Thanks a million to Adam C, Aka SnakeDoc for letting me borrow his BK2! As soon as I grabbed the box out of the mailbox and felt the weight I knew I was in for something special. I guess I was expecting something bigger but I was pleasantly suprised:thumbup: the 2 feels like it can do anything and ask for seconds. Adam told me to beat her like it owed me $ so I did:D. I started with batoning some pine, the BK2 chuckled and asked for more so I used it for about an hour to do some clearing under a big pine tree in my frontyard basically I was using it like a machete, chopping limbs off and batoning the bigger ones once again the 2 laughed at me! Next I went looking for a log of unknown species which had destroyed the edge :eek:of my Condor Varan on a previous day. I'm not sure what type of wood it is maybe some super weathered 5 year old oak, but whatever it is really did a number in no time. Naturally I wanted to see how tough the BK2 would be and weather it would suffer the same results. After about 5 -10 min and me getting tired from all the chopping and making a nice mound of feathersticks I looked at the edge, no measurable damage :D ( I really wish I hadn't sold my camera) Immediately after doing these tasks I went online and snatched up a BK2 and a BK9 as well. I'm not really sure why the Condor rolled so badly and the Becker didn't maybe its the HT, all I know is the 2 performed flawlessly. Basically if U needed a great all around, tough as nails camp blade I'm sure any Becker would do just fine, I also have a BK11 and its tough as hell as well. I know the Machax and Tweeners will be in my future as well:thumbup: Again thanks to Adam for letting me borrow his blade that is a very cool thing to do for someone u don't even know and if anyone is on the fence over a BK2 which I doubt, just pull the trigger it won't let u down and prob be the best $ 50-60 you ever spent:thumbup:
 
I agree, the bk-2 was my first fixed blade purchase and when I got it in the mail I was honestly stunned. And for the price point at $60 or so I just really wanted to beat the crap out of it. And let me say I did just that, and that may be why if I go in the woods my bk-2 and bk-9 are the first things I grab.
 
Jwolf,

It will blow every other non-Becker knife you have ever had out of the water. I just love using it for anything knife related. I'll find an excuse and then just USE it. Take advantage of that blade thickness, too.
 
Thanks for the review Bro!

Glad you enjoyed your time with the BK2 and that she performed well for you. It really is a tank of a knife and I know that it can handle more than I could ever throw at it.
 
what? no camera phone even? go buy a camera or a real phone :)

good review :D
