Lately I have been restoring a Gerber BMF and a MarkII (1986). The EK44 reminds me of the MarkII a little...and I like that knife a lot. Curious to feel what the weight of the EK44 would be and where weight is distributed on the blade/handle during use. Hard to spend the money on the EK44 when I could get another BK9 like I've been wanting...decisions, decisions...
I am not a own or carry a knife for fighting guy, but I have always had the same reaction to the original EK knives as well as really any well executed boot knife or dagger. I cant seem to help it, despite the fact that I never want to have to use a knife for that intent. The new KA-BAR ones look soooooo good.
This sums it up for me as well. No need for double edged knives, but this one is VERY appealing to me. I really waiting on the 5.![]()
saber ground 16 in s30vhow many times has that request been done? I'm quite happy with my BK, but of course I would buy one like that, no-brainer.
That, sir, is what is affectionately known as the Becker Brute (BK1)
Let me be the first to say "I want one", lol (that will be a common theme to following posts)

Bladite,
You read my mind. I was thinking of getting 8 and building a custom wood kitchen block. If they were stainless that would be perfection. Maybe you can use your pull with the boss to get a custom sprint run to celebrate the Fisk inspired design before they are discontinued. :thumbup:
Zathras can never have anything nice....
Lets finish this heifer.![]()
