The 11-11 is a brute. I couldn't believe it when I first picked it up. The balance of it is several inches beyond the Ricasso. I CAN'T WAIT to go chop with this one. Honestly, I like it more than the NMFBM and It's seriously making me consider selling my Basic 11, my favorite Busse ever. They are very different blades, however, so I have reason to keep the B-11. The 11-11 is a chopper, whereas the B-11 is a machete/chopper.

I love this blade!! Way to go Dan and thanks David for snagging me one at Blade. I'll do a comparison of all my Res-C choppers one of these days.
