BK5 vs BK7 Which one?

[MTHall720]

Has anyone here onwned both these models? I am familiar with the BK7 KaBar but have not handled the BK5 "Magnum Camp Knife".

They are two very different knives. BK5 is going to be better for food prep, slicing, etc. BK7 is going to be better for batonning, chopping, etc. I like the BK7 better but opinions vary.
