Finally some proper use for the Bodacious. Cutting down a trampoline net and some plastic jugs.

I used a dremel with barrel sander to grind the serrations, dremel with cutting disk to cut the "wave", and a bench grinder to shape the blade.

Nice! Spyderco does great serrations but I would prefer the large scallops only like you did here. no baby scallops. Awesome!

I think I agree. Having used a few of my self- applied-serrated knives for a while now, I can say these larger scallops are easier to use and maintain, IME.

I'm sure the smaller scallops are preferable in some cases, but I can't think of a time when I've noticed them being better, or missed them on my modded knives.

those look like larger versions of the Victorinox serrations. While I'm not huge on SE these days I have to admit the Victorinox style SE blades I own barely snag at all.
