Blaze King "King" owners, how long do you cut your logs?

I need to make up a marking stick to use for cutting my logs, and I know what I've been cutting has been too short. What length do you guys cut your logs to? I'm feeding an older non-cat model.

Thanks!

My stove takes 20 inch splits so I try to cut all logs at 18 inch before splitting.

Thanks. I thought the length was 18" but that was a WAG. I'll make a 54" stick with marks at 18" and 36" and be all set.
