I am a noob when it comes to Emerson Knives. I saw a picture of a CQC 7a on another thread on here that sparked my interest in Emerson kinves. I was wondering if all blades are sharpened the same way? For instance, (excuse my ignorance of the proper name of this blade style) I believe the A-100 and CQC 7a are all sharpened like this |\, a non symmetrical edge. Are there any emersons sharpened like this /\, a symmetrical edge?

The CQC-7b (tanto) is a chisel ground blade (ground on one side a totally flat on the other).

The CQC-7a (and A-100) is a V ground blade (ground on both sides) but has a single edge bevel, as do all
Emerson knives weather they are V or chisel ground.
