What is the width and thickness of the blade?
313380
Width is 2 1/4 inches and thickness is 1/2 inch. The thickness is due to a supporting bar running the length of the blade to support the blade itself. Blade is 1/16th of an inch and the length of the cutting blade is 17 inches.

The bar consists of three parts seated flat against each other; a supporting piece of channel iron 5/8 x 5/16", and two flat pieces of steel that slide back and forth over each other to cut like a barbers shears. Each of the latter two are about 1/16" thick X 2 1/4" wide. It readily cuts green twigs 1/2 to 9/16" diameter but has to chew away at dry twigs the same size.

The blade is 4 3/4" long by 1/8" thick with a very useful (especially for survival) 15/16" wide blade profile. Ideal for any use you can think of.

Blade thickness is 0.188". I don't have the knife with me right now so I'm not sure about the width, but the blade is 8" long if that helps put it into perspective. I would say that even though it is marketed as a "camp" knife it certainly is comparable to a tanto (not Americanized tanto) combat knife. It is an awesome slasher and cutter. The blade shape does remind one of a traditional tanto. I have mine in my bug out bag.

The blade is very close to 3/16" , I think close to 5mm if you prefer metric, so pretty thick. It is made of stainless steel too just in case you were wondering.

The blade is not too thick, but I don't have a way to measure it. The knife is fairly big as it is so the thickness is not noticable.

From my own measuring of my BM 581: If you measure from where the sharpened edge starts, the blade is about 3.5 inches or 8.9 centimeters long. Measuring from where the steel becomes visible from the handle, it's closer to 3.75 inches or 9.7 centimeters.

I measured the blade with a ruler, and its almost 2 inches. Maybe an inch and 5/8. Hope this helps.

Blade is 3 1/2 inches, handle is 4 1/2.8 inches total length with knife open

I would tell you the dimensions but am unable to since I no longer have it. I used it maybe 3 times successfully. On the fourth use the blade shattered into five pieces. Each of the 4 blades separated from the square hub area. That leads me to believe it's just poor quality metal that caused the failure and not any manufacturing defect. My best advice is to spend more elsewhere on a better quality blade.

Blade is 1/8 inch thick, so it is nice and firm. Nice weight too. Very pleased with mine!!!

Blade thickness is 1/4 inch. You can process small pieces of wood up 3" in diameter and with some work make feather sticks. Hope this helps.

The thickness at the spine of the blade and for about 1/3 width of the blade is 1/4"

5.0 mm -1075 HIGH CARBON STEEL is the thickness of the spine. I have never measured the width of the blade.

It was bought for a friend whose comment was "it's awesome." Texted her about size of blade and she says she has no idea - maybe 4". I'll try and get more information for you in a day or two. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Measured with a micrometer, the maximum width of the sharpened part of the blade is 1.626 inches. The maximum thickness of the blade (which is constant) is .255 inches.

The blade measures about 3-5/8" long, about 9/16" wide, and about 3/32" thick. The handle is about 4-11/16" long, about 5/8" wide at the widest point, and just under 1/4" thick. The overall length is about 8-3/8". The handle, being thicker and longer, is heavier than the blade, so the balance point is about 3" from the end of the handle going toward the blade. I hope this helps.

The blade is about 5.5" long & all together about 11" long. The blade width is about a 1".
