The serrated part of the blade is sharpened on only one side on my knife. Normal?

Yes. I own several different brand knives that have serrations and they are only sharpened on one side.

Yes, mine is like that as well. I doubt it will effect the utility of it much

When I used my Lansky sharpening system on this knife I found the edge to be unevenly ground. One side of the blade was roughly 30 degrees and the other 25 degrees.I chose not to re-cut the edges and sharpened it at those angles. The blade took a very nice edge and has held its sharpness with moderate use.

The serrations aren't sharp but are tapered on both sides. This knife is made very well. I'm extremely happy with it and would buy it again.

Hi-Would you please clarify your comment? Are you saying you can use the ceramic side on a serrated knife, but not the steel, coarse side? Do you happen to know what you need to sharpen a serrated knife?Thanks,

I don't have a bread knife, which is probably serrated, but the rest is not. Santoku knife is kind of sculptured, but the cutting edge is straight on all of them.

Mine is a half serrated and half plain edge blade, as shown in picture. I love this knife.

Sorry, I have the same problem. My friend says the only fix is to get a slicer that is serrated.

The top half of the blade is serrated, the bottom half is sharp like a normal knife. The weight balance is great :)

Hi, it is sharp on one edge. I use it no so often but works very good any time I use it.

There is piece of metal that snaps into place when the knife is opened. It is serrated near the end where it holds the blade. Depress this and the blade will close after pressing it towards the handle. Be careful!

Have you adjusted the depth of the blade? It may be that the piece you are cutting is missing the guard entirely.

I believe further back the blade is serrated. Unfortunately I can't double-check since I mislaid it and haven't been able to find it. Sorry.

The tip of the blade is sharp, and is a danger if you are not careful. Although I haven't quite experimented with it, the sides are dull and shouldn't pose harm if you're just carrying it around or storing it.

The main blade is not serrated. It is a straight blade. You will love this knife.

Yes. It's very finely serrated, and shows more when the knife lies with the blade to the left instead of the right.

Lansky sharpener will do the job on the non serrated part, I have never had to sharpen the serrated edge on mine. If you mail the knife back to benchmade with 5 dollars for return postage they have a lifetime sharpening service and will put a factory edge on it for you.

Move it back over to the left while closing the blade. Pretty standard on many knives.
