What size blade gives a 1/2 inch cut?

The higher the number the shorter the cut. #10 is a puppy cut (very short) #7F is a summer cut. The 7F is able to remove matting without shaving too close. We use the 7F which is about 1/2 inch.

At the deepest part it is 1 1/2 inches. I have a medium sized hand and my knuckles touch the counter top when I rest the blade flat.

As a side note, the inside cutting edge of the blade is about 1 3/4 inches.

I measured the one I got with a metric caliper and the blade measured at 2.1 mm, or .083 inches. That is between 5/64 (.078) and 3/32 (.094). The person who answered 3/16 of inch was either wrong or got one that is more than twice as thick as standard.

If you needed to cut a hole in, or notch a 2x4 this might work but it would not be the most efficient tool for the job. I think the included blade is 1 and 3/4 in. If you want to cut a 2x4 in half, use a skill saw or the trim saw attachment.

if your table saw can cut 3-1/8" with a 10 inch blade, it can only cut to 2-1/8" with this blade, simple math

A millimeter is .040 inches, so a 1-1/2 mm shank is .060, which essentially is 1/16 inch. I don't have specific experience with the DeWalt hand drill, but if it is the typical drill with a 3/8 inch max. diameter shank chuck, the chances are that it will easily accommodate the 1.5 mm shank.

1/4" is the smallest you could get a 3/16 cut with a thin kerf 60 or 80 tooth blade. The 1/4" this set cuts has worked fine for any drawer bottoms I have done. you wont be disappointed with this dado set

Yes. The #10 blade UltraEdge, which cuts 1.5mm. Very short but good for some things.

Oops. Cutting edge is 3 1/8". Messed up measurement. The other measurement is dead on accurate though.

This extreemly useful tool has a blade mounted in it with the cutting edge just a 1/16" shy of 1.5". While it works fine trimming knife sheaths with 3 or 4 layers of thick leather, I never have used it to trim anything close to 1/2 " The tool uses standard old fashoned double edged shaving blades for ease of replacement. I don't believe it would be useful to trim a 1.5" leather piece in one swipe. Good luck in your search. Joe from San Francisco

I have these cutters in sizes 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8" and 1", they all have 1/2" shanks.

The blade is approx. 1.75 inches wide. The cutting edge is approx. 1/4" long. It is not adjustable.

it can only cut to 1/2 the with of the blade if you removed the blade cover and install a larger blade it would

HiYes. I used this saw with the metal cutting bladeto cut through 1/2 inch steel rods.

Hi Mrsxtal, I just measured some I recently purchased. It is about 1.5 16ths of an inch, or slightly more than 2mm. It feels very rigid for that thickness, and is pretty tough to cut with an exacto. Quite a bit easier with a rotary. It is NOT fully 1/8 inch like Elizabeth answers below.

I'm sure it's up to making the cut, but the "in half" part I have to question. How thick is the piece you need to cut? The larger blade is only 5/8" from the edge to the spine that binds it. If the plastic is thicker than that you might need to go with something larger.
