I was Christmas shopping last night, looking at the emergency stuff that is good to have around. I was in the Swiss Army knife section, thinking about my 20ish niece, and some of the Recruit series (think that is what they were) had serrated main blades.
What's the advantage of those?
In cooking, I love them for slicing potatoes, other veggies. It's a feature on my dive knives.
But for the basic person, out in the "wild", how might they use that?
As it was, I bought the option without the serrated main blade, mostly because in some regions, the laws say that "out in the wild", a serrated blade is a no-no.
But knives are always useful to give as presents so just as she might get the plain blade, so she might get the serrated......if I knew the practical land, out of the kitchen use.
