Maybe even a super regulator? Regulator handle on an 1111 would rock. I know it isn't really the style of the Yard, but a choice between an anorexic (3/16) and magnum (5/16) versions would be amazing. Or just do one model at 1/4 inch. Just sayin....

The 1311 handle feels a tad too thin for a comfortable grip for me. I was concerned that the SOD would be the same because when it arrived the handle looked to be the same size. To my surprise, the handle fit fine. I measured the handles with a caliper and the SOD is indeed bigger. I wonder if the older dogs have thicker handles than the new production? SOD has thicker stock than 1311. Imagine hauling another pound on that beast.

I have both a 911 and a MOAB. I originally thought the handles would be to small and would need to be built up in some way. After actually using them, for no more than three minutes at a time, I no longer find them to small. The size allows them to sort of pivot in your hand, letting the weight of the blade provide it's own power to the swing.

Interesting. Not sure I need a Scrap Yard Basic 11, but interesting.
