Again guys thanks for the warm welcome. DT don't worry we are all at least a little bit bat S!@t crazy. It's what allow us to survive and thrive in our insane world. LOL Two weeks huh. That I can do without getting too antsy. LOL Horn Dog It was seeing a you tube video in which the 911 was keeping up with a larger blade in chopping that finally convinced me. Well that and reading the comparisons between SR-101 and a few other steels and of course the price. I have to agree that these knives are awesome tools at a ridiculously great price. My thanks go out to Mr. Bussey for making great tools affordable.

regards,
Joe
