I was over at BCUSA where someone posted asking for a review on the BK2, before I could even chime in and educate him someone posted this up.

So, who was it? I'm betting he is here.

Hahahahahaha, I remember reading that. I laughed and laughed and laughed. If memory serves it wasn't one of us here, but rather a regular from over there that has seen the effects such questions can elicit from our ilk.
 
Yeah, that was hilarious. I don't believe the poster meant any ill will. I didn't take it that way, at least.
 
The BK2 is a great knife, a fantastic knife, and a wonderful knife. It is a definite contender in the "one knife to do it all" category, but at the end of the day, like any knife fitting that description, it does everything well, nothing great (except baton). Can you use it for everything? Most definitely, but that doesn't mean you would want to. I think a lot of people start off with it because it does have a reassuring heft to it that means you can screw up during your learning curve and not hurt it, but eventually you are going to go a different direction once the amount of knowledge and skill under your belt increases. I went smaller, and if need be will pair it with a larger knife (BK9) to do the stuff it can't. I think a lot of people go that direction when they've got more time behind them and experience to know what they are going to need one for. I still love mine, and it lives in the car now for those times that I might be forced to use one knife and one knife only, but as far as what goes on the belt or in my pack, the BK16 is the one for me.

Very well put sir! Couldn't have said it better myself.
 
I would have to agree with you derek even with the risk of upsetting my 2 by looking at another knife. I've been leaning the way of the 16 for quite a while, but recently have been leaning pretty hard towards a new 10 instead. With the he never ending quandary over which knife to get next.
 
I agree with you also Derek, but I settled on the 15 though, and pair it with either a 9, or a tomahawk. I still grab my 2 on occassion though, its a fun blade.
 
Derek, my 2 also lives the life of mobility. It stays in the truck. And for around the backyard, I borrow my daughter's 16. Just used it yesterday to build a fire in the fire pit. I'm thinking another tweener is in order for me, but we will see. I have to get another 14 and 24 before I get anything else ;)
 
I read that post and cracked up ! Screen ripped the image too tis pretty funny - dont have a 2 yet but it's on my list and the next one is the 16 for sure!
 
I have camped with the guy that posted it. He is a good guy and a BKT fan. I am sure there was no ill will at all. I thought it was a cool pic, I am a Sean Beane (sp) fan.
