How thick is the blade?

Its the usual thickness that you would come to expect of the average machette. Im not sure to the millimeter how thick, but it I've used it plenty, and the thickness of the blade has never been an issue. It's sturdy and solid. Sorry I cant be more specific, but I hope this helps.

Eighth inch thick. Very sturdy and handles bamboo and smaller tree limbs without issue.

4 or 5 millimeters (compared to a 9mm thick kuhkri). It is thicker than most machete I've seen though it is bendable. Take clean strokes and it works fine.

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

It looked to be 3/16 thick. It's not as thick as my Becker bk2 but very sturdy . I've beat that knife up.

I measured the one I got with a metric caliper and the blade measured at 2.1 mm, or .083 inches. That is between 5/64 (.078) and 3/32 (.094). The person who answered 3/16 of inch was either wrong or got one that is more than twice as thick as standard.

About 7.5 inches overall. Blade is 3.5. Nice grip on handle. Nice thick blade.

From my measurement, the blade is 5mm thick, a nice hefty piece of metal. Minimal edge when shipped, but nothing a grinder and stone can't take care of!

I was surprised to see the knife when it arrived at my house by ups, it was the biggest knife I ever owned almost a machete, as to your question of is it still 1/4 inches thick, I have to say it is close to about 3/16 thick. it is a sturdy knife and I will stand up to the job.

The entire blade is from one piece of damascus steel from tip into the bottom of the handle. I'd say the blade is approximately half a centimeter thick. The whole knife is very hefty! I am very pleased with it!

4mm thick is what it says when you Google it online. It's a solid and we'll built knife! We bought it as one of our first real survival knives and it's amazing. It's solid, sturdy and can take abuse. It's a beautiful knife and we recommend it! I've gotten two more for our kids. I recommend the smooth blade because it holds an edge better then the serrated edge.

I just measured the blade thickness with my micrometer and it says .2 inches.

The blade is 3/16 of an inch. I have used it on a large turkey and it worked well but have found myself using the smaller boning knife it too is 3/16" thick but with less drag do to being high the distance from edge to back.

Well, I don't have anything small enough to measure, but if you are talking about the edge opposite the handle, then I would say pretty darned thin. Could cut you if enough pressure applied but not literally "razor" sharp. Sorry I'm not more help!

The blade is not thin. It is a strong, sturdy piece of steel that will cut through all types of brush and shrubs. I would get the longer blade if I had a chance to do it all over again. Less bending required....

The blade is about 1/4 inch thick, very solid. Great for training or display.

This is from the ka-bar website. the Blade Thickness is 0.165 so it is less than 3/16" thick.
