I thought I might try a serrated edge on these fireman's breaching tools (sharpened pry bars) but I'm not liking it.

I don't like a serrated edge in general but I thought this might be a good application for one. But now that I have it in hand, I don't think so.

First, serrated edge? Yuck.

Second, that looks like something I could hurt myself with, how many can I get?

It's not really even a knife, more just a sharpen pry tool cold chisel thing. I really don't expect it's going to be very popular, it's far outside of our normal wares. We made about 200 of them, I don't even know how many the fella at the fire department who wanted them is going to take, I expect will probably have at least 150 available and it is not going to be a big seller. $500 is a lot of money for a specialty tool that most folks here aren't going to have much use for. So, probably as many as you want.

I don’t mind the serrations.
I could go $425 on that. Grey terotuff. Blue Ti.
Just have Jo invoice me.

ETA: just checked. I can only do $272.61 tonight but I’m going to the bank tomorrow. I’m good for the rest.
