bow tie with points or no points

[stanwelks]

1. Is one more appropriate then the other?

2. Is one style more formal than the other?

3. Which is more classic?

I've wondered this as well. Generally what I've found is that diamond point bow ties are worn in a more formal setting. I don't know if this is a hard and fast rule but I've seen them mostly when people wear tails or at very formal events.
