Longer BK2

[The Warrior]

I think a BK2 a little longer, in 3/16" would be sick, and sell like hotcakes.

Stock:



Lengthened. BK2L (Long):




EDIT: Longer yet:



Animation showing the difference of the first two:

id buy one... but that might hurt the bk12 sales.

I don't think it would at all.

I like it. What length are you thinking of? 6"? 6-1/2"? Beckers need more drop points.

 

[TP9]

I'd say 7"-8" and I'll take two.

In that area, yup. A 7" wouldn't be such a bad thing either. I agree about more drop points.

The Campanion Extended. I like a longer drop point.

A BK2 with a 6.5" blade .20 thick would be very nice, a good all-around camp knife.
I bet a BK2 in this size range would be a good seller.
It would run the chance of being my favorite Becker knife as I really like knives this size.

Me too, hence why I just ordered a BK12. If this were in existence, it would have been this one. I may do a rendering later a little longer yet.

I made a BK2L for myself. I couldn't buy one so I made it. 1095 steel 1" longer then my bk2

She's a beaut, she is.

Added a third to the OP.

 

[bladesmith3]

it is the same stock as the BK2 1/4" chops better then the normal BK2 IMHO but I made it. lol

I think it would look good with a choil or maybe even a riccaso groove just sayin

Scratch the riccaso groove that would look weird

This is the first rendering I did on BF:

EDIT: Holy crap, this was my 18,000th post. I need to get a life.

I likey..... looks sexy


Have you ever done one with a choil instead?

 

[bladesmith3]

it does have a small choil for sharpening. in the first pic I lined up the plunge line so the blade length difference is shown.
even though the handle looks smaller then the bk2 it is actually a bigger grip as shown in the second pic.
I had originally shaped it to fit a stock bk grip but thought twice about making a copy. so I shaped it to my hand. the one I made has a blade an inch longer and a larger hand pocket but the OAL is only 1/2" longer. feels great in the hand.
as for a large choil I did not like the large choil on my eese 6

They look an awful lot like schrade knives https://taylorbrandsllc.com/collect...chrade-frontier-full-tang-fixed-blade-knife-2

Wonder if there would be a problem in terms of infringement stuff


I'd buy 1 or 2 heck I need a backup to my backup
