How thick is your B??

[thatmguy]

Guess the title says it all.

Mine mic's just over .270.

Killer B's here for those still learning the jargon.

I really need to get a micrometer!

No micrometer here either, but I will check my B with a ruler & tape measure this evening and let you know.

Me too. Where can I get one and how much are they?

I use a Lyman Dial Caliper that's good to .001. Good enuff for what I use it for. Or go to Home Depot, Lowes or the like. A decent one will be $20 or less. You can spend more, but if you're not a machinest, you don't need it.

Don't remember what my naked B was, but it was thicker than .25. Stout lil sucker.

Don't have a Killer B - or a micrometer! :grumpy:

I checked my Killer B against a NO-E, DTAS, EU17 #10 and Mag-EU17 #8; they were all the same width according to my non-scientific measurements. (place blades spine to spine and feel for a difference with thumb and index finger)
According to a 2003 post by Jerry these were all 1/4". Post #40 - http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=242540&highlight=pure+killer
