Even if someone was so hell-bent on attacking someone, he could just sharpen down the rounded knives to a point anyway.
Hence this entire argument is void, if someone wants a point, they'll get it.

This, and I use the point for opening cans, bottles, cereal boxes, and packages of yogurt. Why would a knife company make a specific pointed knife when any knife can have all these uses? It's simply more useful to the customer.
This is like asking why nails aren't flat, and they aren't because it would destroy what makes them useful.
