Big workhorse of a knife. Starts at 6.5mm out of the handle with some taper down to the tip. Spine is stiff giving a big presence on the board. Spine and choil are nicely rounded which helps with the weight. Bevels are flattened and polished. Decent sharpness out of the box but this is a fun project knife. Never sharpened or stropped.
