What's your favorite blade shape?

[chibicascade]

I really want to find a nice 3.5 to 4 inch clip point folder for edc.
I really do like my Buck Vantage, but it's more of a drop point.

I'll be the weirdo and say karambit

assassin knife of choice...wouldn't mind owning a spyderco version of it. I like drop point and tanto...bowie is my least favorite actually.

I have a couple extra leaf springs, I want to make a knife but I'll save that for another thread.

I've got one, and it's pretty bad ass. Hard to find and expensive when you do, since it was discontinued quite a while back.

My step father-in-law had one in his store a couple years back...you can't go wrong with any spyderco, however, I probably wouldn't want to carry it around...too bad.

[loudninja]

big fan of rick hinderer's blade shapes

 

[Limpy88]

[gemihur]

I use a spey for every use but it's intended.

 

[astenftenagel]

I used to like drop points. then I bought a gerber with a tanto blade. I love it

 

[Black Cloud]

Love my tanto, but I really, really want a full-sized Kukri. Dunno why, but they just look badaise.

 

[warthog]

Dagger shaped, like a traditional dagger, V shaped and double edged.
I have a ton of good ones too, love them.

Single edged I would go with a lambsfoot and wharnies.

I am also quite fond of Karambits and have many traditional ones as well as some not so traditional including a few folders.

 

[tt5stargeneral]

Drop point, plain blade (not serrated), full flat grind. As long as an edge is sharp, I generally see no need for serrations, plus they are difficult to sharpen for us non-experts.

 

[saleen4971]

loves me some tanto - pref. not serrated.

Drop point.

 

[meegz]

Drop point or spear point, usually drop point. You can vary the depth of the belly on the drop point enough to make it quite good for most situations
