[cbwoods67]

Thanks for the information sir.
I didn't know the blade length on the drop point was so short.

 

[tradewater]

I'm freaking out now.

 

[axesbold]

They be lookin' fine....

 

[1066vik]

now I know why i liked those handles so much - it's almost the same OAL as the dogbone - without the beak.

 

[BRL]

omg IFOM!!!

 

[Translash]

Gonna get one of these for sure!

 

[Lonewolf01]

Those look awesome! I know which Becker is going to be next for me.

 

[Bladite]

buy them all

 

[EagleScouter]

These are freakin' sweet. Can't wait for them to come out!

 

[ac700wildcat]

Hmmmmmm, I really like them all........looks like I'll have to get my hands on em all eventually. I think I want the bk16 first tho. It looks like it will be a heck of a hunting knife!!!

 

[Psyop]

freaking out!

 

[Stark Knives]

Nice! Any idea on pricing?

Erd

 

[NixKustoms]

hell yeah!!!!!

 

[9point9]

Nice. I'm gonna have to pick up a few of these.

 

[The Warrior]

Sweet. Can't wait. I like the looks of the Zytel myself.

 

[Flexxx]

Lookin good, those babys are gonna need some liners......Sweet

 

[Bladite]

Nice! Any idea on pricing?
Erd

yup

more than $1 and less than $99 i would expect.

more guessing: more than a BK11/14 and less than a BK2

which narrows it down pretty well, i think.

 

[The Warrior]

and less than a BK2

which narrows it down pretty well, i think.

I saw BK2's for $52 the other day.

 

[willworship]

I can't wait for these to be released! I'm holding out for the BK16...
