More Forumite Stats - - - Hand Size

I have a fairly small hand at

A=2.50
B=4.00
C=3.00
D=4.25

Warren
(orono)
 
A= 3"
B= 4.25"
C= 3.5"
D= 5"
E= 2.125"

How about developing an index number? Average all measurements and call it the hand index.
Mine comes out to 3.575

whew...!:(
 
A - 2.75
B - 3.50
C - 3.25
D - 4.10
E - 2.00

Missed it first time around, and finally found my ruler. ;)

Over the years I've kinda quit being so surprised when some fellow with a ham like hand swallows mine when we shake hands as I've always thought I had large hands.
Another thing is I've also became leery of shaking hands with anyone except ndn people.
I was always taught to use a firm handshake, but that's foreign to the ndn people.
And with the advent of the arthritis getting into my hands and fingers it doesn't take much of a firm grip to really hurt me. I've learned to say, "Easy" when someone starts turning on the grip.
But some firm grips have turned into a display of strength and people think with arms like I've got they're really gonna be squeezed.
And as such the word, "assume" is proven again.:)

I'm very careful when shaking hands with the elderly, the ladies and anyone I think might have trouble with their hands since my hands have became as sensitive as they are.
 
Here's my hand measurements.

A = 2.500
B = 4.063
C = 3.250
D = 4.250
E = 1.625

Yvsa,
I understand what you mean about grips. I have a strong grip, but I've never understood the "crusher handshake" that some people give. It's like they have something to prove. A handshake doesn't have to be a crushing contest to be "firm" ... it just doesn't have to be "limp."
 
Brought back to life for the new guys. Post your stats = A, B, C, D & E. I'll put them into the master list and post the results to the first thread.
 
A. 3.00"
B. 4.125"
C. 4.00"
D. 4.50"
E. 2.00"

Thanks Dan. Good idea. Never saw this before.

Regards,

Norm
 
A=2.5
B=3.25
C=3
D=4
E=1.75

judging by some of your beasts i have some pretty flippers:)

Jake
 
A- 2.25
B- 3.188
C- 3.036
D- 4.25
E- 1.688

I actually like the handle size. I guess I just have small hands.
 
A = 3.125
B = 4.25
C = 3.675
D = 5
E = 2.25

In most cases, I have found my um...Khukri hand to be *just* the right size... ;)
