Im KIDDING (sort of...).

For a start, tell us a little about what you intend to do with the knife.

I like some knives from both companies, but must admit to being partial to Scrapyard.
 
dude my english isnt very good
i cant understand all you mean
i just want add my collections
 
Trailmaster has a very well finished edge and stainless. I prefer this knife.

However, that is only one person's opinion and it boils down to what you need from it.
 
I have owned both and I would take the Trailmaster. The 911 has a more comfortable handle but the edge on the 911 was so thick that it was only useful for a wedge or batoning. It wasn't very useful as a knife. The Trailmaster is full convex from the spine to the edge and as a result cuts and chops much better. The Trailmaster also costs quite a bit more. I may be a bit biased though, I am a sucker for Bowies with hand guards.

thanks man
great advice
 
San Maii 3 vs sr101? I'll take an sr101 anytime. You can request to have a thinner edge when you buy the 911. You should do a search on res c and Kraton handle. Longevity, toughness, edge retention and edge retention will go to the sr101. If you look at the composition of both steels and the HT, you'll know what to get
