This is exactly why I didbt buy this blade....on Victas own website the FL handle for the ZC is listed at 100mm and the ST as 97mm.....I cannot for the life of me understand why manufacturers do this to us people with larger grips...

Are you serious ? Do you realize how small 3 mm is in the context of a blade handle ? For visual reference the maximum rubber thickness is 4.05 mm .
How huge are your hands exactly ?

Reminds me of people who complain about opponents not tossing the ball high enough.
Minimum required 16 cm or 160 mm toss is not much. It is only the height of the net or width of a standard blade (racket)

To be very clear, 3 mm makes a huge difference in the width or length of the blade (especially for a defensive player) & of course rubber thickness or blade thickness but I do not see a huge difference in handle length.
