I just put my order in for my first Becker a BK-15. They were going for a deal I was not going to pass up. I had been wanting a Becker for a while and since the 15 is being discontinued i figured i might as well start on the endangered list. So I am now officially the owner of a Becker, the waiting begins. It should be here by monday or tuesday. Ill post some pics when it gets in.

Congratulations and welcome aboard. Becker knives are great and you will simply adore the 15.

It's just a matter of time now before you get your second Becker, then your third, then you will find yourself selling off every other knife you own to purchase more Beckers, then you will be selling everything else you own besides knives to buy even more. Eventually, you'll quit your job and spend all your time on the internet learning everything there is to know about Becker knives. Next you'll sacrifice the luxuries of eating regularly and living indoors so as to be able to buy even more Beckers. This all assumes that you do not have an addictive personality.:D

All kidding aside, use that 15 in good health and happy hunting for #2.

G10 made by a forum member. He hasn't been making them lately though. They're pretty easy to make yourself out of various polymer media.

So here they are the pics of my new BK15. It came in on monday and I instantly loved it its so slicey. I decided i wanted to strip the blade and it was a pain in the mother f***ing ass. So I went with Jasco paint stripper and it worked to spray and coat the one side. I waited 15 minuets and scraped the first side pretty much clean the first time. Went to spray the 2nd side and the can wouldn't work. So I was trying to unclog the can and almost blinded myself and a few drops of it hit my face cause like an idiot I had lowered my mask. So after that fiasco I went and got another can that only worked the first spray and then in order to get the blade finished I had to push the can down on the blade and let paint thinner leak out it was a pain in the ass I dont know why the cans didn't work. Then I finally finished the blade. phew...

When I got the blade.
