What folders are the Beckerheads carrying?

[bigghoss]

Today I got this in the mail!

ZT0350OR

Awesome sauce. I like the ZT0350 but I got a blem. I would like to get an orange one just because I'm tired of black. Every knife is black. Black black black black black black black. But I don't see myself paying full price for one.

One of the reasons why I jumped on it when I saw it; its not black! I figure its a little more sheeple friendly as people generally don't freek out over orange.

I so don't give a crap what those pansies think. I'm just bored of black.

Lately it has been my composite Leek:

Though the Cryo II has seen a lot of weekend duty.

I got a bright blue PM2 - because It's Not Black (and that M390 steel. Yum.)
Stuck out too much for EDC for me - got some black micarta scales for it.
To each his own, you know.
But my 940 is green, my Farmer and Leek are silver, the SwayBack Jack is a nice shade of brown, and my SaltI is quite yellow.

Hah! I EDC my BK2 because I feel the same way.

These accompanied the BK2 today

When I'm in my one of my suits, regardless if I'm at work or not, I have the Dragonfly attached to my belt. The PM2 is with me whenever I wear jeans or casual clothes. So it's mostly my dragonfly that gets to ride with me. I'd like to use my BK10 everday, but it's not very suit friendly I'm afraid.

Today I received my new little toy, and let me just say.....WOW!
They are NOT kidding when they say they are PROUD to OVERBUILD a knife.
I have to say there is not one thing I really can complain about this knife.
The lock up is phenomenal, no play one bit.
Action is smooth as crock butter.
This just screams quality and even just looking at it, pictures don't do it justice.
It is a LOT bigger than what a picture makes it look lol!

Look at that poor factory edge!
That'll change soon!

This thing is a tank.

Centered like a champ.

Made a nice little twist dongle out of 550.

Wait a minute......I've seen that shredded paper and work bench top before.....
Oh yeah it's my sharpening station.
What really surprised me was the S35V Steel.
It put an INSANE edge after only 320 grit it could shave hairs with 20 degrees.
Once I got it to 2500 it was push cutting all the way through a piece of paper at high angles.
Brought it up to 6000.
Look at that freaking polish.
I still got some thin paper feathers left on the blade in the picture lol.

Don't I make a great conscience?

Looks sweet! Congrats on the new steel!


Edit: ZT's are great, Becker content incoming!

Haha, I dislike the orange scales on any blade but the scales itself look good lol!
Can't wait to attempt my own micarta lol.

If it were actually the "Becker of folders" it would cost half as much as it does.....and come with a Grivory® scale. Oh - and have the name "Becker" or "BK&T" somewhere on it.

Folders which for some reason baffle me are twice as expensive really as a fixed blade.
However, I did get it for only 115 on the forums which is one hell of a deal, that's less than what I put into either my BK2 or BK9.

I'm mostly referring to the build quality and how great it feels.

The ZT 0550 is one of my favorites for sure!! I got the blackwashed version.

Guys, this ZT thread really belongs in General, despite the title. I know the OP has a target audience in mind, but the Becker content is negligible here.
Since Auraria is a Beckerhead, I'm moving this one to: What folders are the Beckerheads carrying?

I love the blade shape, definitely my favorite so far.

My small benchmade bone collector had been in my pocket since I got it

Lets see it Spikebot!!

I really like my large bone collector, awesome knife.
