Is there a relationship between people who hate serrations and those who hate chisel grind also?
Is there a relationship between people who hate serrations and those who hate chisel grind also?
I don't understand it either. I really wasn't kidding when I asked if I'm the only guy on the forums that doesn't wear a suit and tie to work. From reading the vast majority of the posts in this thread it seems like only professional envelope openers are here, lol. Either that or everyone is deathly afraid of having to sharpen serrations for some reason. As stated in my previous post, If you're in the line of work where you actually get your hands dirty, I cannot see how a plain-edge is an advantage over a combo-edge. All my coworkers, as well as a few friends in law enforcement/security, and some in search&rescue, all prefer combo edge....For some reason, some people just don't get that in addition to cutting fibrous materials, and as was mentioned earlier, some hard plastics or other materials that plain edges don't cut nearly as well, serrations will continue to tear and cut even when extremely dull...
