What Is The Point Of A Head/round Knife?

[TinkerTailor]

Sometimes we do things a certain way, even though it is wrong and inefficient just because its fun. Sometimes i look at things cause its fun. Fun stuff to look at is good for inspiration. Round knives are more fun to look at than a clicky yellow olfa

Conclusion? Round knives are funner.

This is true....I failed to point out the funner factor.

Thanks all for the great replys the main point of my question at the time was simply what is the reasoning behind it, I do not think I will own a head knife any time soon damn thing scares me to be perfectly honest as my hand has this nasty habit of simply letting go of what ever I am holding with no warning, with the excto knife that I use it has WAY smaller blade so that way I do not end up cutting myself as much as I think I would with a head knife!!

By the way, the Round Knife that I posted above from Terry Knipschleid is his French blade. If you notice, one side of the blade is longer then the other. It is like having two knifes in one. The longer side is great for stright cuts, the shorter side for cutting out patterns. If anyone is interested contact Terry, he is very informative, great guy, will tell you everything you need to know. He has a large selection of knives, all kinds.
