What is the Yard's thoughts on B-11 + / - vs the BWM.

I love my BWM...but I think it's because of how thin it is. Some may not agree, because that does take some of the "chopping" ability away from it....however, for my uses (camping / hiking) I don't know if I care for an NMFBM type knife by any means, and to me the BWM is a great middle ground for multiple tasks. Now, if it had Res-C, I think it may be my grail...hard to say.

Does the B-11's thickness place it in a "chopper only" role...or will it fly like the BWM? The BWM balances at the choil...which makes it handy (for me).

I reckon the debate for me is...would a B-11 replace the BWM? Most family / friends that see my BWM say "nice Machete"....they're clueless; however, the thin profile of the knife does attract me from that perspective....makes super short work of cellulose & I never get fatigued with it (sans chopping through an 8" limb on my dead tree!).
