Becker Knife Fans

[oldman/Marty]

Hey Guys,
I talked with my good friend Ethan Becker last night and he gave me an update on his knife line. Ka-Bar is making them and they will be debuting some new models in January, 2008 at the Shot show. One in particular that sounds really good is a new neck knife made of both carbon steel and stainless with an injection molded case. Anyway, the older models won't be available for a while yet but they are doing their best to get the line up and running. If I get any other info I will post it here.
