I have a problem. Do I have a problem? What to do about the non-problem...

Sooo I want to get a new Becker in the next couple weeks...
But I already can't decide which damn folder to bring with me everyday...
Now I won't be able to pick what to hack and chop with when my heart so desires, and even worse (or better :D) when I go camping or hiking I'll have to bring the whole crew!!!

Can't it just be socially acceptable to walk around like this?

Anyway I'm thinkin about getting the 16....I'm gonna get a sixteen very soon but I already blew a bunch on another Sebenza when I could have had a lot more Becker goodness....what was I thinking!?

Anyway this was more of a rant I suppose...maybe better suited in a snark thread. Maybe I'll settle for the micarta grips for the 2 and grab the sixteen in a couple of weeks...

I've been knife drunk for too long :cool:
 
If you have more then one Sebenza you can just sell one of them to buy 3-5 Beckers :D

a 16, a 24, a 4, a 5.... or just save up a little bit more and buy them all.
 
One question.....

WHERE'S YOUR NINE?!?!

Nice bunch of Beckers but really?
 
The nine is in attendance! That would be the one in the center on the caribiner!

What I am contemplating is selling my small plain jane and getting some new Beckers AND grips.... Or just wait till next payday!

And no not really I threw them on my belt like that for laughs and a pic.... Or did I? Hehe :D
 
I certainly enjoy the micarta grips I might have to dabble with some wood ones soon...I'm finding out micarta is my kinda material it's so grippy yet it's texture is perfect!
 
I don't see a problem with any of this. We all have our hobbies right? :)
Micarta is quite nice though. Love the stuff.
 
Since I've fallen so deep into knives I've decided early on that I would like to dabble in making them...it seems working with micarta and shaping some scales would be a good place to start since I have not a shred of equipment at all...baby steps. That's the grand master plan anyway for now I'm satisfied with the genius designs of Mr. Becker and the other fine knife makers to be found here.

A bk16 would fit nicely with its handle size, then I will have tried all three (although I've held a 16 @ Cabelas before it wasn't tempting enough to pay the mark up of $100 just to have it that day. It certainly was nice though...had I not been in the market for (yet another) EDC I most certainly would have grabbed it haha
 
You'll be happy with the 16.
Nice collection you've got going there!
 
That angle has everyone mistaking your 9 for a 5 .
But you must never think you have too many beckers, until you have one of each, then a second copy of each to strip and put wood on, then you begin to wonder if possible a 3rd set is in order for macarta scales.

And Then!!!!!!! Its a never-ending cycle.

Since you have a 2, 9, and 11 the 16 is the next logical progression. Then a 10 and a 7. Then a 4 and a 5. If you don't have a Mora then you should defiantly get one or two of those (I like the thinner companion models over the thicker HG/robust ones).

Oh it's a 9?! That angle did confuse me lol.
I digress, buy another 9 and put wood handles on that one!
 
While he has an 11. He can't not have a 14 / 24. That's just ludicrous.
