Why a swedge or clip point with false edge, makes no sense??

I don't consider a false edge as definitively sharp or unsharpened. I've handled many knives labeled as having an false edge by custom makers that were incapable of delivering a cut with out a precipitous fall on to said false edge from a great height. Many custom makers disagree on this issue, and many will specify unsharpened false edge or sharpened.

Just because some custom makers are ignorant of correct terminology, that doesn't change the definition.
 
Personally, I just like the look of a swedge. I certainly wouldn't want a sharpened edge on the spine of my pocket knife.
