Serrations a shit.

Don't buy shit knives with shit serrations.

I use my Spyderco Salt to cut rope constantly, and I've had the thing for 5+ years of daily USCG use and it's never failed me.

They let you use knives in the Coast Guard?

I think a non serrated blade is better because you can always sharpen it.
>>
>>29324238
Yes? Why wouldn't they?

Doesn't the CG require the highest AFQT score for enlistment?

>>29324394
How so?

I've learned through the years of knife use and going through many knives that I will always prefer a small/medium fixed blade, plain edge, and made of carbon steel.
It's just far more sturdy for any task than a folder ever will be, and a plain edge carbon blade is very easy and quick to sharpen over stainless, and correct the bevel and stuff like that.

Only time I might ever consider a stainless knife again is if it were a dive knife, which I don't dive anyways, or if I worked at a marina or something, which I don't. Not sure if I'd bother with serrations.

Don't think I'd waste money paying for another folder with how many I've broken or worn out when you have to do anything more than opening packages. Doesn't matter what company they come from, the mechanism is inherently weak no matter what and a fixed blade for me is only moderately more inconvenient in size to carry.

Still not saying much.

Serrations are shit. Get a nice, sharp, fixed-blade knife without serrations. Need to cut rope? Rest blade against rope, hit back of blade with knife.

You can do that kind of stuff when you have a sturdy knife. Like a buck 119.

practical serrations aren't flashy. try cutting a crusty bread with a straight blade.
>>
>>29323460
cold shit's serrations are the worst i've experienced in my whole life
>>
>>29324873
I've fucked up a lot of loaves with a serrated knife

>try cutting a crusty bread with a straight blade.
with a sharp enough knife you can cut crusty bread without a problem.
>>
>>29326748
Yep. Any real chef will just use their razor sharp chef's knife. No fancy serrated nonsense needed. The trick is that it has to be sharp enough to cut, usually with a coarse edge, not saw.
>>
>>29326731
Just cause you're a heavy handed mongo doesn't mean it doesn't work.
>>
>>29326800
not really. most chefs just use a bread knife to cut bread because it's easier. I was just saying you can cut bread with a straight blade if you wanted to, not that you should.
