Veritas makes this one in the ideal format: the flat back helps the knife run true along a straightedge, and the 55° spear point means you can knife along either the right or left side of a square, and reach into tight corners. The nylon-reinforced ABS handle is rounded for comfort, with flats to keep it from rolling away.
