Good question.

The trajectory would be all screwed up, what you really want is a tanto knife with a black tip for extra armor pen.

Americanized tantos aren't actually that good at piercing, they're just really sturdy.

NO shut up good question tho.

Because a spike is better a piercing.

Like >>30659930 said, Americanized (also called geometric) tantos aren't particularly good at piercing, they just have good tip strength, which you don't really need in bullets since they're pretty much guaranteed to deform.
