what is the blade length, width &amp; thickness. Why is this 2 pounds lighter (3 lb) than the BHS-32 (5 lb)?

The blade is 12inches long, 3 1/4 inches wide and just under 1/4 inch thick. I don't know which one you're comparing it to but some of the wooden handled versions mount the blade differently. Maybe that accounts for the difference.

The blade thickness is 0.10 inch. Please consider This That & WhatNots for your future purchases!!

It's a 3-inch blade, so a rather small knife. About the same blade length as, say, a Kershaw Leek... but much lighter. There is also a 2-inch version, but this is the 3-inch.

Hi Don...the blade length is 3.7 inches. It is in stock and I can ship it on Monday if you are interested.Scott

Quite a bit lighter. This knife really does not have that thick hilt of the Wusthof. I would compare the weight and feel to be more like a Victronox or Forschner. I like the feel of both of those knives but I really LOVE the feel of the Shun.

Nope, it's a fixed blade, solid 5160 steel. It weighs a ton. I love mine though, and the sheath is workable.

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.

Just weighed mine. It is 2lb 3.5oz (1.005kg for us metric folk) with the sheath, 2lb 1.70oz (0.956 kg) without the sheath.

I'm traveling and don't have the knife with me, so I can't be certain, but I believe it's 3 5/8". It's a substantial blade - you can do some work around the ranch with it. It also has a fairly deep belly and would make a decent skinner.

I just eyeballed mine at 2.75" so the 2.65" must be the actual. For sure not the 2". The handle will hold up fine. I just use mine as a pocket knife. While my end use isn't what I would consider heavy I suspect it would hold up under such conditions. Good looking and does its job.

The Cold Steel catalog came today!! Talk about good timing. Blade thickness on the ATC is listed at at 2.8 millimeters.

total length=44cm, blade length=29.5cm, blade width at base=4.4cm, blade thickness=3mm. Weight-?

The blade thickness is .156 or 4mm. One of Spyderco's thicker bladed knives in their current line up as far as I know.

Very similar but mini specs show it weighs a tad more. Handles are also slightly different. Same blade lengths.

Hi C. Jones. The blade length is closer to 2.75" actually, and the handle has held up really well. I keep it in my back pocket, sit on it, toss it around, and it's holding up nicely. The wood feels nice too. Hope that helps.

I have never measured blade thickness but it is close to 1/32". Flexing of the blade shouldn't be a problem since it is designed to cut on the pull stroke. I have enjoyed using mine. It leaves a much smoother cut edge than traditional push stroke saws (even the Gentleman's Dovetail saw). Hope this helps.
