How often do you use your Beckers?

I was using the 15 daily on the farm but it's taken a back seat to a new puukko. May swap out for the 15 tomorrow, though.

Likewise wish I had a good reason to use one daily cos "a Becker a Day, helps you work, rest and play". Would be nice if there was BK folder, then more chance of using one as a more EDC

It's done most of those things! When I go camping now, I'm trying to take one knife at a time to get good use out of it. I used to take a knife bag that was completely ridic. I'm actually pretty happy my 5 is getting daily use.

Ok that's good. I was worried for it for a second. ;)
 
I have been carrying my 24 daily for a couple of weeks now, and I love it. The 16 or something bigger lives in my pack, but rarely sees much in the way of use. Still, having it handy provides a lot of peace of mind. Now I do have the Becker kitchen set that I use fairly often in the kitchen. Damn good knives those.

Yeah, the kitchen knives are definitely a daily (sometimes hourly) user. I was really hoping to see a second set come out, because I'd love a Becker pairing knife that went along with these.

Here one in use with my improper grip...cutting up grilled venison tenderloin.

I always have a couple with me, but really the 11 sees the most daily use. Belt carry (horizontal in the front, crossdraw) anytime I'm not at work. It would be ever so useful at work, but 99% of the time I'm in MA and it's not a real knife friendly state. Used my 11 last night doing some electrical work at a friend's house - instrumental in getting the old steel box out of the wall. Funny thing is he's a veteran carpenter ('bout retired at 65 in a couple weeks) but he won't touch electricity. His cutouts for the boxes I installed were outrageously done, though! Also used the 11 for opening the lubricant for the job ;). Damned handy blade.
 
As winter fades my beckers will get much more use. BK21 rides on my 4-wheeler, if I'm in the woods I carry a BK9 with a BK24 piggyback, around the house I carry my BK15. Think I'm gonna try my BK24 as a edc and see how I like it.

If you count the becker kitchen knives then my wife uses them every day and she loves them, not much of a cook myself.
 
I try to use one of them every day - and usually succeed. Mostly the 11, 24 and 15, but today aw the RBK in action a well as the 16.
 
My 11 sees the most use, then the 24 or the 16. Mostly EDC stuff, cutting up lunch, opening bags or boxes. Once it gets warmer out and we start to venture out more, the 16 of the 7 will get a lot more use.
 
My 15 mostly lives in the kitchen (also a Kabar fillet). Its slowly turning into an orange(no pic handy now).
