i noticed a similar blade shape on these two knives and wanted to post as a point of discussion. Tried to post comparison pics of the two but can't figure out how. Could one of you forum experts do this? Pics worth a thousand words for an interesting comparison.

I think the Emerson said the Chopstick's blade shape was inspired by Japanese kitchen knives like the Santoku, I imagine the Bombshell may have had some similar inspiration.

The modified sheepsfoot on each is a fairly common blade shape, the Benchmade 550 Griptilian and CRK Insignio blades are similar, but not quite as tall as both of the ones above.
