Im not sure if anybody has posted a thread like this before or maybe nobody is as crazy as i am but I would like to know the names of your Beckers and maybe tell me a little bit about there personality.
My family:
Brutus bk9-he is pretty quiet most of the time but he is always up to a challange and a good time
Sassy bk2-she is a little fire cracker thus the name. Always has something to prove!
Jose bk14-one of my very bestest friends, always with me and always there when I need him

Am I crazy?
 
I'm gonna go with yes you are crazy. However not cause you name your knives. I don't name my knives per se, however I do name my cars.
 
Are there men in white coats outside your door? Then I wouldn't worry about it ;)
 
I have never really named any of my knives before, but the large Beckers have such individual personalities, that I can't help it.

Well, My Bk-5 is about to become a Hot Blonde. Shes going to get stripped(sounds kinky) and have some Golden Yellow Exhibition Curly Myrtlewood scales. So she'll be called Marilyn.

My BK-9 reminds me of a German Panzer tank ,so I call it "Das Becker".

My BK-7 is known as "Gunny" (HOOHRAH-!!).

My BK2 is known as the T.S.O.B.

Well, Mr. Becker has his names for them-(Campanion, Combat Bowie, Magnum Camp knife etc..) and I have mine.;)

I've never had any of mine speak to me, though....

Yet.:D

Do any of them have faces that look like this?

I guess my BK7 would be called 'clunky' - that's what my wife called it the first time she held it (comparing it to my Buck 119).

The little BK13 I gave my son would be called 'weenie' - it's pretty handy for getting Vienna Sausages out of the can. :)

No name for my BK11 yet . . .

I name fricking everything, and have not used a man's name yet.
Examples- I named my calculator Becky, my BK7 is Beth, and my 11 is Mary Jane.
