The B11 is flat ground if i'm not mistaken, that lightens it up a lot even with the extra length.

Can someone post a picture of the B-11. I don't pop in often but sounds like a new knife if this is true, I sure would like to see a photo.

It looks to be a classic in the making .... at only 16 oz's it will be an easy knife for belt carry. It all sounds great ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

SF, remember that if something sounds to good to be true it probably isn't!

Hehe, just messing with you. Not much action here today at a few minutes after 6am. E911 got a call about an accident and a man laying unresponsive in the road. Come to find out, drunk got out of his vehicle and passed out in the road. He's gonna get a free ride out of this.

There were some great points noted over on BF yesterday as well.
Second hand info: The B-11 will carry more momentum in a swing than the BWM, considering it's additional length and weight forward design. It is also not as "Tall" of a blade as the BWM (I personally cannot wait to get pics side/side of the two), and with it's thicker top end and flat grind it could dominate in several facets (batoning, for instance).
I continue to mull this over...but getting one is inevitable <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
