I carry a Kershaw Blur in the tanto blade everyday and its a wonderful knife.

I love the feel of the handle, its a great size for my hand and teh assisted opening is smooth and controlled, doesnt feel like its gonna flip out of your hand if you dont have a good grip on it.

Im my fire department turn out gear, I carry the same knife, but in the rescue model, which has a blunt tip and a window punch on the end (never used it). Its got a different type of sereted edge, whihc both are equally good. I think the rescue model works better on things like cord and other smaller diameter objects, as where my tanto one works better on larger objects due to the "deeper" serated parts.
