Help me find a special thin knife

[Junkmanme]

I doubt that the blade was 1/4 inch thick. THAT would be a VERY THICK knifeblade.

Perhaps it was only 1/32 inch thick on the backside ( or less).

Oh, my error, I meant that the blade was about 1/4" WIDE, and about 6" LONG. It was not thick at all, but a very narrow light blade. I guess this is a design that once was more popular, but no one is making them any more. I used to see them more often in many dime & dollar stores, now I haven't seen them at all anywhere. Even before I lost my last one I was looking for a spare wherever I shopped, and haven't seen one. I've had others like it in the past, and they always get lost. I am still hoping that someone here will know what I'm talking about and also know a source to still find them. I have always liked the way this type of knife could cut nice straight thin slices of even the ripest tomatoes, and cut a hard-boiled egg in half without squashing it out of shape.

Meanwhile, I'm hoping this eBay purchase will be a good substitute. I'm going to put a LoJack on it.
