Someone mentioned that the SanMai Necker was limited and when it ran out, it was out. So I decided what the hay... and I might as well get my money worth on the shipping so I added a friend for the Necker, their name is EsKabar.

Oregon Fal'er - Yes, I know I'm a slut.
Zaleski - The 77 arrives Tuesday.
Slapper - I hate you. ;)

Congrats on the BK3! As you can all probably tell by now, I pretty much have absolutely no will power... so my next purchase is a toss up between the BK3 or the ZT0300. Priority wise, the BK3 should be first because I want to pick it up for my B.O.B. The ZT0300 is just a "nice to have." I am determined to get the ZT right before Summer begins, so I have April and May to build up some cash reserves and buy the BK3.

I think a 'zaan should be next!, or a Seb! Either one would impress the hell out of you!

I dunno man, like I've said before, the blade aesthetics just doesn't do it for me. I think it's awesome though that I just purchased a small horde of steel and there's plenty left in the line-up that I can look forward to getting. In fact, I own fewer models than what I still have to get! If I were to pick up the BK5, my Becker shopping list (that I'm aware of) consists of:

BK1, Brute | BK3-TacTool | BK4, MachAx | BK5, Magnum Camp | BK6, Patrol Machete
BK71, Combat Utility "Desert Series" | BK8, Helicopter Egress | BK91, Combat Bowie "Desert Series"
BK10, Crewman | BK101, Crewman "Desert Series" | BK??, BK&T/Reinhardt Kukri

I'd love to see Bladite's Becker collection all in 1 photo...

what? this old thing?

1048075564_eYGtZ-XL.jpg


it's a little out of date now... since then, i've gotten the last KaBar item i didn't have, the BK7, and have otherwise added a few more to the pile... mostly older stuff that i found all at once.

so, it's missing mmm, at least 6 more Beckers :)

going to need a bigger "blanket" soon.

@ Arkanian -Sweet, now you just need to order some micarta for all those blades :p, great looking collection man!

@ Bladite ...... That is amazing. What would be your all time favorite if you were forced to choose just one? I'm guessing the machax judging from your sig?

"Holy Beckers Batman!" ...

Very nice.
 
Bladite ,

Is that a sawback bk2 on the bottom row near the middle? Do you have an close ups? Is that a custom job? Did you do it yourself? Anyways, pretty cool.

Holy Crap! No way you are married!

I'm married and have 2 daughters (4 & 2). She would not have approved so I didn't ask... ;) Like I said, I let her know about 1 for every 10 I order. So far she knows about 2 of my knives - the RTAK-II and the OSO Sweet. I freaked out this morning because FedEx rang the doorbell, thankfully it was an order she placed for children's gummy vitamins and fish oil.

I have 3 more packages I need to intercept, the recent Tomar's order for the 11CSM and 14, the Ka-Bar's order for the 77 and the Knifeworks order for the RSK Mk2 (although for this one I think there is going to be some additional wait time).
