Why no full serrated Emersons?

They had only one that I know of and that was the M Wave

 

Last time I asked I was told to have a knifemaker do it.

 

Good question.

 

A fully serrated A-100 would be the perfect tactical steak knife.

 

I do believe the best way to get your question answered is to talk with CUSTOMER SERVICE at EKI. Can they do what you want?

 

Personally, I don't think a fully dragon's teeth serrated blade would be ideal for many models. The SSRT, Commander, and maybe the CQC-9, but those are the only ones I think that would benefit.

 

Here's a fully serrated Roadhouse.

Yeah a full serrated commander would be sick, I can dig that.

 

I don't think most people would find that useful.

 

i prefer plain edges myself. have no use for partial serrated. full serrated, might be interesting depending on which model, but only if they would be easy to sharpen. so depends on the serration pattern, for me anyways.

 

They did full serrated La Griffe also.

I've asked about a fully serrated Commander before and they said no.

 

I don't understand why some do not embrace the partially-serrated models.

Best of both worlds in my book, sometimes a quick pull with the serrated portion does things the PE section takes forever to do., like trimming a branch or cutting baling twine, rope or cord. Instead of sawing away, one tug and presto.

I cut a fellow out of a car once with my CQC8 hanging upside down by his seatbelt. I carefully inserted the knife, one quick pull far enough so it cleared his body so it would not cut him and in one second the situation was over.

All mine are serrated for that reason. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

 

the way i use knives.....it's backwards on most american market knives, for my use. i need the serrations at the end of the blade, i need to plain edge closer to the handle for tasks i use it for. that said a good serrated edge can do a lot, so if i have serrations, i'd rather have the whole blade serrated. visually i don't like the way half and half look. sharpening i find a half and half a hindrance. i have more than a few but i prefer one or the other, not both. too each their own though.

 

Agreed. But I think you nailed it when you mentioned "sawing away". People see serrations and think of saw teeth and never get past that error in thinking.
