Spear point??? Wouldn't both front edge and back need to be symmetrical? (like arrows and spears, old school bayonets. lends it's self to piercing) Mind you that's my opinion, if Vic calls it a spear point... I'm still calling it a drop point. That's not a spear point. Not the proper geometry.
On a spear point the spine forms a curve that meets the edge at or slightly below the centerline. The drop point is a modified spear point where the spine meets the edge somewhere above the centerline.(adapted from "The Working Folding Knife",by Steven Dick.)The spear point has been widely used on pocket knives for centuries. The drop point is apparently a fairly modern design first used on fixed blade hunting knives.
I just liked the catalog pages of the various blades...
