XXL size

Dear All,

I recently visited St.Augustine, and once again I was somewhat surprised to see statues and records of spanish soldiers, with the height of some of those warriors being 4'9".

I'm 6'6" (well a little bit less), and I always had a problem - most of the weapons I have do not fit in my hand. Holding something with D-guard is usually out of the question and I usually do not sharpen the lower portion of my kindjals, because my fingers usually rest partially on the blade.

That brings the question - how many XXL size weapons are out there ? Is hand and a half can be considered an XXL hand ? I've seen some monster kindjals with 8 inches long hilts, but all other weapons I've seen have been a disappointment in terms of size.
