My First Becker: BK10 Crewman

[Guyon]

Congrats and welcome. I love the Crewman. In many ways, it's a scaled-down BK2, and I find it more useful because of the thinner blade.

I like the BK10, but minus the thumb ramp and finger guard shortened a little. I believe another beckerhead did that very thing and looked so much better IMHO

Welcome to the Becker forum and Bladeforums!!!

Grind that thumbramp after you strip it.

I sandblasted the grivory and they resulted in a pretty nice texture. Keeping the Micarta on this knife, but I will probably sandblast the grivory in the future to save some money.

Dang it, I really am hooked. Wanting a 9 and an 11 as soon as possible.

Hey, that was a really good idea, sandblasting those scales. Wish I'd thought of it . Actually, I mostly wish I had access to a cabinet for doing such things myself.

Glad it worked out. Now.....pics, or it didn't happen!
