CAD/Cast and narrow shanks

[proto]

Didn't wan tto hijack someone else's thread but also wanted some further views from the forum

Handforged will allow you to get to 1.8 mm and still have the durability you need. I don't recommend ANY CAD and CAST setting at a shank width below 2.0. But handforged is different. Stronger.

Any further views/advice?

Slightly worried about the setting I purchased now because I think its a split shank at 1.6mm each.

Its 900/100 Pt Ir in case it makes any difference. Non-refundable custom.

I've had split shank done by CAD/cast that thin and it isn't an issue because the length of the split isn't long and it has a fairly strong support on both ends. The main concern about thinness is the shank that goes around under the finger.
