The first time I noticed the shape was when Loveless showed it as "Simi Skinner". I then saw a remarkably similar Morseth "Semiskinner". Then, more recently as a form of a "Nessmuk". All have about 3.5-inch blades with a slightly upswept curving blade with a decided point that appears to be centered as a definite tip. Loveless and Morseth versions have a decided finger guard. So it's not exactly a skinning shape, not exactly a drop point. The shape kind've appeals to me aesthetically but I don't understand where it would excel.
I will appreciate people who have used the blade on deer, elk, and other larger game animals to describe its utility or, in advertising lingo, its "unique selling feature". What lurks in my mind is that this is ideal and I've been blind to its incredible usefulness as a field tool. But ideal how?
