Here's a little excersize that will give you the answer. I want you to go to the rule book and find the 12" striking surface rule. I'll give you a hint: 12" is correct. But that's the only part you have right.

1.4.1.5. The minimum overall length of a Class 1 is 12 inches plus the length of the handle and pommel.

i always mess this up, but there is no minimum striking surface, just that it is 12 inche splus handle and pommel. you could have a 20 inch weapon, 2 inch pommel, 6 handle, 8 haft and 4 striking. like in the case of an axe.

I see what you did there. No that little gem is for the special kind of special. Like people who don't want to test weapons from a realm that doesn't test weapons.

Thanks, I'm not sure where I got the strike surface thing...maybe I've been using DAP too much today while indoors *@ What I have (mostly) made at this point fits well withing those parameters :3
