Thanx Jeff I am totally addicted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Skunk all my info is based on knives that I actually own with exception of the scrap muk, which I take on good faith based on info I've received from actual owners in this forum that it is an excellent knife for food prep and processing game. Mike was asking for a comparison of the 711 and R6 and I was tryin to stick to what he asked for. I just posted up the pic of my collection to show Mike what he's in for. I started with the 511 and it escalated rather quickly from there. I joined the forum on 7/29 and these knives I've acquired since then. So barely over a month and I've purchased 9 more knives and have 2 more on order. I think it's time to admit defeat and join Rehab <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
