Sharpening a Serrated Knife

Is sharpening a serrated knife worthwhile?

People may tell you that sharpening your serrated knives isn't necessary. To some, sharp kitchen utensils may not be a priority (I assume you, a sharpening site visitor, are different), but it does make a difference. Most people who avoid sharpening their serrated knives simply abstain because they don't know how to do it. It's perfectly rational for someone to keep cutting with a dull bread knife when sharpening it seems like an impossibility. Rest assured, though. Sharpening your serrated knives can be very quick and easy if you have the right tool.
