Junglas vs BK9 size comparison?

[trugracie]

I was at a local knife dealer today and held the BK9 for the first time.
Wow! that thing felt great in hand!!!
Does anybody have pictures of a BK9 and Junglas side by side?
I'd like to see the difference in length with and thickness.
Thanks in advance!

if no one posts try a search, I don't have either but will say the Junglas is an inch longer other then that they're about the same. the 9 is the obvious bowie, adn also you able to choke down on the handle and grab the ball on the becker for more chopability..

ka-bar's website isn't showing how thick the bk-9 is but when i put their spines against each other it's the same thickness as far as i can tell.

the bk-9 also fits perfectly in the junglas' sheath, which esee sells by itself for $65.

Had both and only have the BK-9 now. The problem was the big handle on the Junglas, I have large hands with short fingers and it felt like I was going to loose control of it when I was chopping. The Junglas has a great F&F and sheath, no kicking any ESEE product from me. The BK-9 fits my hand perfect and that's the reason I keep using it. I hope this helps.

Looking at these pictures makes me want to go out and snap up a Junglas. I'm sure I could slap a spyderco G-clip on that kydex sheath and carry it in some deep pocket pants. Alternately I could carry it with a Mercop shoulder harness. I just don't go many places where I could carry a knife that big ,in plain sight on a belt, and not get some anxious looks.
