Post your Becker knives pics here

I stippled mine then hit it with 80 or 120 grit to pull the ensuing smoothness off of the material between the dips. But, mine weren't as symmetrical and had a touch more spacing between.

No Sirs, they were all from Ka-bar/Olean runs. The BK7 came with BK13. Got each one less than $75.
I got the BK9 from LAPG and sent it back- i didn't like the powdercoat and laser etching. I'm thinking of getting something else.😎

Got 'em from Eway. I have to misspell one letter. Ok, got the Bk7 without box but all of them are in brand new condition. I bought these for stripping but now having second thoughts because the coating were way smoother than i expected.

Were they sold by an individual or a merchant?

They were sold by non-merchants I assume, based from the assortment of other items their selling.
99% of all sellers with thousands of feedbacks are merchants and usually with multiple same items on auction. If you are hunting for BKs with roll-stamped markings, start with the "used condition" in the search menu. Examine the images and you can pretty much ID it from there. You won't need luck to find an unused knives posted as used, they are from honest 1st owner individuals who cares about their +feedbacks. If you are more patient, you can check each item in the "new" category and be on the look-out for non-generic photos in the new items. Some individuals put their same queens in the "new condition" category. Many merchants will just post stock photos and they are not aware of markings and all their BKs are laser etched newly stocked and will not be the same item pictured in their post. I hope this helps and may you not be the next person to outbid me.😉

That's why I asked cause a lot use stock photos that show a stamped Becker but when asked they're clueless about new laser etched and older stamped models

Who did make the sheath if you don't mind me asking or did I miss it in another post? Very classy work, may be interested in one myself.

My new BK2 with enhanced scales and new sheath I bought from the maker on ebay. The sheath is not "tactical" but I like it, It holds the knife firmly until you're ready to use it with just a slight pull. Nice thick leather and very well made. Exactly what I had in mind

The eBay seller "alscraft" His name is A (Al?) Thomas. Its a one of a kind but he has other ones listed with different tooling. I chose this one because it had a 2" belt loop, others had smaller loops.

There ya go

Not trying to play mod, because I'm certainly not one, but that seller isn't a paid member here, and you can't link if they're not.
 
My current family



and my newest addition to the family (The 710 sheath)

 
Just got a couple of new to me bk2 sheaths. These suckers are stout! Very snug with a nice snap when inserted. Only bad thing is, I didn't look closely and the dangler is a lefty. I gotta figure out how to flip it around without taking it apart. Looks to be very thin and flat rivets on the inside and peened outside.


I already have 2 bk2s so I fixed up the one that came with these and sold it to a work buddy who took it out this weekend and fell in love with it. His first Becker. First time I tried jerk rub for a patina and it came out real nice after several coats...

Got some micarta scales coming in a few days. I'm going to strip the roll stamped 2 and jerk it lol. It'll go real nice in the scout sheath.I'll be sure to give y'all a peek!
 
Those scales look absolutely perfect on that 15.....................like they were always meant to be on a BK15.

Did you make them? If not, are scales available for other models/sizes?
