Well if you go all the way back to the colonies forward to today....8" (full tang) butcher knife family with a carbon steel blade is probably the most utilitarian including being used for utility and combat. Highly traded/sold, especially in the 1800's forward. Joint up large game, Butcher steaks, carve your meat, carve your enemy, makes no difference.
See, it's not only is the knife sharp, but also..., can you get one? Great so you can special order a "Bowie" from Sears and Roebuck...., and it will get there by train in a month or two, OR you can find a Wilson (or some other brand) 8" butcher knife right now....
