It's the 20th Anniversary 111 model that was released earlier this year. They were introduced in 2005 as a variation of the 110 with curved bolsters, like the 55. I'm a little confused on when they were discontinued, so maybe someone who actually knows what they're talking about will come along, and fill us in.


You're correct. I was thinking of the 101 fixed blade.I think you're thinking of the 101 fixed blade.

See the tracks on that piece of ash firewood in my 2nd pic? That's how the Emerald Ash Borers killed the tree. EAB is an invasive from Asia for which there's no known native predator.
Have a fine Saturday. Stagurday or Schradurday, or whatever gets yer motor runnin.
Thank you Jeff. I carry everything I have. I tend to have a better day if I have a great knife in my pocketPocket knives don't get this way by sitting in a drawer.
I'll bet that RCC Barlow feels like silk in your hand. Beautiful.
I grew up in metro Detroit in the 60's and seventies. Many streets were lined with Elms as you describe. Simply beautiful trees. They were all dead and gone by the time I went off to collegeGreat selection of knives.
Sad the EAB is killing the Ash trees. I hope they fair better than the Elms in the place I "grew up".
City lost something like 90% of the Elm trees to Dutch Elm Disease.
Several streets that had Elm trees on both sides wound up getting sunshine on the pavement for the first time in 80 or 90 years for over a mile, after the sick trees were felled.
Somehow even single trees that were several blocks from another Elm tree were lost.
The 170 plus year old Elm (planted by the original owner, one of the Lumber Barons, when the house was built in the 1830's or 1840's) in my grandparent's front yard was one of the solo trees lost.
(I "grew up" in Clinton, Iowa. The Lumber Capital Of The World, in the early to mid 1800's. At the time Clinton also had more millionaires per capita than any other city in the world. I believe there were over 20 lumber mills in the town. Clinton sits on the Mississippi River. Lumber from MN. and WI. were floated down. Allegedly, around half the town is built on leveled sawdust mounds. Supposedly, some of that sawdust has been smoldering for over 200 years now. "Spontaneous Combustion" "thanks" to flood water seeping through the ground over the years.)
