ok I got a cqc7-a,spearpoint plain edge,green g-10.The catalog and site say double v grind on this model,but mine has a chisel grind.Whats up with this? A new option not listed yet? Thanks.
 
the "a" versions are a double V grind, but sharpened on one side only. kinda like a half a$$ chisel grind. I used to not like it, but now I do. seems to stay sharp longer, it is easier to sharpen (only one side) and the edge is stronger.
it is just different at first, you'll get used to it.
cheers,

Well I think I got it now.When they say double ground,they mean the back of the blade is not flat on one side like the tanto,but the edge is still a one side grind.When I think of chisel grind I think of an edge ground on one side and double grind to mean an edge ground on both sides,oh well still like the knife.
