It's kind of hit and miss. The curve of the serrations isn't my favorite but the blade is ground thinner than most so it still slices great. I screwed this one up with a diamond rod years ago and have been working on reprofiling it on a Sharpmaker, they're getting better. This knife was really the big eye opener for me regarding SE/FFG.
Yes, the blade of the Stretch 1 (and I assume Stretch 2 too? Can´t recall, though I owned two "regular" and one straight spine Stretch 2) feels noticeable thinner and slicier than on many other otherwise similarly looking Spydies - especially in the front part (of the blade).
/ I felt that on your pics the "spikes" between the serrations look rather (too) pointy, but could be wrong of course.
I actually sold my combo edge Stretch 1 - partly because I felt that the serrations were really "snaggy" and not like rounding them of myself (I certainly would have done so with a FULLY SE Stretch 1 though!. Never found one so far though for an at least remotely reasonable price, and the Stretch 1 generally works great in a coarse plain edge too anyway. Though I´d still prefer it in a good SE).
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

It's no Caribbean that's for sure
Part of what you might be seeing is the top shoulder of the serrations look even more spikey than usual because I really screwed them up with a diamond file. This was one of the knives I learned to sharpen SE on.
All SE all the time since 2017
