What's your favorite Becker knife you own?

My bk-17 is my favorite. I like the size, feel and shape of the knife often finding reasons to use it. I truly believe apples taste better when sliced with a Becker. The 4, 7, and 22 also sit in my collection, but the 17 is the one I always go for.
 
I happen to absolutely love my Bk2. I heard Ethan once say it was the perfect knife for when you need to field dress a Buick. It can really do anything. Short enough to do some finer work. Tough enough to chop and baton. A great size to scout carry. Man, I love that knife.
 
Oh - my 4 is something I really am enjoying, too! That's a cool, useful blade. Pretty specialized, or it might just be a favorite. Nothing beats the 16 for all around use, at least for me.
 
Tough call. I have a 5 and a 9, and they are so different that I cannot decide.

When camping they will both come along. The 5 for food chores and SD in the tent at night if ever needed. Doubt it, but good to have handy.

The 9 for wood chopping, firewood batoning and clearing work whenever needed.
 
The BK15 is easily my favorite. It was a toss up between a 9 and 4 fur a while, but now that I've gotten much more used to using an axe for chopping and splitting, they don't get as much use. The 15 is good for most of my needs in the woods...fishing, hunting, fire starting, and good prep.


 
I enjoy my bk2 very much. It is what got me into quality blades and steel. BUT. the 3 is good, also the 14. Tough to beat the 14+ ANY combo. Haha. Seriously though, bk2. That 5 though. If more people could just HOLD it....
 
The 11 is my favorite right now. Probably because I use it every day. I never go anywhere without it...if I can help it.
And I recently scored a sweet Camillus version with the saber grind...it's just purdy.

BK4 for sure. That's the if-I-can-only-have-one knife. BK16 is #2, you can do a ton with that as well.

#4: BK-9. It's not particularly well-balanced and it's not what I would call a serious cutter... but it ain't bad at all when you just need to whack the living hell out of pretty much anything... distant 4th in my book. (puts on fireproof Nomex suit and prepares to get lambasted...)

You are dead to me.
 
9 but my 4 is starting to get more time and I'm really liking it. I've not done any real camping in a while so the most 'woods' time I'm getting is just wood/kindling splitting for fires and general brush clean up. Both the 9 and 4 are champs at both those tasks.
 
I honestly couldn't choose one. It's like picking a favorite beer. There all good.:D If somebody put a gun to my head though to pick one my hand would be hovering over the 9 I think. But maybe that's cause they had a gun to my head.:D If had to live in the woods for a month or in apocalypse scenario it would be 9 but daily use the 24 the most. Oh and I have 4 BK2's and only one 9 so I don't know what that means either. Wouldn't really have any answer to which I like least either. The scenario would help me decide.
 
Right now my 15 is winning that fight.



I love my Saber 16 as well but man the 15 is really just becoming one of my all time favorite production knives.
