Which is better, a clip point knife or a drop point knife?
My daily carry is a Puma 270 General.
It is carried for utility purposes but also in case of any physical threat. With that latter function in mind, it’s difficult to think of anything more menacing than a clip point. Plus, I will freely confess that the fine control I get from this blade is simply outstanding.
If you want the best of both worlds, just get yourself the 972 Game Warden.

For what purpose? A clip point blade can have a thinner and pointier shape for better control in small cutting tasks. A drop point blade can have a stronger point for tasks such as use in hiking and camping. These two examples are generic examples, and there are examples of knives which prove the examples wrong. Your question is too broad to be able to receive a definitive answer. There are hundreds of great knifemakers, whether mass made or small shop made, and some enjoyable testing within your time and budget limits can help you to decide which type is best for your needs.
Because I use mine for opening boxes more than any other task, a small folder with a clip point or a Wharnecliffe blade works best for my everyday carry. When outdoors, my needs change and so does the knife I carry.
