TIP POINTED

A tip pointed knife is a basic knife design in which both the cutting edge and back of the blade are slightly curved, tapering to a point. This type of knife is capable of rolling off the item being cut, and is suited for swaying cutting movements, such as carving a joint of meat, and the tip is suitable for larding, separating tendons and similar fine details.
