I don't own a caliper. What I do know about this machete is that it (and its olive drab soft nylon sheath with ''US'' imprint) have National Stock Numbers (NSN) assigned by the U.S. General Services Administration, and is approved for purchase by all agencies of the U.S. government with needs for machetes including the military. The hard polymer scabbard is a civilian aftermarket, Chinese-made item, regardless of any [unauthorized] U.S. government markings.

The length between the blade and the wood is one and a half inches. So that is the max thickness you can have. You can make it as thin as you want.

It was bought for a friend whose comment was "it's awesome." Texted her about size of blade and she says she has no idea - maybe 4". I'll try and get more information for you in a day or two. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I bought one a few months back and the cutting surface is about 3/8" thick.

3/4" is plenty of thickness for this setup. It is heavy so use a lot of screws to keep in place.

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.

I belive one inch. Great blade. Will fit on any standard 12" saw. Granted I have a little washer that reduces it to 5/8

No I can't. It is a stard blade for the exactly handle. Why ask for the thickness of the blade?

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.

The blade is very close to 3/16" , I think close to 5mm if you prefer metric, so pretty thick. It is made of stainless steel too just in case you were wondering.

I don't know the exact thickness but it was exactly the same as the Craftsman blade I replaced.

On the bottom of the slicer between the blade and the handle there is a square block 3-1/8"long (8cm) that sits on the same angle as the blade. You rotate it by 1/4 turns it has the numbers 0.5, 1.3, 2.0 and 3.0 which are the thicknesses. I don't know how accurate hey are I just pick the one I want.Martin

Less then 3 1/2 inches. It's a very thick knife. The quality of the knife is incredible for the price. Buy the knife, you will not regret it!

The thickness is maintained over the entire blade length. It is 1/4 inch thick

Actual measured thickness is. 087". It works well with thin kerf blades. I hope this helps.

I just measured mine and it is 1 3/4" from the center. A 3" blade would take a really LARGE pineapple.
