It's absolutely one of my favorites, but even our leader, Mr. Stidham, doesn't care for musk ox. The "other" guy didn't like the Com.#2!! Oh well.... Best, Capt. Chris

Captain,
I believe you used the name "Green Musk Ox" to define this handle color. Is the color difference natural or is it dyed during stabilization? I saw that knife at the show, it looked very nice.

Ken,
You posted so many knives recently I missed this one. Model 11's are very near an dear to me and this one of yours is no exception. For anyone who ever wished for a fantastic 11 in IW, you might have "the one". You're on a roll, keep it going.

Warren,
I am normally not a big fan of Brass furniture, but I have to admit that it goes extraordinarily well with Ironwood. And, the Brass and Black spacers add to the overall effect.

I know I'll probably take some flak on this one but this was one of those that I aquired in a trade. I don't have any other knives in Yellow Micarta and this 11-5 seemed really nice. I wouldn't mind a companion knife someday in black with the same options.
