Aeb-l

[fielder]

I've owned some great Beckers. But I'd love something in a tough , easy to sharpen, stainless such as Aeb-l Any chance?

that'd be nice, but it's not likely.
there have been a couple of S30 and S35 Becker knives, but they were limited runs, and so are hard to find and more than a little pricey on the secondhand market.
OTOH, there are a couple of beckerhead knifemakers who work with it.

I could sure use a 5 in AEB-L.
That would be an incredible blade.

 

[fielder]

Yes, or a 7 or one of the smaller blades

I’ve been beating the AEB-L drum for Beckers for a while now, and mostly just screaming into the night.

In mass production, I don’t think it would add significantly to the cost.

I’d love a 16 AEBL.

The 15 & 5 returning in AEB-L would get me all giddy ...

the 16 would be a nice knife to make a run in AEB-L also.

I love AEB-L. My stockpile of Becker’s would grow substantially if some were offered in AEB-L. Just imagine a BK14 with a longer handle in AEB-L....it would be the perfect water knife....

From your lips to KaBar’s ears

I'd definitely buy some in Aeb-l. It is tough enough for a 7 too.

I really like AEB-L in small to mid sized blades ... it would be nice on the tweeners ...

Sounds great! I'll take a 15.

I seem to remember reading a review of a large blade or machete made with Aeb-l. The flexibility and toughness was astounding.
But yes, anything from a 7 down would be great.

I know this has been posted elsewhere, but it was the icing on the aeb-l cake for me.
