I voted for the MOD; I've carried a partially serrated/combo edged blade as my primary pocket knife for more than a decade, first a zytel handled Puma ProTec, then a G10/S30V Kershaw Leek. For most cutting tasks, I use the front half of the blade, but when I need to cut something tough or fibrous material, I like having serrations for aggressive cutting. To each their own, but I think the serrations are a feature that enhance my options rather than a limiting them. Additionally, it's rare, which enhances its value to me. I wasn't sure I'd like it when I ordered mine from the Razorganzaaaaa, but I did -- I liked it enough that I bought three more on the secondary market.
