How about a Becker folder?

[shootist16]

I am a big fan of Mr. Beckers designs. they are all well thought out and mission oriented. I, for one, would like to see Mr. Becker focus his talents on a folder.

Good luck on getting Ethan to do folders He likes doing fixed blades more....but maybe we'll let Will work on him about that!!

Heh, BK&T Folder would rock!

Hmm... a big, rugged folder in high carbon steel would have a LOT of appeal. Sign me up.

A Becker folder that matches the "knife for the money" value of the fixed blades would be awesome.

Guys,
I like the idea in a lot of ways myself, but....

Ethan and I agree that a folder is just a "pre-broken fixed blade" when it comes to a hard working knife. There are more BK&T's planned for the future, but at this time, we have no folders for the BECKER line on the drawing board.

Okay, how about a Becker designed fixed blade for daily carry? maybe a 3-4" blade with a kydex, multicarry sheath?

And: Don't forget to thin out the Becker handle scales, seeing that the present scales are, by popular concensus ( I think so, at least), too thick. Thinner scales would free us (me) from replacing the too thick handles with either:
(a)pricey G-10 replacement handles
or (b)laboriously made home-made scales.

In conclusion: Thin out the Becker handles! Now!
please?

Try the BKT handles on a knife with thinner blade stock like the BK-7 (.188") if you find the handles too big.

I handled a BK-9 (.210") last week and it was perfect for my hand.
