    Just for the record, an Oblique Point is also referred to as a French Point - the Spanish Point is evidently as Xman shows above.

    Yes that tip has a name, it's called a modified spike or a modified oblique depending on who you talk to. I've got a Puma Inox and a Robert Williams with that tip.

    Pumas (top two have this tip)

    Robert Williams custom

    Forgive me, I'm still lost (an new). Is it the oblique that is a Spanish point?

    Spanish is oblique at the edge side of the tip as well as the spine side. See my previous post attachment.
