Tanto point vs. Clip point cutting ability

[alfred tan]

Any opinions on which will cut better? The tanto seem to be easier to sharpen than the clip points on a stone.

From experience with numerous real tantos, there are non with points that have an straight acute angle. Chisles yes, tantos no.

thats a good question, after just looking at the 2 blade shapes ya would think the spear(or clip)point is better but after using the knives imho the tanto is better, and way easier to sharpen also. probably isnt a lot of diff, but i would go w/the tanto myself. thats comparing a I&I tanto or SOCFK to a spear point spec-war,
