It really comes to personal preference and thats that - fool around with both and see what works better for you personally. On top of that, play around with the thickness of your convex and V grinds - that can make a big difference as well.
Also consider using different grinds for different tasks - my thin edged slicers are kept convex and excel at this task - but they roll pretty easily once they hit hard stuff.
I find for me, the V grind is a better all arounder and easiest for me to maintain as I'm not the best sharpener...

The only RAT that is a Saber grind is the RC-5, the rest are full flat grinds.
You can convex the edge of any grind. Most wind up doing it by accident anyway..
Nice link, thanks!
Most people speak of grinds and are usually talking about the secondary grind.
