Hi folks,
I'm a big fan of the Becker line, and I've been thinking about getting a BK11 and making handle slabs (G10, wood, or micarta) for it for some time now. It's great as-is, but I like tinkering.
I'm wondering if any of you BK11 owners out there could answer a few questions for me:
1. What is the diameter of the circular holes on the BK11 handle? I need to know if I have appropriately-sized rivets on hand.
2. How deep does the knife sit in the sheath? If I made handle slabs that extended to the first circular hole on the blade, would it still fit in the sheath, or would I have to make it a new one?
Thanks for the help,
Mike
