Have always admired that design, and thought I would do a "Beckerized" rendering. I took this photo from that thread:
I then cut it out using the GIMP program, then resized it using the same. Shadow added:

I then used that direct copy of the cut out, to render what I perceive at least, to be what this knife would look like if it were a Becker blade. The "Beckhart", if you will:

Animation showing how I used the original Kephart shape:

A fun rendering to do. Thanks for looking.
EDIT:
Clear coat version:
