Bowie:
Ontario SP10 Marine Raider Bowie Knife
ex. Ontario SP10 Marine Raider Bowie knife has a clip-point blade with extra belly. This style was designed by Jim Bowie and made famous in his Sandbar fight in 1827 (look it up). He died fighting from
his sick bed at the Alamo. A courageous man's awesome knife.
Clip-point:
Ka-Bar Short USMC Fighting Knife
ex. KA-BAR USMC fighting knife has a clipped (concave) back to make the tip thinner and sharper and therefore better at piercing, picking, and cutting in tight places. An excellent combat knife. Most fighting and survival knives are clip-points.
Drop Point:
Zero Tolerance Ranger Green Folder, SpeedSafe # 0301
