Just recieved it
Ok so I decided on the Becker Utility 7 for several reasons primarily due to the price difference and also due to the fact that I liked how the knife looked as well as the many positive reviews I've seen on it. Well it arrived today and what seemed to be one of the longest days at work all seemed worth it as I opened the box... Wow, first impresions last a lifetime, and well, this knive is amazing. I wasnt so sure what to expect from it due to the fact that I payed 50 bucks for it and I have this belief that you really do pay for what you get...This knive is one heck of a knive, I cant see how you can beat it for price, looks, and uses out in the woods...Out of the box it definetely shaved with ease...Ok so now I was on a mission, I had that look in my eyes, the look that my girlfreind could see I was up to no good..Out to the shed I go, rumaging through all the outdoor gear I've accumulated over the years.. Ahhh, 2x4's, a bunch of them...So away I went, hacking through these with a sick kinda grin of my face, periodically checking the sharpness against the hairs on my arm...Still shaves.... Damm, now I got to go back out there and clean the chunks of wood from the deck...This by far is an awesome knive at an awesome price.. And its strong, I dont see how you could manage to break this thing. The arrival of this knive couldnt have been at a better time, for Im off for a 4 day backpacking trip in NY..I'll post more reviews on the overall performance of it when I get back...Ahhhh so If anyone's camped out in the hills of NY and happens to hear a constant choping late at night, its not the some crazed animal lurking about , its me having some fun constructing some camp chairs...See ya. Thanks for all the help guys and enjoy your weekend...

What part of New York will you be backpacking in? I may do a little dayhike in the Catskills this weekend.
