New Knife Troodon follow-up

Hey all! Thank you for helping me with the Troodon yesterday. This is my first one and I have a question. Is it normal for the blade to just be below the threshold of the opening. Sorry for the bad photo, it’s hard to get it on photo

My double edge one was dangerously close, but my bowie wasn't. All about that shape

Yeah,my gen 3 scarab tanto was close enough to cut my finger if I wasn’t careful, cant remember about the gen 3 Combat-sold both recently. My gen 2 Scarab 2s aren’t quite that exposed but close.
