I am not correcting anyone, just speaking from experience. I own a m16-14sfg which obviously has veff serrations. At first i was in such awe of my knife i was actually uncomfortable using it, but after seeing video of someone else doing so, i easily sliced through two plastic bottles. After that i just carried it around with me as a personal defense knife, and even though it is heavy the "handguard" and it's ability to quickly draw it by snagging the guard make it invaluable. Once i finally came back to my area where there are actual woods, i was prepared to test it out. I started out on the softest wood i could find, and on the smallest branch on a small sapling too. And immediately, the serrations bent. I thought it was impossible, and that i must have dropped it at some point without realizing it. But no, i cut into the tiny branch again, and then a serration chipped. Never had i had a knife both chip AND bend, and from such a gentle task. I have no idea if it's just the 8Cr14 steel, or the fact that the serrations themselves are a bad design. If you look on google you will see that on the g10 m16 or m21, the serrations look more fragile than say, the triumph or ultima. No idea what to do or if i should return it, seeing as how i didn't buy directly form them. And no, it's not a counterfeit.
