If you prefer a tanto point, Cold Steel have the Recon Tanto which is very similar to the SRK. Same 3/16" thick AUS 8A blade with a Kraton handle. Just slightly larger, and a black epoxy powder coat finish instead of the black Telfon on the SRK. http://www.coldsteel.com/recontanto.html

A recommendation from Gear Patrol and acclaim from Lee Child were sufficient to bubble this to the top of my reading list.

Great article on a very overlook aspect of a gentleman's wardrobe. Any particular reason you didn't mention their line of trouser clamps?
I have been meaning to pick up a set (they were out of stock last time I checked, but I see they are now back), and was wondering if you or anyone else at GearPatrol has any experience with them?
Roan.

It does not say to form militias.
The phrase "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State" is a prefatory clause, and not a precondition.
The right to be protected is "the right to keep and bear arms."
It does not say, "the right of the people to form select militias shall not be infringed." It protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
The clear meaning of the 2nd Amendment has always been that the right of individual citizens to keep and bear firearms is not to be infringed by the government, and the clear reason they put into the Amendment for protecting this individual right is the hope to retain a body of the population possessing and well-trained in the use of firearms. Not a standing army (which is prohibited by the Constitution) and not a select-militia (basically an army fielded by a state), but individual citizens in the populace, who would be capable of resisting tyranny imposed from without or from within the borders of the country.
To interpret the Amendment otherwise, you're going to have to present compelling arguments which overcome the numerous examples and the clear reasoning used by the majority in Heller.
