Sorry, couldn't resist that.
Spyderco Military, I own a plainedge one,but if you were to go serrated, go with Spyderco.
The worker is also a nice Spyderco knife, very sharp and not to big,

The fully serrated Military gets my vote for the best fully serrated folder. Honorable mentions go to the Calypso C54BMS and the Endura.

Without a doubt Spyderco Military - reason: unique blade steel

They are a pain in the butt to sharpen, but I think you have to at least look at the Cold Steel knives. Very nice for the $

While not a big fan of serrated patterns, my experience with them includes the CS sheepsfoot bladed Emergency Rescue. I am hesitant to admit it but this is a very useful and convenient "slide opening" knife and can cut fibrous material very well. Its serrations can be easily touched up with the Spyderco Sharpmaker or better yet the DMT Diafold series tapered diamond rod.

Another vote for the Spyderco Military.
Can't wait to see if they produce one with the rolling lock.

I bought a Cold Steel El Hombre a few months ago, and the thing cuts like a bastard. This is partially due to the curveture of the blade, and patially because those serrations are NASTY! They grab and shred things like you read about...

My Spyderco Civilian tops my list - by a wide margin over anything else. It has a special place in my heart and pocket.

You didn't mention size. So the answer is Spyderco. Among their many other firsts and accomplishments is the fact that are responsible for the popularization of serrations on folding knives. There may have been serrated folders before Spyderco but they were few and far between and they were the first ones to get it right. Their 2 stage pattern is excellent and it works! What's more they come in all sizes from co-pilot and dragonfly to Endura, Police and Military. I don't yet own a Military but among my favorite large folders are the Endura and Aluminum handled Police model. I've also taken a real shine to the Rescue II lately.
