Enduras Different?

Got two Enduras, one FRN in vg-10, one aus6 SS. Why does the vg-10 blade have a wedge shape grind and the SS has a hollow grind? Oh yeah why is the vg-10 blade almost 1/4 inch longer than the aus6? Don't get me wrong I love 'em both but they could almost be considered different models.:confused:
 
Hi Yobbos1. We changed the grind of the FRN model from hollow to flat to provide more tip strength when we were using ATS-55. When we switched to VG-10, we just kept the flat grind on the model. The AUS-6 version has not had a tip strength problem. Also, I think ELUs beat up the FRN version harder in everyday use.
