Hi MMullins.

The random match I pulled and measured was just under 2" (it was 1" and 15/16ths). There is some irregularity consider how big the head is and how long the stick is.

Mine are also NOT strike anywhere, so you'll have to remember to leave room for the striker too. I use a matchsafe built by K&M industries. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> They fit the criteria (tough, machined and cool).
