Alright, since everybody here likes the Beckers, and since NOBODY carries just one knife:D, what is your combo?

In the winter I took the BK-11/BK-9 and a saw. The BK-9 worked well for batoning wood, and the BK-11 stayed in the pocket for making lunch.

Summer I took the BK-11 and a Buck Mayo neck knife, where the BK-11 handled the heavier batoning and scraping duties since it had the tougher steel, and I used the Buck for food prep, mostly. Both of them fit easily in a pocket.

So, what is your combo? Also, bonus points for pics!:thumbup:
 
oh. well. these days it's Tac Tool for wrecking the camp site, Machax for all the cutting and whittling and other things that needs whacking, and one of the smaller guys usually for rope and food and whatnot. sometimes/always a Campanion naturally.

though i often have a folder on me (a certain Spyderco with a weird shape to it) and a Fiskars brush hook, and axes and ...

now i will probably also have the new Magnum Camp as well, for food and light bush whacking, 12 ounces not including sheath, it's a lot of knife in a light package. i don't ALWAYS need a knife that can cut a bear in half in one swipe. i can often afford to take two or even three swipes ;)

Based upon some related threads, I think I'm going to try coupling a folding saw (silky) to my BK10/SAK OHT combo. My 10 can be swapped-out with my 7, but either way I'm thinking it could be a very versatile combination in addressing just about every need I have from intricate work and food prep to considerable firewood processing.

Dare I say it? Will I have found my "grail" camping/backpacking combo for less than $100 bucks.

Here's a gratuitous pic of my 10 in his black formal wear :) This thing's funner to dress up than my Big Jim sport camper vs GI Joe with the kung fu grip epic outdoor survival esee battles :)

usually its my bk2,bk11 or bk14,a remora around my neck,and a bm 551 in my front right pocket.im getting a bk9 for xmas,so ill be swapping back and forth between it and the bk2 depending on what im gonna be using it for.
 
I only have two bk2 and bk9. So I guess that would be my combo. Seems like a good pair though.
 
I usually carry a Becker and folder combo. Until recently it was either BK7 or BK2 and a RAT1 folder, but I have since retired the folder for EDC. Now I carry either the 7 or the 2 with a Spyderco Manix 2...
