I apologize if this has been done before but I could not find it in the search function. Maybe I missed it though.

Anyways, after seeing all of the pictures of Beckers, and the talk of rust etc., I was wondering what your most used/beat to hell Becker is? Post pictures if you can.
 
Mine would be my BK11. Have carried it pretty much exclusively for several months. I stripped mine and put a patina on it and have not had any rust issues at all. I try to be mindful to clean the blade after I use it but there have been times that I didn't. I put a little mineral oil on it every could of weeks. If you use moderate care you should not have a rust problem.

My BK-2. click on the links for pictures. i have been using the bk-2 in my cellar to split 2 or 3 pieces of wood a week for kindling all this winter.
every morning my father wakes up and starts a fire in the wood stove..so i figured i would help him out.

Ill shoot some pics of my deadbolt special BK2. I have opened more deadbolts with that poor blade....on its 5th set of grips :-)
 
I use my BK11 more than my BK9 but not as hard. Accordingly, I guess my BK9 is my most well used Becker...

BK-5

I can't recall if I bought in 1999 or 2000. I'm thinking lately it was '99 because I seem to remember during the Y2K hubbub wondering how well the BK-5 would perform as a scalping knife.

Not exactly beat to hell but certainly heavily used.

Do you want me to post them so that the pics show up and you don't have to click on anything?
Or you can, just put the links in these commands:

Mine is a toss up betwixt my only 2, my 11 gets EDCd but my 7 is the go to woodsplitter.

This BK2 has a new home now, but I certainly beat the hell out of it when I had it. :D
