In Canada and the US, the porterhouse is a composite steak that has both tenderloin and top loin on a T shaped bone. If the tenderloin is less than 1.25 inches (32 mm) wide at its widest, it's a T-bone steak. You are right about the Rib-Eye though.

[@bringingonbreakdown]

You are correct.

[@lweismann]

We also called a sirloin. Porterhouse has a large section of tenderloin on one side of the bone in the sirloin on the other side of the mall, if it has a small tip of the tenderloin, it’s called a T-bone steak.

[@deojnwedofuWE]

I wish there was a standardising of steak cut names, as implausible as that would be. I once had a meal in an Argentinian restaurant with people from Argentina, Germany and Britain (me) and trying to convey what cut equated to what across a language barrier was impossible

In America that’s a NY strip steak. A sirloin is something else, where you can get either a bottom or top sirloin cut.
