Proto 16s, Queen or User?

[RogueBowie]

Are you going to lock yours up for resale/personal collection or beat it like it kissed your wife?

 

[thrillbilly]

dunno yet, i'm waiting to get it ''in hand''. If I like it, and the etching isnt too bad, Im gonna keep it...and if I keep it im gonna use it as hard as I would any knife, and I'll mod it if I feel the need or desire. If for some reason it doesn't ''click'' for me I'll keep it pristine and resell it.

 

[Nsvens89]

It's gunna be a user for sure!

 

[Flexxx]

Gonna use it....

 

[FAL'ER]

Not gonna use them. They must be saved to pay for my kids college.

 

[Psyop]

Gonna use it....

Thought we had a deal!

 

[Liveitloud]

Going to try to not use it. Mileage may vary.

 

[rivertamer]

Gonna strip it.... After making sure the signature stays...... Etchant solution for sure..... Then use it with pride.... Lol

 

[clich]

im not sure yet. gotta see how it feels and looks. it may stay pristine but ill fondle it until they are actually released, or maybe it will be a user, i dunno

 

[DerekH]

User. This will be the knife I carry whilst doing my Scout stuff so I can show them they don't need the biggest knife ever to do everything they need to do.

 

[NixKustoms]

Yes. .

 

[s7brad]

No 16 here, maybe a 17, no safe queens in my house! Probably end up waiting on the regular production though, my lovely wife has a Condor Boomslang on the way for me.

 

[Skystorm]

Your missing the 'both' option. Some to beat on, some to play with, some to save for a rainy day.

 

[oXide]

I'm gonna (ab)use it, after I make Mr. Becker's signature more than permanent.

 

[clich]

you guys use your knives?

 

[Pa_Slasher]

Going to use the production ones for sure but these little pre beauty's will get touched and played with only!

 

[Greybush]

Going to keep this one NIB for now. I figure I can keep from using it for a month when the production models show up.

User. These things wont be collectors items. I'll get a ffg one too to test and compare.

You don't think they won't at least gain 50% in value? There's only 250 of them and there will only ever be and it's in a different grind than the regular ones will be. It depends on the success of this knife, but we could be talking the new crown jewel of the Becker line. I think at least other Becker Heads who didn't jump on these while they're out will maybe want one later on.

 

[CowboyStyle]

Will be stripped and used.
