Yes. In the Becker world, the handles don't change, at least on the big guys. My Camillus BK7 looks real good with Kabar micarta. And, if they don't fit exactly to your tastes, some sandpaper and a couple of cold ones, you can make a perfect fit.

Now my Cam BK7 and Kabar micarta was a perfect fit. My Kabar BK2 and Kabar micarta, the micarta was slightly, and I mean slightly oversized, mayb 1/32 or 1/64", didn't break out he micrometer. I liked it tha way, so I could sand down a perfect seamless fit. Either way, yes it will fit. Post pics though, I love seeing micarta on any Becker knife.

and if by aftermarket you mean non Camillus/KaBar third party stuff, there are a few vendors, and they are usually over on ePray, though some of the major Becker vendors sell their own. go forth and look. google is friend - deal spotting is right out.

if they say it fits a large Becker, it should fit all eras of large Beckers, since time began. the hole size and spacing really hasn't changed in 25-30 years. nice huh? mix and match, swap them around, whatever.

They worked ok for mine.

I have had good luck with Tomars Kabars.
