American Tanto vs Double Edge Dagger

[Dr Heelhook]

The one with the curved edge and sharpened swedge looks like a better knife.

edit: Unless you're considering a Charlie Mike piece of course. Then go with that.

You mean there is nothing mystical about it?

Nope, just physics.

Nope, just physics.

It’s all just Physics, no one has yet to change that!

While I like the stuff CM and we are friends. The Americanized Tanto sucks as a Skinning cutting tool imo.

You are correct. But I'll bet the number of times this knife is called upon for a "skinning task" is effectively zero.

Charlie Mike's Full Dress Stealth Etch Tanto gets my vote.

The compound (Lum) spanto is also available, currently gluing up with black linen micarta and same stainless pins.
