would you think a serrated blade would look LESS threatening or MORE threatening in the eyes of the law?
on one hand, a serrated folder like the spyderco rescue, or delica should look pretty tame compared to many other folders like a emerson commander or whatever.
on the other hand, a lot of people find serrated blades to look intimidating because of the 'teeth'
which would you rather be caught with in a sd-situation by the police, a fully serrated blade or a plain edge?
some examples:

rescue
http://store5.yimg.com/I/bestknives_1721_17416671
rescue all serrated, also available with yellow handle
when carrying a folder for sd it might be a good idea not to carry the most intimidating folder around in the eyes of the law... but thats not so easy
then there's difference between serrated blades, a rescue, especially with yellow handle doesn't look very intimidating compared to a civilian for example...
