Preference

Serrated edges aren't too terrible to sharpen. If you are having trouble, use this little tip: lots of cussing and yelling.
 
I generally prefer plain edge. Half serrated is fine too, if you cut tough stuff a lot. I generally dislike fully serrated knives except when they are for some very specific tasks where serrations are desirable.

It is worth noting that my favorite folder is half serrated.

Well it looks like plain edge wins...

Jivers, you need to figure out what your knife will be used for before you declare a "winner". If you will be cutting a lot of things like hose, cable, rope, or fibrous materials on a regular basis, then a serrated or combo edge is the better choice. If you only use your knife mainly to open envelopes or boxes like most people here, then a plain edge is plenty sufficient.
 
Knowing its a personal preference; I choose PE knives exclusively, unless something comes along like my Benchmade 910SCG; only made as CE. In my collection that's the only outstanding example. (And it Is.) :cool:
