I know there’s a similar thread going about Becker mods, but I thought it would be fun if we had a dedicated thread to show the process of how our beloved Beckers came to be. I’ve never really serious modded a knife before receiving my BK7, and I’m proud of my efforts. These are the fruits of my labor:

As from Kabar

De-ramped

https://flic.kr/p/2n22C8j
Stripped

Final product: stripped and de-ramped. Scales are dark walnut by TommytheWho. Sheath by Jose’s leather. My goal was to make a Becker customized exactly to liking for under $175. Mission accomplished! I’m a huge fan of no nonsense and traditional Bowies that you would find on a 19th century Cowboy, Trapper or Mountain Man. I feel that my BK7 fits that to a T. I love to see how everyone else’s personalized Beckers came to be!

BK2 Mod - Clipped, and Stripped, and Striped, Oh My! (Photo Heavy)

Finished my BK2 mod. After I did a mock up of a clipped BK2, I wanted to make it a reality, so, I did. I sent the blade out to have the clip done. Beyond my capabilities, especially with limited tools. I did do some grinding on it, because it was more of a straight swedge when I got it. I used...

Mild BK2 Mod

As the title states, I did a mild mod to my Cam 2. Have had it done for quite some time now, just getting around to posting. This is what it looked like when I got it. As you can see, mildly used: I purchased it, because I wanted a solid tang 2: Starting the mod. All the...

I guess if the shoulder got a bump back the bk1 would be fine. I've never had the opportunity to use a bk1 with thinned out primary.

Solid! Great job!
 
That is a David Brown David Brown kydex sheath with a large tek lok attachment system. Amazing quality sheath. Look up Buy Brown on google, his page is the first that comes up.

Thanks for the info. I have a few of his sheaths just not one for a Busse TGLB. I should have him make one cause I really like how that one looks.
