My blade is 3/16" thick x 5 1/4" long. I've taken it on 2 different camping trips, and abused it badly, making baton cuts across 4-6" seasoned hard maple, did quite a bit of splitting, carving, and lots of other things as well.You have one hellofa good survival knife here, I'd trust my life on it

8" diameter 3/4" thick. Too much work? It takes about two passes on each side of the blade on each wheel to put a razor sharp edge on a knife. Takes about 30 seconds! I run a full time taxidermy shop, there are NO OTHER sharpeners in the shop since I bought my wheels about 8 years ago.

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.

Not sure of the exact thickness of the blade but if you're worried abut the blade being flimsy don't be, this is the real deal. The tip or point is not fragile, in fact there is nothing fragile about this knife whatsoever, go ahead and buy with peace of mind.

The blade is ~5.5" long. I will admit that as a lefty it is difficult to use even though it is a double edge blade....but it does cut well!

About 24" long, blade is probably about 8" wide, very lightweight but strong for it's size and It works great in tight areas. P. S. My gardener loves it!

For a carving knife it slices about a 1/4 inch thick but not any thinner than that. It really isn't meant to cut super thin as it is really for carving London Broil, Ham, Prime Rib, Turkey etc. If you are wanting very thin slices I don't believe you will be happy with this knife. It has a pretty thick blade to begin with. It is an excellent carving knife for the price and well made.

I believe it's about 3/4" thick. It has a good weight. I bought two. Not a bad blade, and opens great. I didn't pay attention to the screws, on the first knife, and it fell apart. The faux wood handle fell off too. Still, if you perform regular checks, and tighten the screw as needed, the knife should last. Again, the blade nice.

The blade is just about 8". It's ok. Not great. Can be found in most supermarkets.

The blade is 4 1/2 inches. These are very sharp knives. They are kind of light weight, but work very well.

It's pretty thick. I've never measured it but it's substantial. The blade edge isn't all that though. If you're not doing tough tasks it will be fine and mine came razor sharp. I messed up the edge pretty bad butchering deer. I would have expected better.

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
