I don't make knives for a living, but of course I want to make knives that people want to buy. So I want to know which of the patterns below you would be more eager to buy and which ones not so much. The camera kind of squished the image left-right, so this picture makes the patterns look shorter than they really are.

The top two bars have a thickness of .094" and the bottom bar is .125".

For the top row, first one on the left, I have shaped the tip in two different ways in the past:

Top row, all the way to the right:

Middle row, second from the left would come out something like this:

Bottom row, second from the left would come out something like this:

Thanks for chiming in. Of course, I have not started cutting patterns into steel yet, so I can "erase" anything that I have drawn and draw something else in its place.
