Has anyone gotten the Micarta scales for the BK-11 yet?

I ordered a set yesterday. I have the san mai version of the necker. They look pretty nice. Once I get them on this should be a good user.
 
Reeek, Thank you for the pictures! I always feel better when I can see a "Non-catalog" picture of the item. I'll be ordering a set of these shortly!
 
thanks for the pics,and they do make the knife a "looker", but i have a question...if a person was to carry the BK-11 as a neck knife how much more noticable would the weight of these be?

They can't weigh more than a fraction of an ounce. A very small fraction.
 
I got mine and put them on the san mai necker. A bit of sanding to get them to fit into the inserts but nice and tight when done. They are actually flush on the top and overhand the bottom handle a bit. I am going to have to sand them flush. Overall really nice though. The san mai version must be a bit undersized on the handle compared to the carbon steel version. The slabs make it a user now.
 
I ordered some on Monday.. can't wait.. I'm thinking of drilling a divot on one side sow I can use it as a bowdrill socket.
 
They really make the BK-11 feel more like a user. Great addition IMHO.
