Nice! Always nice to see the finer work being done by the large knives. It's no surprise that they can chop and split, but the fine work isn't a given. Great job!

Mmmm.....took both the 911 and 1111 for a ride today. Its a tough choice. I was using the 11 more but the 9 sure feels light.

I love the big knives and I'll be honest I think they are actually easier to use than smaller knives in some ways.

Like the rest of you guys, I am a huge fan of the 911. In my opinion, its smaller size makes it more versatile and more comfortable to wield than something like a 1311 yet it still manages to do a very respectable job at chopping duties. So far I prefer it over the 1311 for light brush chores.

Sometimes it's wiser to keep the driver in the bag and hit 3-wood off the tee. grin

It along with the 411 were my first two Yard knives. The perfect companion knives imo. If it cant be done with those two, it cant be done.

I think the Safety Mutt and Mudd Mutt along with 911 or 1111 would be a awesome combination.

Very much so. Roughly the same specs.

You see here's the problem, you go starting a thread like this just as I have decided I don't need a 911 while fondling my 711 and organising payment for the Dogfather I just snagged. Are you trying to send me bankrupt or what? wink

These are the best knives for the money hands down, and having a large number of them is defiantly worth it in my opinion.
But, with that said, most of us who have lots of dogs didn't buy them all at once, trying to do that can easily overwhelm your budget. I have found that you can amass a good group with a slow, steady buying pace.

The potential for models to be discontinued complicates this buying strategy, however older models can often be had on the BF exchange (and elsewhere) for reasonable prices.

There are some great deals on there sometimes and Skunk Hunters Specs thread with the issue prices helps a lot in knowing if your getting a fair shake.

I try to only have knives I am going to use. Thus the collection will sit as follows:

511, Scrapper 5, Scrapper 5 LE, 711, Dogfather (plus RMD and TGLB). smile
