  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Guesses?

The handles on my BK-15 has a nice texture to it. IMO it is just right. I like that the tweener handle slabs are solid material instead of hollow like on the full size BK's. Finally found a allen wrench to fit those bolts and switched over to the brown handle scales and they've really grown on me.

I'd like to see handles for the BK-11 made out of this material. It would probably be a whole lot cheaper than the micarta ones.

Micarta has a way better feel, especially for the tweeners. when I first felt the 16 I was like "urgh...needs some carta".

I thought i read somewhere that the 11 in san mai was not a success due to material issues, but I dont know what (if any) the issue was...so I also agree with Thrill.

If we're voting, 15 in SS.

They better not. If they do they better continue making the 1095CV version also:mad:

Doubt it, if they do to keep the price the same it'll be something like 440 or something?

Eww. No.

No no no.

One of the BIG selling points for Becker, for me, is they are made out of one of my favorite steels; 1095. I will not buy a stainless steel Becker. Ever.
 
yeah, I like carbon...I wouldnt mind a small blade is SS but I want my bigger ones in good ol' 1095CV

Did you buy a BK 7 or 9 when they came with a Remora?

I will take any Becker in s30 or 35. If they are feeling completely awesome they could roll out 100 of each and watch them get gobbled up quick as poo.
 
Meh, if Becker's start costing the same as Busse's, or even ESEE's, you'll only see me with cheap knives. The draw for me is bang for buck, if they lose that advantage, well I might as well start using just Moras..... Don't get me wrong, I want Mora's anyhow, but you get the point.
