So I finally caved and got a BK3. It's the only one of the Beckers I didn't have.
I found one for a good price and decide to go for it. It's not one that I was very excited about but ever since I ordered it, I just can't wait for it to arrive!
Should have been here an hour or so ago, the post office is running late today......... as usual. I'm gonna drive the couple miles down the road to the mail box in a few mins and check again. Ugh.... hurry up already!!!
But in the mean time how many of you actually own one of these things? I have only seen a few threads about them over the last couple years. Guess they don't get much love in the woods/outdoor scene, more of a rescue tool. I think I'm gonna leave mine in my Jeep. I told myself that I wasn't gonna do any mods to it, but I think I'm gonna wanna do a little something. I just don't know if I can carry a stock blade. Haha. I like to know that my stuff is unique.
But do any of you actually prefer it over the BK9? I really don't know what to think about it. I always have these ideas of what a new Becker blade will feel like, but I am surprised every time! Like the BK4 for example: I ordered one when they first came out thru Kabar and when it arrived, all I could think is how small this blade is compared to what I imagined. Love it tho but an extralarge machax would be cool.
So I'm thinking this thing will be heavy and that's about it. Don't really know what to expect. Guess we will find out in a little while!
Also I think I never ordered one before cause even tho the video of Ethan and the fire men destroying a car was super cool, I never really saw myself needing to do that. lol
Guess I couldn't come up with a use practical enough to spend the cash on one. But now that I've got all the other Becker's, What else was I to do?
Is it like the BK5? No one likes it till they get one, then it's one of their favorite blades? I know the BK5 was one of the last for me to get of the collection and I love it, Wish I would have gotten it in the beginning instead of the BK7.
Alright, gonna go check the box.
Feel free to comment and share your pics and mods of the BK3, I think it needs some love around here.
