Cool!
I'd love to see it with some wrapping around that handle!

Cap, Has the sheath been dyed black? Were those brown buttons or translucents?

Dave Loomis will be interested in that one for his model 11 collection!

Cool find.

You are right.
That 11 with an aluminum handle is something I haven't seen or even heard about.
If you ever need a buyer, keep me in mind.
Meanwhile, I will admire it from afar.

The sheath is a Heiser with translucents. I cannot address the "dyed-or-not" part. There will be an article in KNIFE KNEWS: Issue #3, which I am putting together this month. (The newsletter...not just my article)
The knife was ordered by a Doctor who wanted a rugged hunting knife which he could sterilize in an autoclave. Looks like he got it! GTR, Scott, Jason and all of the usual suspects feel confident that there is no other in existence!
More later: By the way: Funny I should see posts from Mitchell and David as I just sent copies of "KNIFE KNEWS" to both of you guys this morning. Glad you like the knife!
Stay sharp, Capt. Chris

Cap,

Those aren't translucents. The brown buttons just absorbed some of the black dye.

Best,

Ron

I missed the 11-5 with translucent buttons that went on EBay a couple of years ago and then resold at the Las Vegas Custom Knife Invitational. It went in both venues before I could make a decision.

The knife was much nicer in person than in the pictures.
