I've been wanting one for quite some time ! I picked this Beauty up here on BladeForum's NIB In the For Sale Section, And I know I'll be adding the BK9 "Real Soon" Cuz I Love Big Blade's ! As soon as I got It I put a Para-Cord Wrap on the BK13 but soon realized It then would'nt fit the Sheath, So I Unwraped It, This Is a Great Combo, The Fit and Finish Is Perfect, I'll get some user picture's up late'er, But for now here's my New BK7 !

Untill I get my BK9, I got a comparison picture next to my Favorite 9" Blade'ed Knife "My Cold Steel Trail Master In Carbon V "Made In USA" Like the Becker Ka-Bar line "Made In the USA ! I will be doing a comparison In performance when I get my BK9 against my Trail Master ! I also got two Custom 9" Blade'ed Knive's on Order from "Koyote" that I'll be getting In August, Then were gonna see a 9" Blade Comparison field Test !

Grats and nice score on the 7. It really is a fantastic knife. Love the way it looks and feels in hand.

Thank's here's one more picture side by side, The Trail Master at a Full 1/4" Thich Blade, I'll have to measure the BK7, That's one thing I aint done yet, I'm not sure on the Ka-Bar Spec.'s for the Blade Thickness on the BK7 or the BK9, I added In the BK7 Spec.'s above, I'm reading 5/32" Thick on my Measuring Device,

Nice pictures. The Beckers have real handles. The Trail Master's handle is just a bit too thin for my taste.
 
Yep, I agree with shangchi108. The Becker handles are one of the things that make Beckers the great knives they are. Most comfortable, controllable handles that I've ever used.
 
Great knife, great photos. im waiting for my BK-7. just ordered one from
New Graham. cant wait any more mannnn. Those Knives man i love them.

Well Mr. Becker, i wasn't quite honest with you. my wife do like the BK-11...
but when the BK-2 arrived, she looked at it and said: "what's on T.V. hon..?"
the day the BK-9 arrived,she thought that may be something is wrong with her husbend :" since when are you interested in swords..??!!"
lets hope dear Ethan, that we will survive the seven...;)

Both Knive's feel great In my Hand, I've had my Trailmaster for going on 10 year's now, And I've yet to find a Blade that'll out Cut It, And the Handle's I think are Indestuctible and perfect In wet weather/And Muddy condition's, I aint had the BK7 out In the Mud & Rain yet, But I'll let you all now what I find In my review when I put the BK9 against the Trail Master,
