As much as I want this, there may be someone who does not have one, and is in need of it. This one is used but it says, in excellent shape.
I am bidding on it, but if someone here doesn't have one, and wants to bid, let me know and I will back off. If not, well, ya never know where you will run into zombies.
Even used I figure it will go for at least $75.

The zombies are coming eventually! Bid without hesitation! :D
 
Get one for each hand! The zombies are coming!!! :D

Good luck with the auction, Mountainwind.
 
Way back when, Botach had them as low as $59.95. So about $70 shipped, back in the day of production. That was before they became a discontinued model.

http://botac.com/cambktmagcam.html (Don't bother. Botach hasn't had one of these in ages, and they won't be getting any more.)

For my two, I paid $97 shipped (knife store in NC) and $114 shipped (private seller from BF).

I think the last mint eBay BK-5 went for $125 plus shipping.
 
Guyon, I think you're out to corner the market on these knives! ;)
 
I think Mountainwind will be fine when the zombies attack. ;)

Thanks, but since it came up, I have put a lot of irons in the fire. This is going to be a costly week for me.
I hope you get it.......
 
I thought being slightly used it would make a great project knife to go with the rest of mine.....But at $89.00 and days left I will have to keep looking myself.

Hopefully another manufacterer will buy the BT&K License and start up again.

Botach no longer has the BK-5. I can assure you. A few years back, someone here was looking long and hard for a BK-5, and I emailed him the Botach link. (This was long before I even thought about buying one.) He wound up getting the LAST one they had in stock. I remember he sent me a giddy "thank you, thank you, thank you" sort of email. :D

Nice find on the Michigan Knives knife. If I were truly trying to corner the market, I might suck it up and spend the $139. :D If you want it, try sending them an offer. They obviously sell on eBay where prices can vary widely. You never know what a little dickering might accomplish.

The Bk-5's really are sweet. I'm going to use the heck out of one of mine. :thumbup:

Hope so too. If there is a new manufacturer, I hope they bring back the BK-5!

It might be worth seeing if you can "steal it" from Ebay and use one of these for a fallback! :)

oddly, reading the michigan description on their own website, and looking at the pictures... i'm seeing more than "mild handling" to my eyes. it looks like it was used a bit. box opening maybe, definitely some cutting and scrapes on their. nothing major mind, a good user, but it is NOT new in box minty mint. $89? robbery.

good luck to whomever :>

MichiganKnives posted this Becker on ebay yesterday. Looks unused to me. Bladite, maybe you need better glasses.
