I've always heard that a "blood" groove made the blade stronger.

Stiffer maybe, not necessarily stronger.

Its called a fuller, it lightens the blade as well as giving more surface area to take stress, like a steel I-beam. i used to think about how it was a blood grove that relived suction etc, until i got in to knife making.
