BM 710 Dimensions

[Kennyroo]

Hi,

I can't find a store in Canada where I can handle a BM 710. Could someone please fill in the following dimensions for me so I can get a better feel for the size of the knife?

Thanks in advance.

Blade Length = 3.9"
Blade Thickness = 0.115"
Blade Depth = ??
Handle Length = 4.9"
Handle Thickness (wout clip) = ??
Handle Depth (knife open) = ??
Overall Knife Depth (knife closed) = ??

Thanks,

Kenny

i'd be happy to fill these in. i'm just scratching my head at the term "depth"... maybe my brain is collapsing once again, but i don't get the definition.

Blade Depth = ??Varies due to the contouring of the blade. Mine is .825" at its widest along the length of the blade. It has been reprofiled many times, but that should give you an idea. .95" across at the start of the blade.
Handle Thickness (wout clip) = ??.48"
Handle Depth (knife open) = ??Varies with the contouring of the handle. ~1.34" at the widest(thumbramp/front of index finger) .88" at the thinnest(about an inch back from the pivot), except for where it curves down at the butt.
Overall Knife Depth (knife closed) = ??Same as the handles for the most part. The blade only adds to the width in the inward curve of the handle. The last 1 1/4" of the blade is within the handle, and the first part of the blade does not extend further than the scales, so does not add to the overall width. 1.2" at the thumbstuds when closed.
