Hi Jack, I believe the blade is 2.7 inches. That is what the literature says.

The blade is 6" wide and 2" deep (from front to back) Best garden tool I've ever had esp with the ability to change from a long handle to a short handle.

Bout 16-18". Its a great blade just the handles are string. They fell apart very easily.

The body is slightly over 4" wide and the cutting surface is 3.5" wide. Anything wider than 3.5" may need to be cut or rotated to slice. I love it, but be very careful!! I had band-aids all over my hands until I got used to it. The holder that comes with it isn't the most practical. I never use it and am especially careful when cutting.

Hi...the blade is 3 1/2 inches long. I had to buy our 3 children each one of these knives after they used mine. We all love it!

It's about a quarter inch wide U shaped blade. I think it's like size 4 or something like that but the tip is about quarter inch

The blade is approximately 6".Very well made knife, a little heavier than I expected. But the blade holds a great edge, and will give you a lifetime of use.

Sorry, I just noticed your question. The "width" of the knife closed at the widest is 1-3/8". Hope this helps and once again, sorry for the late response.

About as wide as the blade, about 1/8". About the width of the grout in older bathroom tile. Used it to cut the grout line under tile line in a swimming pool for easier removal to prevent damage to marble plaster. At the time of use during summer of 2014, could not find exactly 4-3/8" blades at Lowe's, but could use whatever the standard is which I think is 4-1/2" Diamond wet cut. ALWAYS use the water hose attachment as not to burn out your blades too soon. Was also able to use it to cut 2" think slabs of soft Indiana limestone. Not all the way through, but enough to make a break line. Was very satisfied with it, but needed extra blades. Did not understand the gimmack of a 4-3/8" blade when 4-1/2" is the standard in the major hardware stores. Hope this helps.

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

The blade is 1/8 inch thick. The blade width is 4 inches wide closest to the handle. The strap on the case is not sturdy.

I appreciate the time you took to try and help though that doesn't tell me at all what the width of the blade is. Width is how wide is is. This answer explains the depth of cut

The blade is 1 13/16" wide or just a hair more than 1 3/4". It fits in the wide slots of the Wusthof knife block.

Not very wide. I bought a bread knife and its too thick. Cuts the plastic. We use a wedding cake knife that has a sedate edge

The blade measures 5 1/4" x 2 1/4" and is slightly convex. The actual cutting surface measures 3 1/4" x 1 3/4".
