What becker does the best feathersticks?

[ridgebuggy]

I already have a bk9 and in the process of getting a bk2 for slightly smaller jobs but I think the thickness of the bk2 would not be very good for feathersticks and smaller jobs.I like beckers a lot and was wanting one for each job to round out my collection.

Im not totally positive, but my guess would be a knife like the Eskabar or Necker.

Remora or the 11/14 (blade is the same on those two) if we are going by stock blade geometry alone. The 5 might be up there. When you factor in skill though, the numbers can change drastically.

Derek is right on about the 5. It's a thin slicing mo-sheen.
Also... Ritter/Becker Perseverance. Thinner stock and oh so sharp from Rowen.
And the smaller knives like the 11 or 14.
Soon.... Tweeners.

The BK7 does a damn good job also...

I'm thinking the one that's has had the edge thinned out.

BK3 serrations don't do bad.

 

[TwinStick]

Any one that is plenty sharp, but thin blades usually do better for this task. As you can see though, a properly sharpened BK2 can hold its own.

I'm thinking the one that's has had the edge thinned out.

I'm sayin the one being used by the most experienced fuzz stick maker.
