I couldn't agree more. Thanks for the pics!
I'm loving the 5-11. I am awaiting Rainwalker pants for both my 5-11 and Busse Hack Bear Cub. Once I get the 5-11 clothed, it'll come with me into the woods on many occasion, giving my BJ and .22 ASH a rest.
In the mean time, I have been playing with it around the house and on my back porch. It's one blade that I can't seem to put down.
I've also found it to be a fantastic thrower! The tip is sharp as a needle and the blade forward balance helps to hit my mark.
As far as edge retention, SR-101 is top notch. As long as you touch it up after use, the 5-11 will likely stay razor sharp forever. I'm very happy with the choice of steel on this blade.
