As far as serrated blades are concerned, my recommendation is to take a plain blade, sharpen it, then create micro-serrations with a coarse sharpener, leaving the tip area finely sharpened. This will make your knife do the same job as a serrated blade without the sharpening hassles.<br><br>I should also mention that removing the clip from the SOG Access Card exposes the lock mechanism and (I believe) releases the spring that holds the lock, rendering the lock effectively useless. This may or may not be a problem for you, depending on your intended application.<br><br>BTW, I apologize for my atrocious typing in my earlier post. I didn't preview because I was in a rush.
