My calipers report 0.36". It's one of the Blade Show 2014 exclusive "Garth" edition MOAB's, which are a bit skinnier than the typical CG MOAB. What a chopper!
 
That MOAB looks awesome-Thanks for Sharing

I decided to play with the big boys this afternoon, specifically the CGFBM, NMFBM, and MOAB. I had some leftover 1x6 pressure treated decking that I wanted to do some chop chop on, because I knew that the wood is so consistent I would really be able to tell the differences in the chopping power of the knives. I started with the CGFBM and it did great. I have played around with that blade quite a bit in the woods and it feels at home in my hand. The next up was the NMFBM, which was a recent acquisition on the exchange. It performed amazingly! The chopping was definitely superior to the CGGFM, but they both performed great and were in the same league. Next up was the MOAB. Oh my Damn!!!!! I'm in love with this thing! The bite is deep and effortless (if you can call swinging about 3 pounds of INFI effortless), it just chews the wood up unlike any other knife I have every used. I probably chopped through the 1x6 decking 4-5 times each with the CGFBM and NMFBM, but I couldn't put the MOAB down. I probably chopped through about two dozen times with the MOAB. I'm actually pretty much in awe of it. Of course now that I have stopped I realize how tired my hand and forearm are. If I keep this up I'll be looking like Popeye.

Long story short, if you are on the fence, go and get yourself a MOAB! Here are a couple pics I snapped with my phone.

The skeleton key cut right through the slow cooked pork chops. The mashed Yukon gold potatoes will always be my favorite...
 
That looks tasty Breavis, you should have used your Moabolo though!

I cut a pie this weekend with it.... I couldn't bare the stupid look she gave me for that. I can only imagine what looks I would get if I sat down with the Moabolo. For arguments sake I'll do it next time

You just had to show me an anorexic MOAB. Is it after midnight on a crappy cable channel? Or are we NOT watching a movie?
 
I think its time for another Ganzaaa....
Cupidganzaa was my 1st one, i only got SWATmandu....
now im ready for The MOAB
 
Did a little batoning with the battle saw for some kindling. Does anyone else feel like the blades with horizontal CBT baton better? Maybe a little less surface area and friction going through?

 
B8 performed well. It is such a good chopper for it's size. Just cleared some underbrush and hanging vines
