I'd like to get the blade width on the most current model of the Leatherneck SF.

Is it wider than the regular Kabar with 7" blade ?

Any info would be appreciated.

I believe the 7 inch KA-BAR is 4.19mm while the CS Leatherneck SF is 5mm.
 
width being spine to bevel edge or thickness?
 
The top to bottom blade width not the stock thickness.

had these close by. 7" kabar and tanto version leatherneck. this one is fairly new production, less than a year. I've compared the normal clip point to the tanto in the past and they are basically the same dimensions that we are talking about. hope this answers your question?

anyways answer is a little bit about 1/16th"....but that could just be sharpening tolerances allowed showing through there.

Thanks for the pics!
Seeing the comparison is very helpful.
How do you like the Leatherneck compared to the Kabar?

yes Sir.

I like both for different reasons. im not a big fan of d2 though. I dont prefer it to the 1095 crovan. it isnt terrible though and works enough. the leatherneck is well made for the price point though and I wouldn't feel bad if its all I had.
