Got my 10 today. It's amazing how different watching pictures and videos can sometimes be from taking the knife in your own hand. I thought I'd like the knife. Now I really didn't need another one, of course :), but it looked good and I liked the design. The 9-like tip on that short blade looked unique and somewhat sturdy and elegant at the same time.
But when I finally pulled it out of it's cardboard cover today, it was a shock. This knife is probably the most beautiful piece of steel that I have ever held in my hand. Call me crazy, but this simple, plain knive is just perfect and I don't like it, I love it. Wow, what a beauty! And the balance is awesome and of course the finish is flawless and it's razor sharp. Remember that movie, '10'? Lol, yeah it's just a knife and it's new, I know . . . but thank you Mr. Becker, you're awesome!

Yah...pics of your virgin 1095 please.
I like the way the 10 looks, but I think when I do pull the trigger on a new BK&T I'm gonna turn it up to 12.
Congrats on your new blade - people always talk about buyer's remorse; they forget about purchaser's ecstasy. Isn't it nice?
 
yeah, the 10's got serious mojo.
 
The 10 is an often underrated knife IMO. I'm glad it's been getting so much attention around here lately. I love mine and it can really be used for just about anything. Unlike the cumbersome and heavy 2 this thing shines at most tasks. If only there was a 2 in this size. I'm going to shave the ramp off mine soon. Then it'll be great...
 
9 was my first Becker and I still love it but it's just a little bit too big for edc, at least where I live.

The straps on the sheath are pretty tight. I wonder, if they loosen up a bit over time. But this baby is probably getting a Kydex sheath anyway.
I think the thumb ramp is awesome and would never take it off.
 
I love my 10, I have the camillius, this one posted and the new KaBar one. The one below is my work horse, the sheath is one of my first ones I have made with leather, about 2 years old. and I just sprayed painted tiger strips on it

Congrats. I think I need a 10. I keep changing my mind about it, I don't know why. It's funny because the 10 is the reason I bought other Beckers. When it was unavailable I wanted it more than anything, now....eh, I'll get one eventually.
 
Damn, and to think I was considering trading my BNIB BK10 for Tweener....RESET :eek: Love your 10, it won't be your last. My first BK was an 11, then it went to a 14, then another 11 and of course as BigHoss says, :You can't not, have a BK 9 :D And this was all within 30 days...go figure, it's a healthy sickness :thumbup:
