I'm confused and don't know the history on the two, I see BK knives often advertised as Ka-Bar Becker BKxx

That's the first question, the second question is are the Ka-Bar Snody Administrator, Jarosz Rambler and Johnson Adventure decent neckers for the sub $15 price?

What's the opinions on the ZK Achelon skelton Zombie biohazard knife too, my kid might like this one, he love call of duty zombies, LOL
 
Ethan Becker designs his knives and Ka Bar makes them for him. There have been a few companies that produced Ethan's designs. I guess that's the simple way of saying it. Not to say that Ethan doesn't make any knives, he most certainly has. Also, not everything Ka bar produces under the Becker line were designed by Ethan.
 
That's clears it up quite a bit, thanks for the cliff notes. What is an example of something Ka-Bar produces under the Becker name/line that isn't designed by Ethan, out of curiosity?
 
The bk3, bk5, bk15, bk17, bk21, and bk29 are all Ethan's amazing handle on another persons blade design. The bk14/24 is Ethan's blade design on ESEE's handle.
 
Ethan owns Becker Knife and Tool. BK&T has a contract with KaBar to manufacture the knives that both agree on under the combined names. He dies collaborate with others like ESSE and Jerry Fisk and others to make the knives we know and love.
 
Moreover, Ethan designs some really useful knives and KaBar is a great knife manufacturer, a good company and a company that absolutely, positively stands behind their products and with their customers.
 
Ethan has licensed his handles to the BK12 for instance... The distinguished Mr Ritter designed the knife with weight system. The knife is made by Rowen.
