Interesting, never heard of that before.

Good one. :tu

Sorry was not very clear on what I meant. Both the corners where the bevel and the spine meet the end of the blade are beveled/chamfered, not just the bevel muted.

Does the slight difference...

Note that it does not look rounded but beveled/chamfered in the Aust photo and that the same treatment is given to the spine also. So no, not like blunting a square point in the tradition sense.

Googled "Amerikanischer Kopf" and found this 6/8" Rasiermesser mit amerikanischem Kopf . Like I said a very minute difference to the definition of square point found here Straight razor - Wikipedia,...

Look closely gentlemen and see that the corners are beveled/chamfered a bit as opposed to being right angles as one a square point. It is such a minute difference but it is there. At least that is...

Never heard of an American Point before either but I can say my vintage Herder Constant stainless has such a point. They have been around awhile.
