I came across this recently, and thought how very useful it could be; as long as one can remember it all.
I have tried it, and it is pretty accurate. The only one which was a bit off (for me) was the distance between little finger and thumb (bottom Left). Mine measured 20 cms, not 23; but maybe I've shrunk a bit.
Copy, print, and keep in your inside pocket/handbag. It's bound to come in useful, and you can thank me for it later.

Hmmmm Too much is already stuffed in my brain. And my pockets. But thank you so much Cro for posting this essential information
Mine are all in inches
Throw caution to the winds Potty, try using centimetres. They're more fun; you get more of them!
Surely you've got room for just a little bit more. This is good info!
I know them in inches, they are very handy (no pun intended) when I am sewing and gardening, they are good measurements.
This is the first I've seen them. I shall do my best to remember everything, but I'm not too confident!
Doesn't work for me ... may need to knock a few cm off those measurements,!
what a good idea. Unfortunately my hands are too small. Must be a mans hand.
Draw you own pictures, and take you own measurements. QED.
I think you're right, but even with my hands it wasn't quite accurate.
The distance between the tip of my little finger and thumb is 24 centimetres. Happily, this means that I could beat you in a fist fight about Jacob Rees-Mogg or tinned jack mackerel. Oomph! Oomph! "Take that you bounder!"
You forget that I do a very good knee to the Crown Jewels. That would eclipse your right jab.
1 to 10 centimetres measured very accurately with first 2 fingers of right hand after years in Midwifery.
