Haha, I believe it, but I would still say no, I would say intended purpose. Maybe your neighbor refers to it as a trimmer.

I would say it's more around purpose, like taking down a tree, a branch or rope would be the purpose of a saw. They have saw blade knives for smaller beaches or other purposes. Kinda if hard to explain but I think usually you can tell the difference.

You can have serrated saws or knives, or even serrated scissors. Serration does not make it a saw.

It may be serrated, but it's different than any other serrated knife I have used, it cuts well after 25 years and I use it almost daily.

I still have and use my miracle blade set that's like 25 years old. I use that carving knife and the steak knives all the time. It came in a set of like 14 knives for $40 or something like that. Not the greatest knives but they have a unique edge so you never have to sharpen.
