Whats the weight on the KZ?

I think the 13-11 would still be the one to throw in the pack and maybe use the KZ around the house.

First video added, the first two scenes are the 1311 and the Zilla chopping the same thickness of wood, the final is the Zilla chopping a much thicker section. The wood is melaleuca. Just a quick phone video, I do plan on doing another, with my real camera, and on some more secured items ( clamped down so they don't bounce) and some more uniform wood ( 2x4 s and plywood)

That wood sounds...tropical?

Looks like the KZ was going to make it all the way through on that first chop! Yeeesh!

Looks like the KZ is still king, huh? Hows about feel, quickness in hand and agility? Against 1 zombie....the KZ- against 5???? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

It's one of those imported trees, Australia I believe. They brought them in to dry up the land down here.

As of right now, I'm just comparing on straight chopping ability, nothing else. I'll have more to say about the general all around awesomeness of the 1311 after I use it more for a range of different things.

I'll say this, I used it to clear my neighbors holly tree from my property line, it was outstanding.

Mine hasn't arrived yet I am concerned about the handle size
What size gloves do you wear if you don't mind my asking

Not at all, large usually. I think the ones I'm wearing there are large. The large Res-c handle is a great length, could be a little thicker, to fill the hand more, but its way better than the basic 11 handle

Thanks
