I figured I’d give this chisel knife a try, since it’s not like I use this particular knife for its intended purpose anyway but rather as a general purpose sharpish piece of steel. I’m already carrying a folding knife and a Leatherman, so I don’t need a third knife with a pointy tip.

Edit: 6 months later - I've used the chisel end a ton. Far more useful in my work compared to a regular carpenter's knife.

I wouldn't worry too much about the actual durability, when I mentioned fragile it was more about keeping a good edge on it. My experience with single bevel edges is mostly with wood chisel and some kitchen knives, and both seem to require a lot more maintenance to keep them sharp.
