So I just placed an order for the 3 although I didn't use Tomar's this time. The sales tax and shipping was just too much for me to accept, in total it was running at 25% the price of the knife itself. Now I just need a regular Necker and that leaves only the 5 which I may never buy. The rest of the Becker line are the non-production suckers that I will have to hunt for.
 
Awesome! By the way, how NY sales tax? Oh...you're definately getting the BK5;)
 
Oh good, I was worried you might not get one after your last batch of Beckers arrived. Congrats you crazy collector, you!

Heh. I told myself I would never buy a 3. After hanging out here long enough, I had to have one. I said the same thing about the 5. Heck, I even had it in my hands during the passaround and was pretty sure I would never buy one. Lately however, the BK5 has been calling to me.

You're new, and I don't know you very well, but your spending habits are pretty obvious. :p You will have the BK5 within three months. I can tell.

My spending habits are that obvious? :( Are you calling me a knife slut? Damn, I hate it when people are right. ;) I swear though, I'm going to try harder than that 'no knife March' slut. :D

Dude, I'm right here. I have feelings you know.
 
I just use it when the post involves OREGON FAL'ER.

Yes the pot calling the kettle black...and the kettle calling the charcoal black...
Its ok...I've been at the receiving end of the "S" word...and like you I've accepted what I am. Its the first step...although this Becker knife addiction is hard to kick...

This picture is missing my other BK2 and BK10...
 
a good start but you have a long way to go :)
 

A whole lot.:eek:

Bladites is the largest BKT collection in the world. He bought a Machax from Ethan, when E was still making them in a garage. No joke, true story.

Tomar's lists NY sales tax at 8.85%, ain't that a b*.

Dude you do NOT wanna know what I go through up here. If I'm lucky enough to find Canadian distributers I can handle the 15%!!!! tax we have in Quebec. If not Im stuck ordering paying exchange (which is in my favour for the time being:cool:), astronomical shipping rates, and then I get hit again at customs. Makes me want to open my own knife store sometimes...

ARGH. I was browsing around and saw a Becker knife I didn't have and said to myself "Hrm, that doesn't look half bad." It was a friggin 5! ARGH! Curse you sqoon! It's happening...
 
You guys are killing me. Well.. this whole forum is.

i've got 5 knives headed my way now - my wife... is probably happy to not know of their existence!
