Tanto grind of GB?

[#16 452]

On a flat ground GB how sharp is the point grind?It doesn't look like it would be sharp from the transition to the point of the blade on the tanto point is ground like I've never seen before . I'm concerned if it's as sharp as the rest of the knife before I order mine from TADGear.com

I don't have a GB, but I do have 4 other Strider Tanto blades and they are all less sharp on the tip than the main part of the blade.

My flat ground GB is plenty sharp up their I don't want my flesh in the way.Chris Hansen are yours flat grid or hollow my hollow are less sharp up front than the F/G.

 

[A. Hansen]

3 flat grinds(mini Strider-Buck folder, lg. Strider-Buck folder, BT)and 1 hollow grind (WP2-T). OF the 4 the BT has the sharpest tip but it is still not hair shaving sharp like the main blade.

you should see the edge I can put on a cottonball let alone the G10 on that baby! J/K in all reality I ise the tip of my knives more than the rest of the blade. It looks liek I have something to test those new hones on.
