While shopping on line for a CQ-7 today I noticed they were available in two different grinds. A chisel grind and a V-grind? Could someone please tell me the pros and cons of each? Thanks

Different Grinds?

Alright, you guys correct me if I'm wrong (as I know you will) but here goes. The CQC-7B is only offered in true chisel grind. This means that the right side of the blade is flat with the other side having both bevels. The CQC-7A is only offered with both sides of the blade being beveled, but with the edge still being a chisel grind. Either way, they are both still chisel ground edges, just the blade geometry is a little different.

Correct, but I would add that the CQC7A is Spearpointed, "V" ground with a chisel ground edge.
The CQC7B is a Tanto and is true chisel ground (aka flat on the off side).
