So the blade is about 10 1/2", taking into account the thickness of the guard? Bill really is a great guy, and his feel for the mechanics of knives and how an individual knife fits a single person is pretty amazing.

No the thickness of the guard is not added to the blade length. Bill really is great guy, and his understanding and feel of the mechanics is second to none.

Enjoy a great knife :)
