My Becker Necker just arrived!

The Necker looks like a great little fixed blade. Can someone post some pics of the Necker next to an open mini-grip or Native? I'm especially interested in the length of the handle, how it fits in the hand... :D
 
As you wish Sprokker.
These pics go some way to explain why I made such a fat handle.
All I had for comparison was my battered Spyderco Delica (complete with snapped tip):D

Hello guys, I was wondering what you all used to remove the coating from the blades, I saw it posted but never heard of it before, If you could tell me where to get it it would be much appriceated. I have a crewman that needs some help. Thanks.
 
Basically any sort of metal paint remover will work, just put the blade in a container (without the handle of course!) and cover with the stripper you will see it start to blister after about 10 mins and after 20 it will wash off easily. Watch your skin though and the vapour fumes should be avoided too.
 
Thank you for the info and by the way, you did a great job. I never would have guessed you had no power tools. Looks really nice.
 
Thanks Shotgunner, I think for my next project I'll get myself a cheap drill press with a sanding drum on it. It'll save me time and will make the drilling of the holes more accurate.
At first I wanted to use smaller bolts for the handle but I messed up the holes, so I changed to bigger bolt size.
I now like the way it looks with the big stainless bolts though.
Good luck with the Crewman and post some pics when your done.
Cheers.:thumbup:
