My Basic 11 was looking kind of beat.

Stripped, satin finished, dimples removed from ricasso, convexed, edge blended to primary grind as close to 0 as I can manage. Taken down all the way to .5 micron diamonds by hand after 1 micron diamond on leather on the grinder.

Beautiful! Why worry about another DF? Those Basic 11s are not unreasonably priced.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Nope. They're just unreasonably unavailable! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
No doubt. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
Maybe they'll show up at the BCS soon. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

230, that blade looks awesome. I am not sure but I would probably go for a 13" DF since it would be a serious chunk of steel. Then again. my B11 is great feeling too. To many great blades, and not enough money!
