Welcome to our corner of the asylum! You just started yourself into a very addictive hobby. :D Keep up the good work.
 
Yep the other is a BK2. I haven't decided on the patina for the BK2, it looks pretty good just stripped. I have some scales on order to finish them off (for now). Its funny, I have had these Beckers for a while now but it wasn't until I found this forum that I found out about their true potential. HaHa I am definitely hooked.
