BK24 Suprisingly Versital

[mchipman]

So I joined in a "One Knife Challenge" in another forum I frequent (I know, I know, there is only one ) and I chose the BK24 to carry for the month of April and use it exclusively when I need a knife for anything. I haven't shown it much love since I got it and figured this was a good way to get some time with it. I bought it to replace my Ritter MK5 for a neck knife as I wanted to try something a bit bigger and give my son the MK5.
I really am starting to come to love this little knife.

I have been only really using it for food prep till today, I did a few feathers with it (I will post pic later). But it really is a great little cutter and is very versatile. I don't think that it will replace my 16 as my favorite, but as an EDC do everything, it will probably replace my folders.

It replaced my folder for a while. I ended up getting a smaller folder that's pretty much unnoticeable in my pocket. 14 in one back pocket, wallet in the other feels even. Has worked out really great.

Like the 24 my BK 11 is in my pocket everyday.

Just got a bk24, seems to be a pretty handy little knife.

Would like to carry sometime instead of a folder, just haven't figured out a good way to do it yet. I carry a folder in my left front pocket, just gotta toy around with the bk24 in my pocket to see what works I guess.

Some of the knives ship free sheaths might fit but I am not definite.

The bk24 is one great piece of steel! It replaced my folder and is now my EDC.

Great photos, that pizza looks tasty!

I wear a fleece jacket all day most days and it fits in the pocket very well. it is a little longish at 7" but I really haven't noticed the difference a lot from carry a folder.

I don't have a BK24 (YET), but I carry my BK11 daily in-pocket and love it.
In fact, I don't see any reason not to have both on me.

I replaced my folders with a 14 and then a 24 almost 2 years ago. The only time I carry a folder is when I'm in a suit and tie. The 24 is almost perfect for edc for me. I have two custom sheaths for it - 1 one for my belt and the other for my front pocket - and a set of mesquite burl scales. I don't think I'll be selling this one anytime soon.

The Pocono pocket sheath from ksf is absolutely perfect, it might as well be made for a 24 with G-10 scales from TKC and a streamlight micro stream. That combo rides in my right front pocket every day along with a small Spyderco or Benchmade folder clipped in my right rear for quick/discreet jobs. Really great setup for me.
