Serrations Are for Sissies?!

from "Make It Out Alive" (M.O.A.)

Serrations get a bad rap — usually from people who don’t actually use their knives hard. In this episode, we break down why serrated edges often outperform plain edges in the real world, especially when cutting rope, webbing, fibrous material, and other tough, dirty cutting tasks where plain edges start to struggle.We also tackle the biggest myth of all — that serrations are hard to sharpen. The truth is, they’re often easy to maintain and stay functional far longer than plain edges. If you think serrations are pointless, this episode might change your mind… or at least bruise your ego a little.Patreon Link: patreon.com/GearConvoyWant to be ready for anything?
