I'd say so, look at the spine at the jimping vs in front of it. That thing's almost half as thick.

That exactly what I was seeing/thinking, I like it. Probably the main reason I dont carry mine much is the lack of slicey-ness :D

Yup got it reground to 2 mm spine. I sold my first techno due to the thickness. This one slices better then my stock chaparral :D

Did you for some reason grind off the flipper on your mantra? Why?

Not a fan of flippers in general and the flipper tab made the handle too small, it's perfect now :)

Could someone please post a comparison of GB Air vs Centofante Memory and maybe vs Dragonfly and Delica.

I love my DF but it's just a bit too small so I'm looking for a gentlemen-ish folder to replace it...

Here's my first stab at one of these. I had to hold the Centofante Memory up because it is a little too heavy on the clip side to stay on its own.

Nice shots. I wasn't aware the Memory was as big as it is (Delica sized). I thought it was more along the size of the Air.
