Well, the Becker is a completely different type of knife than the other two. In factory form it is not much of a cutter at all unless reprofiled. Very heavy for a knife of it's size and bulky with that really wide cord blade. The other two are pretty close size wise but the Tak is 3/16 blade stock vs. 1/8 of the Rat-3. What are you planning on doing with the knife you buy and what kind of budget are you dealing with? A more educated suggestion could then be made.
