Favorite Scrapyard....
Large blade right now is my Regulator Bulldog. It the longest scrapyard I have. I gave my DF to a crazy Jarhead in trade for the upcoming 911 (which he has already ordered AND is making a cordura oversheath for the kydex insert he is going to make.
I really like my 311, light, handy and Sheeple friendly. But I think I would have to go with my Muppy. There's just something about it that keeps drawing me back to it no matter what knife I get.
Course the BWM is a really nice blade to, but you said Scrapyard.
As far as "I'll use it for ANYTHING blade", I would have to go with my Regulator.
SO I don't actually have A favorite, but a couple three depending on the use. The 911 should be an awesome knife, I'm tempted to get one. Do you know offhand what the 311 weighs in at? I've looked out of curiosity but came up with nothing about the weight.

Even though the Wardog is a thicker blade, I'm from the era where a wider blade meant greater strength for a given thickness. Now if the was true or not I can't really say for sure as I have only broken one "good knife" and believe me, the knives of the past can't hold a candle to those of the present (some of the past blades anyway)

I've looked out of curiosity but came up with nothing about the weight. Let me do some checking, I do know it's really lightweight, another reason it's such a nice little blade.

Anyone here have a Rodent 9, that's a hell of a blade too!! Wonder how the 911 will stack up to the R9...

Oh and don't let the specs on the 311 fool you, it IS NOT 1/4 thick, but 3/16.

I love the Res C handle, more grip, less weight

I know the 511 is at 6.75 oz., I'm guessing the 311 would be a couple ounces light?

I'm a waiting though, I gave JJ my DF back in February! That's ok though, I don't need anything as robust as the DF and JJ does a LOT of camping and needs a blade like that.
