The postman just dropped my new 511 off and it is sweet, I use that word alot when discribing most if not all of my busskin knives. I really like this smaller almost no choil blade and the coating is definitely smoother than the regular crinkle coating, must be the duracoat for the camo and I can say I am really happy with this wonderful blade. Thanks you Dan and your all-star team. The comparison of the two 511 ![[Linked Image from img853.imageshack.us]](http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/8448/2011092809370999.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img6.imageshack.us]](http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/5027/20110928093745213.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img600.imageshack.us]](http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/8316/20110928093733224.jpg)

Looks sweet! I cannot see the "lines" in those pics. Does it look like they smoothed those out on the camo 511s?

My mother told me if didn't have anything nice to say then don't say anything but that never stopped me before.

Hope I get mine today too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Any chance of an "in-hand" shot, with index finger at the choil (choked up)...for comparison sake? The choil looks much more favorable over the standard model. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

So is the grind profile the same as the standard 511?

Congrats Caz! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I'm hoping that mine will arrive today or tomorrow, and I received an email from Amy that my Rodent 9 is shipping later this week! Woo-Hoo! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

The grind profile is the same and I have to say I really like them both, not sure if I will like one over the other or not as they are identical except for the choil
