It's one of those imported trees, Australia I believe. They brought them in to dry up the land down here.

As of right now, I'm just comparing on straight chopping ability, nothing else. I'll have more to say about the general all around awesomeness of the 1311 after I use it more for a range of different things.

I'll say this, I used it to clear my neighbors holly tree from my property line, it was outstanding.
