I have a Becker BK2 up for trade. I received this a bit ago in new condition. It was used on one trip, most on some carving/whittling type work and just a small bit of batoning (2 to 4 inch pieces). It did a a great job - However, it's just too big for what I would intend to use it for.

When I originally received the knife, it sported a brilliant mirror finish and maroon scales. After using the knife for the first (and only) time, the mirror finish was marred in spots along the blade and the micarta became pretty dark from use. It was also pretty dull out of box. I intended to keep the knife which is why it now has a patina on the blade. The knife has been resharpened, convex, and the micarta was cleaned up via an old toothbrush and soapy water. Some parts of the micarta are still dark even after a thorough cleaning. This is merely cosmetic and won't affect the performance at all. After looking at the stock picture, it seems as if the dark spots are normal even when brand new. I think cleaning the scales brought those spots out more. The knife will come with the standard sheath and box.

MOVED TO FOR SALE...
