Rohann,
the hollow grind will stay sharper longer, but it is harder to sharpen. You need a sharpening wheel to put a hollow grind on. If you use a stone to sharpen it, you'll have to put a new edge on it. I put a flat edge on a knfe of mine that came hollow ground a few years ago and it was quite a bit of work with just stones. My dad has a wheel and keeps his knives sharp enough to shave with.

Thanks. Can a hollow grind be potentially sharper than a flat grind, or will it just stay sharp longer?

Okay, well after some very thought-provoking coin flipping, I've decided on the D2 Extreme Fighting/Utility knife. What do you guys think?
