I"ve recieved a number of private messages on this forum before- hmm.... maybe I know what the problem is... I'll see what I can do.<br><br>Anyway, I see that you've gotten some advice from others, and it's probably better than mine. As I've said elsewhere, I have some serrated knives for specialized work, because they are generally faster on rope in particular- hence usually better for climbing, sailing and diving... but for all of that I don't much like them, and sharpening is the main reason. It seems to me that being able to sharpen a knife with the most commonly available tools for the purpose (flat stones) is a virtue, and having to have very specialized tools to maintain something as basic and simple as a knife is not. But that's just me- others swear by them.<br><br>Neither my Sampson's KISS nor my Stiff KISS have serrations. You don't want to be using any of the V-sharpeners for these chisel-ground knives- they're meant to be sharpened on one side only, with at most a very light honing on the "flat" side. Putting a bevel on the "flat" side of a KISS would be a bad thing, since the blade rests flat against the handle when folded.<br><br>That having been said, the best tool I have for the purpose is a thin triangular diamond "stone". It does OK, but I'm not thrilled with it- every knife maker does serrations differently, and each seems to require a slightly different technique. I find sharpening serrations tedious and time consuming, and I avoid it as much as possible- which makes me somewhat reluctant to use those knives, or those parts of the edges of partially-serrated knives.<br><br>Besides, they make the peanut butter look funny. ;-)<br>
