I hope its just a fad... I have yet to find anything except maybe bread, that cuts better with a serrated edge. I think maybe its got to do with the serrations looking "tough", but experience shows me its useless. And before somebody brings up cutting your way out of a downed chopper, that's what the double-saw-tooth on the BACK of the nine inch blade is for, in case you hadn't noticed, unless you're a SEAL or some other branch of the military, you're not gonna have ANY blade on you that will cut through the fuselage, and if you are carrying, you can do a LOT better then a serrated edge on a 2.something inch blade. I guess I should get off my soap-box now, but in my experience, serrated edges are unwanted window-dressing that suck, and while I'm all for choice, it's getting hard to find a good old high carbon, hollow ground, clip point, heavy blade, folder!!!
Whoa, excuse me... got carried away there for a minute... anybody else feel the same way???
