I just got a Ritter Grip, and figured I'd grab a BK12 to go with it since I've been in the market for a new blade in that size range to go with my new BK16 & 17(which are damn fine knives BTW). Knifeworks shows them as available for preorder but when I emailed them about a delivery date they said they did not know.

I'm hoping Mr. Ritter will chime in here, but does anyone know when the next shipment from Rowen will go out?

P.S. in the mean time, pics of your BK12's are always welcome!
 
Don't know when they'll be available again, but do keep trying! My BK12 was my first Becker and is still my favorite large(r) knife.

I had emailed Knifeworks with the same questions,,got the same answer. So I watched the knife exchange pretty close and bought one when it came up. But you have to be quick.
 
My favorite big Becker knife!

It will be worth the wait or the search to find one.
Well thought out design for an awesome blade!
Good luck!!

Lucky! I never seem to catch them on the exchange, and when I do I'm always too late!

Thanks for the pics as well guys! Now I definitely "need" one of these!
 
tell knifeworks what you want. wait. the way of things.

or google. a lot.

That was my plan, but I was hoping Mr. Ritter might jump in with the expected date of the next shipment. I'm not a patient person, LOL, but I think I'll go ahead and place my preorder anyway!
 
the designers are often the last to know :>

the mods more so ;)
 
I'm gald this was brought to our attention. I like the 12, and...with the money, if I had it, I would get one. But the wait.....damn, that's a near deal breaker for me.

I'm impatient when it comes to online ordering......and I hate surprises.
 
I put an ad in the Exchange and i got lucky. I also added micarta and a combat master sheath. My first and favorite Becker so far. I'll post some pics in a bit

Yep,,,looks like they are available. Pre-Order "status" is gone from the website, get em while they are hot!
 
Roger got in a limited quantity on Tuesday, all the pre-orders are shipping and there are some limited quantity in stock, with more on the way "sometime real soon now."

That's all I know. (last to know mode)

Thanks to everyone for you compliments.
 
Thanks for the info!! My order was placed about 15mins ago(I'm on night shift right now) so hopefully I get one of the ones left after the preorders go out! I'm crossing my fingers I get the "your order has been shipped" email tomorrow!
