How thick is the knife? Is is comfortable to wear inside boots?

Depends on the boot: work boots sure it'll fit. But it can't be a low cut boot or else it won't fit inside. Low cut boots that are like regular shoes are fitied down to the centimeter but work boots or hiking boots have extra room to strap your knife on. Hope this helps. And the thickness of the knife isn't that thick but it's made in China so I'm very disappointed.... Ifeel I were you I'd get anew American made boot knife. It's a shame smith and Wesson is outsourcing to China.

probably 5/8" at the thickest park of handle. sheath clip is at mid way point, so there would be a lot of knife handle flapping around above boot.

I bought 2 of them. Both came out of the box's sharp and ready to use. they are a little on the light weight side but quality is there. No issue with them staying in the sheath inside the boots. Can't say on the thickness, but for everyday wear and use I like them. Blade might break if you are really trying to pry open heavy objects. This knife is not for the hunter who would rely on his knife for sole survival. Nice everyday knife that can stand up to daily use.

If you're talking about combat boots -- no I don't think I'd find it comfortable. If you're talking about cowboy boots, it might. But when wearing inside the cowboy boot I use the benchmade stiletto -- more of a self-defense only or sandwhiches in a pinch. This S&W; is certainly beyond just self defense and thinner than a gerber combat stilleto, so maybe yes.

Yes, it is. It is a nice knife. I like it, only thing the screws were a little bit loose. I lost one but was able to get it back on. Maybe you could screw them on tighter as soon as you get yours.

I gifted this knife to my son-in-law now serving fourth tour in Aganistan; he loves it. The knife is heavy, thick and hair shaving sharp. Great for hacking, chopping or what ever the need, good quality and value hope this helps.

Yes. This knife is awesome by the way. The sheath is made of thick leather. The knife is made very well and comes packaged well.

It's thicker than a standard pocket knife. I think it will fit in a pocket fine, but there will be will be little room for anything else.

Pretty damn thick. I'd say 3/16" at least. It's been good to me for the last 2 years. Get the kydex sheath if you can.The low end nylon sheath is crap. But the knife itself is really good stuff.

It is a little on the LARGE size for a Boot / Ankle knife. THe Secure x sheath that come with it could be easily belted or banded to the leg.

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.

Not sure of exact thickness maybe 3-5mm. The pictures of this knife do not represent it well. It is very small, to the point it feels dangerous and impractical. I sent mine back immediately.

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.

I don't think I can answer your question with a simple yes or no. In most cases what is comfortable is a very subjective judgment. I am 5 foot nine, with average sized hands. I have had a knife in my pocket or on my belt for more than 60 years. More often than not that knife has been a buck. This is one of my favorite Buck knives, I find the shape, size & weight a good fit for pocket carry, but I often belt carry as well. Will you like it as MUCH I? I CAN'T SAY, BUT I THINK I'D BE A BIT SURPRISED IF YOU DID NOT!

The blade is pretty thick, I measured it to be about a eighth of an inch which is larger than all my other knifes. It is very sturdy, razor sharp, and hasn't let me down yet.

I just went to Cold Steel web site and they say it is 3/16 of an inch thick and I measured the top flat edge of my knife and it is 3/16 of an inch thick.

Not for me. I use mine regularly for work and so far so good, its comfortable enough. The only thing with the majority of these knives is the flimsy little crappy screws that never stay in that hold the clip. This knife is no exception.

The blade thickness is 0.19". The knife is very sturdy and thick enough to use in most situations in outside survival. My son has been very satisfied with the performance of the knife.
