Hunting vs. Survival

[Bumppo]

A survival knife has one qualification a hunting knife does not. The survival knife is the one on you when you are in a survival situation. The hunting knife is the one you left at home, and you wished you had with you when you don't have it on you.

The tip of an upswept blade is inherently weak, something you don't want in a survival situation. The best design in a survival blade is a drop point, which is exactly what the Fallkniven F1 has. Tantos, spear points, clip points, warncliffs, all are weaker at the tip than a drop point.
Hope this helps.

Tantos and spear points? Tantos do not have a weak point, or so I thought.
