Q: What is Utility grind?
A: Mikov knives with Utility grind actually have clip point blades. The blades were manufactured outside Mikov based on my own design. I thought they would be more useful than the regular dagger blades. They are not available from any other dealers. Only 1000 blades with utility grind was made.

A: Dagger blades are illegal there and even though the false edge is not sharpened, customs may seize the knives because of the "dagger" grind. Knives with utility grind are OK.
