So, I was thinking it would be a good resource to have a table comparing all the differences of the Becker line up. I found different numbers from various sources and took my best guess at determining the most accurate source. Please check it out and tell me if you see any errors, or if you want me to add anything.

Edit: I gave up on trying to embed it and figured out how to convert it to a table.

yeah... sorry guys. I just made up a spreadsheet comparing all the beckers and I was trying out different code and then hitting preview post. I hit the post button by accident. I am going to continue working on it while and then edit the post and add it. I guess we can get the ball rolling on the thread though and I'll get back to trying to embed. I'll update my main post within the next couple of minutes.
 
I think the winner has already been announced.
 
Trade, it only goes up to 473. Anyway, spreadsheet looks good to me. Did you consult the sharp kitty's database?
 
for the current line up the PDF is the way to go for the most accurate official information.

then, when we have knives in hand, we can measure and mic them and see what's up.

you strippers should also mic yours so we can determine overall coating thicknesses.

and of course, for historical purposes... yeah, there's that thing over there... it's mostly right.

We prefer, entertainers.
 
I used the blade database and the new pdf for most things. I had to search a couple of things. I put in the weight with sheath and blade height because I figured that would be good info to have on hand. I am hoping some of you might have some numbers I could update it with. It sucks I wasn't able to embed the google doc as updating it will be more difficult and we lose the pretty grid lines. If anyone has code I could try to embed with that would be sweet. Would we want to have stripped and unstripped thicknesses? I am not sure how exact we want this to be, would we want posted specs or personal specs as those will change user to user more dependent on how calibrated their instruments are or if they got a thick/thin one. I don't really know and I am down for whatever. This is for everyone so however people feel and I will update the post.


I am going to be constantly updating errors... I just spotted a big one 8)
 
Nice, I got lines added. Any ideas on having to scroll right? (I'm not on a widescreen, is there any scrolling for you?)
 
your best bet is to print the document as a PDF, wide format, and see what you can do with hosting that.

not everyone can view a spreadsheet, and certainly not with proper formatting. printed, you can tailor it how you like.
