11.5 cm should be enough for an average sized human. I always imagined these were for up close and personal use with a sewing machine like thrust. If I remember correctly Levine said the folding vendetta knives didn't have a release for the blade's locking mechanism. So, I have always assumed the knife was left with the victim. Both points are pure speculation.

DavidR good eye about the bolster.

I am nearly sure that the bolster is always integral!
