drop point

Convex spine curve

A drop point is a blade shape where the spine curves downward to meet the edge, creating a lowered and controllable tip.

Common on hunting and utility knives, the design offers strength and precision for tasks like skinning game: a drop point blade with a four-inch edge.

In logistics, a drop point is a designated location for deliveries or pickups.
