just wanted to get your thoughts on which becker is the most tactical. my two cents are the magnum camp.

also by "tactical" i mean a blade that you would mostly find on LE or military tac vest, or some other similar config.

bk7. combat utility. althought depends on what you mean by tactical. Like mall ninja zombie killing stuff or serviceman kinda stuff. nevermind id pick bk7 for both
 
I (Soldier) carried a BK7 or BK2 when I was in Iraq. Murph (Marine) carried a BK4 Machax when he went at the start of the suck.
 
I second the BK7..... light weight but able to handle most jobs that someone in a "tactical" position would encounter..... Great knife.....
 
Had I known about Beckers (or had they even been available) in 1989 I would have taken a BK-7 or BK-10 on my 'round the Persian Gulf tour instead of a Randall Model 14. I consider the BK-7 to be the classic re-interpretation of the USMC combat knife. You can pay more (waaaay more), but where the rubber meets the road, or more precisely where your rucksack hits the sand, the BK-7 is one of the best blades available. At any price.
 
If I were in the forces I'd take my 2. I'd want a knife that will be there when I need it. Though a 7 could be a close 2nd.
 
Really, you can't go wrong with either the 2 or the 7. If you do a lot of prying with your knife, the 2 is the one for you.
 
my vote would be 7 also about the right fighting style and size. but utility type bk2
 
My extensive experience (in reading BF threads about soldiers and knives) leads me to believe that almost nobody fights with blades but almost everyone seems to care about weight and opening MREs. Therefore the BK14 seems to be the most appropriate.

I will respectively disagree sir, the BK11 outweighs the 14 on the 'tacticool' scale by a long margin:D
 
Probably true! I was thinking that often LE or military are wearing gloves, and the little extra handle on the 14 would be helpful.
 
All of them if they still have the black coating on them, none if the coating has been removed. Your not gonna find a bunch of cops who carry a large fixed blade on them, a few might carry a small fixed blade but mostly it's folders.
 
The older Cammilus made BK9. Not sure if it's the most "tactical", but when I think of a becker knife to fill that type of role it would be my first choice.
