It is my experience and my opinion, many will not agree with me, but I was a bit disappointed with 1111.
I used 911 & 1311 before I got 1111, and must say I'd prefer 9 or 13.
There was quite a lot of sock transferring into the hand when chopping and batonning 1111. It might be the thickness of the blade, as it was not a problem with 13 for me. Don't get me wrong, it chops and splits very well, but the shock makes it uncomfortable, especially when longer use is required. I have gotten used to the low shock transfer on Res-C knives and just based on that I'd give 1111 a pass if I'd known before getting one.
