I'm ready to purchase a SARK. Plain edge or serrated?

jsp · Feb 2, 2015

I have all the means for sharpening and I can get my knives hair popping sharp. Should I get a the plain edge or half serrated version? I really like the rounded/blunt tip on the SARK because it allows one to get up close and personal under the skin . I've had several occasions where I had to cut things off people.

I have a NSAR which is the Navy Search and Rescue knife and it is serrated. I'd recommend serrations also.

If you need to, one good pull and a seatbelt is history. When seconds count, that could be very important.

I carry mine in my day pack in the front car seat daily in case I ever need it. You never know when you will come across an accident that just happened.

Serrations are great, they rarely get in the way.

If I bought one, it'd have serrations.

That particular knife seems made for serrations. Especially with its intended purpose.
