BK5 handle

[grogimus]

TKC handles all day on the 5 for me, I love them. There's almost no change in the balance of the knife and they're still plenty comfortable even thinned out a bit.

I had micarta handles on the green handled 5 but switched them to the 21. The green handled 5 is the only Becker I use with the stock grips. Nothing wrong with the Grivory, the handle is engineered perfectly to fit the contours of a hand. I just like the feel of a little texture in the handle.

I tried the TKC scales on the 4, 9, and 21, I didn't care for that as much. I like micarta for the choppers.

Get the g10 from tkc. They make the knife feel more proportionate imo. The factory scales seem wierdly big for such a slicey blade. I posted a thread on my experience a little while ago that i need to update wig more pics. Here it is: http://www.bladeforums.com/threads/...the-bk20-and-bk5.1503065/page-2#post-17277848
