I am more and more thinking this will be my next knife. EDC-able, and the zytel handles make a huge difference from the last one I had. Add a Godspeed! Sheath, and its a nice package. Then I'm going back to the big Beckers.
Nice man, getcha some scales...it totally changes the feel of the knife.
I guess I'm the exception to the rule on this. Or, perhaps it's just the way I pull it out of the sheath or something. Mine's still shaving sharp.This BK (like almost all) came sharping sharp out of the box, after taking it in and out of the sheath 20+ times it has KILLED my edge!!
nice! i just got my necker in today as well, kinda wishing i went with the eskabar.

No...I've never had issues with mine dulling either. I've never understood what all the sheath dulling hub-bub was all about.
Since I have custom scales coming I have just been goofing around with some extra paracord I have been meaning to use up.
So I decided I would give this a try.

I kept the originally wrapping in the pictures above and then just wrapped that around over it again. It actually makes it feel great in hand and almost like it has scales! I don't plan on leaving it on, but I do like it so far!
The micarta scales make a huge difference on the BK-11. I love mine. I'll still probably pick up that 14 though.
BTW...Congrats on the new blade!! The Neckers are awesome!
