Thanks Swamp Rat for such a cost efficient beastly blade :thumbup:
 
How does the handle feel?

Congrats on the new goods!

It is just a skosh big for my girly hands(a little mod and BAM) but all of those who disliked the 511 grip (I love it) should be happy with this one. Its beggin me to beat her, just dont wanna make my M9 jealous. Will get some pics of the M9 and R9 next to eachother soon.
 
Mine are shipping this afternoon so I should have them in hand by Thursday!
 
I will have mine in time for weekend in the woods, I will get to break it and my Rucki in at the same time
 
Congrats on the Knife Eric, it looks good, just different!

Nice one! I like the Beer and Knife pic! Why is it they seem to go so well together!:p
 
That is pretty cool :thumbup:


So, what mod did you do to get the handle feeling better?

Different is good! As is the price! Get one bro, you wont regret it.

Natta yet (if it doesnt become a user I wont) but if I did I just grind the first swell slightly shorter.

Here are a few more pics

One good thing about you Eric is a NMFBM always makes it in a pic!!!! thanks!!!!
 
The M9 looks like the better of the two from here. I'm just not digging the weird handle cut-outs on the new line. I will reserve final judgement of it until I hold one, but I can't imagine it feeling better than the M series. Although, I do like the new blade grinds.

The 511's remind me of the ole Camp Tramp. Do you have one to compare size?
 
Good looking knife. I like the handles, but have never held one. Look's like it would be a good grip.
 
Awww yeeeah. Thanks for the pics, DD :thumbup::thumbup:

Great looking blade and the standard black/black canvas looks killer. Psyched to get this one in hand :cool:
