Is the blade length measured from the tang or is it the sharpened portion?

Is this geared toward legal limit or what knife makers actually consider to be the way to measure? Personally, I always go the way most LEOs look at it, tip of blade to handle or guard.

I think Mick measures from the top handguard or where it would be to determine blade length. Not sure though, so don't quote me on that.

We consider anything from the front surface of the guard forward to be blade, and from the same point rearward to be handle. Thanks for your interest,
