Thanks for the heads up. It will be a safe queen for me. The MOLLE compatible "desert tan" Cordura sheath with multiple carry and utility pocket look cool to me.:thumbup:

this will not be a safe queen. i'll charge everyone at the beckerhead/esee camp out 3 weeks from now $20 each to handle, $50 to use :eek::D
 
My wife told me i had the couch. I have a love seat and my daughters princess bed though. Becker black and disney pink will be a good fit lol.
 
There's no safe queen coming to my door. I'm going to strip this thing and use it like it's your knife. :D

Thanks buddy. I've slept in much worst places than a princess bed.

"gotta spend money to make money honey" good stuff man

Machete thingy sounds like my girlfriend we were at Dicks and she pointed to a Gerber Machete and said hey look they have the Machax thing you have wanted I just turned and laughed, She didn't think it was as funny.
 
Gahh! Almost went to order an 11, then I saw this! Would it even be worth ordering one of these now versus waiting for a production model and more money? I don't want something I wont use, and it is $59 more than I was gonna pay for my 11, so it's a huge investment by comparison. Does Mr. Becker's signature add any resale value to it? And does the fact that it's laser etched in mean that it will always be there, even if stripped, or is it etched into the coating?

Stop asking questions--just do it, so the rest of us who impulse bought won't second guess ourselves. Dooooooo iiiiiit.

Worth ordering? Worth ordering!?!?! A knife is a tool not an investment, stocks are an investment. Or gold, lots of gold.

Buy it, use it. Don't worry about the re-sale because you will likely never want to. 11's will be available tomorrow. These probably won't. Your call.
 
Machaxe a month late, tweeners a month early. The universe is apparently trying to balance things out.
 
anyone else notice the description says flat ground? i actually prefer the saber grind (as pictured) as opposed to the ffg for this knife anyway.

With my current state of employment and income (broke, with no income until summer) it is an investment, I won't sell it unless it will have enough resale value to buy 2 more tweeners, production model versions obviously. And on top of all that, $93 is about what I have left from my last paycheck (december 2011), so I can't go crazy with it, and unless I can strip it without losing the signature, I need to get a new sheath for it, I don't like black blade with a tan sheath.

In short I can't afford to impulse buy.

Says flat, but not full flat. Flat, as opposed to hollow, would be my guess.
 
I'm a little peeved they didn't offer the proto run to the BH's first though since there are only 200ish of each and then the leftovers go to the rank and file. Ruuuuuuudeness.
 
I'm guessing this may be related to my post about E appearing on their show. Cool though!
