The 20 is just so cool and easy, What are those handles made from? (Black linen micarta?) I wish I had got 2!!

I was way off on that one! I don’t have pics at moment of mine, and I must have used it more than I thought because the coating is pretty worn. Once I got the 20, I just put away the 29! I know I’ve said this already but if the bk20 were regular production, it would be as iconic as the 9! I now have enough 9’s (5 at last count)to last several lifetimes but, having only one(along with Mr. Becker’s blessing) makes it more special! Once the snow clears I will resume thrashing the bk20!

I'd say use it if you have a use. If not, enjoy fondling it. Big knives are like that for me.... they just seldom ever get used, but that hasn't stopped me from buying them.
What's the worst case? You break it.... life does not end at that point.
