I prefer a fixed or folder to have serrations on the area near the hilt called half serrated.
This gives me the ability to cut rope, or what ever even when the edge has somehow worn dull and there is not way to sharpen it.
The serrated edge is best when having to cut something such as a horses lead or anything in an emergency.
Most cities have a ban on fixed blade knives.
Yet an A. G. Russel woods walker is perfect for those areas.

In reply to Ozzie. Although, I do care a couple miniature knives, one is a multi- tool, the other serrated.

State laws matter: fixed in the outback, folder daily. The ones I choose have serrated and straight blade .

It all depends on the use, right? I’d rather not try to carry around a 7″ fixed blade throughout a regular day but if I’m going camping or hiking, that’s going to be my first choice

Both. Why choose just one when they’re all good?

fixed blade. i used to carry a 8-inch survival knife everywhere and it never slowed me down.
but a folding knife has it’s moments. after all, discretion is the better part of valor.
