- TL;DR Summary
- Why are serrated knives more effective than normal knives?
What physical processes does serration take advantage of that make cutting something with a serrated knife more effective than cutting something with an ordinary knife? What is the optimal shape of each tiny segment of a serrated knife? Would cutting effectiveness increase as you add more serrations (and if so, at what rate? Does it increase indefinitely?)
