Both these knives mean something to me more than just a bought knife.
Ethan gave me the BK-4 prototype at the Spirit of Steel show, and I won the BK-7 in one of Ark's contests.
I don't remember exactly how I won it, but it probably involved snark.
Also, Bladite gave me the Texas Hunt Co. camo sheath, knowing that it was the only color I didn't buy. Very cool.

So I finally got around to ordering a sheath for the Machax from Ka-Bar. And I picked up some micarta for both knives.
I'm vowing to get the BK-7 out more and use it. I've long been more of a 9/14 combo kind of guy, but the 7 is begging for a beating. Soon.

There was a thread a while back about the Ka-Bar micarta being too rough grained.
I found these latest scales to be relatively smooth though. Enough grain to be grippy, but still really well done. :thumbup:
 
I just don't see myself as having a use for the 4... That is very nice though man! The Micarta really looks nice.

I live downtown, I don't go out into the woods THAT often... I would rather spend the $80 and get the 9, then the 2.

oh yeah, 'cause you need a 9 in the city.
Look, both are great zombie slayers. If you can justify a 9 you can justify a 4. :D

The 9 I can use in the kitchen... I break down a giant amount of beef for the restaurant. I have to trim and cut whole ribloin.

So learn to do it with the 4. Just tell them it's an exotic American made cutlery tool. :D

wait, i gave you that? :)

i myself don't have a use for the NEW one... like the old one too much... but i have many of the new ones anyway and use them. wait. mmm. i'll think about that.

while i smite something!
 
I haven't found the factory micarta to be too rough, either. I almost wish the set on my Machax was a little rougher.
 
The micarta handles look great!! Can you tell me where I can acquire some handles like this for my BK2?
 
I need to get a set of that new Ka-Bar micarta. I like the light sand color of it. Mine that I got a couple years ago are fairly dark brown.
