Blades come in numerous varieties designed to carry out an assortment of tasks. More often than not, the decision to buy a certain type of knife is motivated by the type of blade it offers. The edges are either straight or serrated. Straight edge knives are more popular because they are easier to sharpen and cut cleanly. On the other hand, serrated edges are well suited for sawing jobs.
You should choose this type of blade if your objectives include chopping and slicing. Its edges extend from the base arching towards the tip (similar to an ordinary bread knife and a Leather Knife Roll). Commonly used for camping and fishing activities, the clip point is designed for handling light duty tasks (due to thinness). The blades are cupped on both the backside and cutting edge. The two sides converge at the tip.
