Clip point blades are the more traditional hunting knife. On the whole, they'll penetrate skin more quickly and smoothly, but that doesn't necessarily make them better. Clip point blades are made with a convex spine that arches down from the handle to the point.

In contrast, the spine of a drop point blade begins like a clip point blade before "dropping" in a concave arch to the knife's tip. Drop point blades may feel less precise, but they're almost always a sturdier option. The knife's backbone is an impressively sharp D-2 tool steel blade. The rubberized handle has an ergonomic grip that allows for precision when gutting game. You should consider the Elk Hunter Suregrip fore its versatility.

The sturdy design of this drop point hunting knife means it's wide, great for tasks like disjointing and prying. Like most other drop points, it has a shorter blade (3.25-inch), allowing you to cut precisely. This shorter design also reduces the chance of unintentionally puncturing the stomach or intestines while you're field dressing your kill. For the no-frills hunter, a drop point knife is a phenomenal option, and the Elk Hunter Suregrip is a phenomenal drop point. Most Innovative American Made Design.
