I dont know what kind of knife that is, but fancy doesn't by any means good. So long as your knifes locking mechanism is extremely safe with NO play then it can be an effective defense knife.

Alot of people carry folder that have the little thumb locking mechanism and they just are not strong enough. Take the knife and try to flex it, kind of like breaking a stick, there should be no flex in any direction.

Serrations on a knife are not as effective on people, but are very useful for other situations: cutting seat belts, rope, etc. A non-serrated blade is not as effective in this situation.
