Simple. I have a thread showing the old Becker necker doing its thing. With over a 1000 views, im proud of it, and it getting the word out. So why not give one away. So here's the rules:

1. Check out the thread and post any comments you have about its awesomeness to keep spreading the word
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=888159

2. Anyone can play (not just beckerheads since we want some new blood)

3. Post up a short story/pic/ video as to why you NEED a bk11. Any reason at all, doesn't matter, fiction or non fiction

(I.e. there's a gang of toolboxes from the wrong side of the tracks, wreaking havoc in your suburban neighborhood)

4. Best entry wins (picked by a non BF member friend of mine, so inside jokes are welcome but wont help your chances)

5. The prize is a brand new Becker bk11, equipped with micarta scales, and the Kabar tdi belt clip (Yeh awesome right?)

6. Contest will run for one week from friday (so oct 14th the winner will be picked)

7. One entry per person, and please no chatting I wanna keep it as clean as possible for my friend
EDIT: who am I kidding chat away...

Not affiliated with Kabar, Becker knife and tool, beckerheads, BladeForums, or anyone else. I take all responsibility so I make the rules. World wide shipping but once it leaves my possession, I am no longer liable for it and you must be of legal age to own a knife and live in a place where doing so isn't illegal.


Have fun!

Awesome clich! I appreciate the chance to win one of these babies!

I NEED one of these because all of the knives that I own are fairly cheap knives. They have meaning for me because my brother gave them to me but the truth of the matter is that if i were in a survival situation these knives wouldn't last a week under the kind of use I would have to put them through. All of the knives I own are folders. The CRKT are pretty decent blades but I don't have a fixed blade knife at all for serious outdoor use. This knife, a brand new Becker BK11 equipped with micarta scales, and the Kabar tdi belt clip, could literally save my life. :D I have included a pic of all of my knives for your amusement and/or pleasure.

From top to bottom:
1. CRKT Hissatsu Folder - pretty heavy and too big to fit in my pocket
2. Cheap no name knife I bought at a gas station
3. Smith and Wesson - given to me by my uncle years ago. I use it to cut wire and open boxes ( and my hand once)
4. CRKT Mirage - I love the warncliffe blade. i use this a lot
5. CASE Doctor's Knife - much used but I love it and still use it - still sharp too

That pic alone should be reason enough to be a valid entry. lol Thanks for the chance and the generosity.
 
As a poor college student, and a cheap bastard, I would LOVE to win a free BK11!
But on top of the previously mentioned...

My house honestly has no bottle openers...
I, for the life of me, do not know why we can't pickup a sub $1 piece of equipment! It's like the stars are aligning to keep me from getting a crappy bottle opener, just so I can have a shot at getting a BK11!

As for my knife collection, I also have no Becker knives, and have seen what the BK11 can do! The only full tang knife that I own happens to be a crappy eBay under $10 piece of work, and it's not that great...


Thanks for the chance to win!
 
I need a Becker because I just plain dont have one! I this this sub forum is kickass and very helpful. Its nothing but give-aways and positive knifetude! I would love to win one and be a part of you community. Ill cherish it and make it sexy with maybe a nice patina and ill post tons of pics of it doin all sorts of awesome stuff. And honestly, I really need a knife im not scared to beat on!

Here is a picture of a pipe I carved by hand. If i win ill make one using the Becker. Thats right.

Thanks dude!
 
Just started with my Becker collecting hobby..... Headed to the mountains this weekend..... Would be great to have a nicely outfitted BK11........ To help with the cooking chores...... Starting the fire...... Cutting up the assorted flesh for the carnivore feast... cutting up the veggies...( my wife is an omnivore even when camping)..... And definitely opening my selection of imports...... there ain't nothing like roughing it........ I would keep a great looking Becker necker like this with me all the time.....a constant companion. That is why everyone ... especially me....... Needs one!
 
I already have 2 BK11's, so I will pass on entering - but cool giveaway. Everybody needs an 11 and a 14 and a 2 and...
 
i need an 11 because i gave away my 13 in my first giveaway so now i need a new small knife...
 
I need a BK11 because my BK2 needs a little brother to play with, you know how boring it is when you are the only child, then along comes a little brother to play with and you are so happy. My BK2 companion with a companion would be very happy!

I need one cause I lost the key to my toolbox and I think my BK-11 is in there.
 
The reason I need a BK11....

Well I have never owned one and being a becker freak I think I should.
I can see into the future also, if you send me that blade it will eventually save your life in the long run, I see us meeting at a special place in the mountains right after you get
robbed and all your gear is taken (PACK WITH YOUR KNIVES) you tell me what happen and that your being chased by crazy people who not only took your gear but they also want to
rape and kill you, I just happen to have a nice BK11 on me with micarta that I got from a awesome guy, they (the crazy People catch up to you) they see me and want some also
but I whip out the BK11 and they run like little girls....

We then catch them, you take back your gear and we cut off there legs and leave them to crawl around....brutal yes but thats just what the future happens to hold for us.

:D
 

After a lab experiment gone horribly wrong, our moon base became overrun by monsters. Armed only with my sidearm, I made for the exit.


Along the way, I encountered some zombies. I tried to sneak past unnoticed, but to no avail. The zombies' instinct to feed drew them towards their next meal: me. I unloaded round after round into them until they fell. Suffering only minor injury, I continued navigating through the rooms and corridors, working my way towards escape.


At long last, the exit is in sight. But out of nowhere, two more zombies jump out. I check my sidearm and spare clips, but alas, they are all empty. I turn to backtrack to find more ammo, but the growls of a dozen more zombies fill the corridor behind me. I have no choice left but to engage in hand-to-hand combat and make for the exit.


After a short but brutal melee with the zombies, they fall. I make for the exit once again, but this time, an alien imp cuts off my escape route. Exhausted and injured, but with no other alternative, I take a swing at the imp.


Fists alone weren't enough to break through the monster's armor-like exoskeleton. In the end, the imp mauled me to death. If I'd only had something like, oh, say, a BK11, I might have had a fighting chance at survival.

So, that's why I need the BK11 -- to be prepared for the zombie apocalypse, inter-dimensional alien invasion, or my next camping trip... whichever comes first.

In all seriousness, though, I've been looking at adding a fixed blade to my knife selection. I have no fixed blade knives other than my kitchen knives. For outdoor excursions, I've made do with some of my larger folders thus far. But even nice folders can't serve some of the roles of a fixed blade. My search for a high quality, aggressively priced (for my limited knife budget), and tough fixed blade working knives led me to look at BKT's offerings. After seeing some of the brutal reviews of the BK2 and BK11 here and their respective price points, I'm pretty much convinced my first fixed blade needs to be a Becker.

This contest could not come at a more opportune time, I could use a Necker style knife in the worst way for you see sir I have no waist!

It all started three long years ago when there was a horrible accident at the Cheese Danish factory. One day while on duty (I was the BQI, buttery quality inspector) there was a rapid melt down in one of the butter tanks. The primary retention valve had failed and pressure was building to an explosive level!

Now we were prepared to release the pressure through the through the auxiliary valve however we found there was a leak in the gasket of the entry cap. As we all know you can’t release pressure through a retention valve when the cap isn’t airtight.

Standing on the unit I knew there was only one thing I could do. I had to remove the cap and insert myself into the entry hole to plug it tight with my body. I slid in to my rib cage before the hole was plugged tight. I felt the pressure build on my lower extremities and the butter push its way up, coating my body. My lungs couldn’t expand and I felt I would suffocate when they finally opened the auxiliary valve releasing the dangerous pressure and avoiding disaster.

When the all clear was given the emergency crew arrived to remove me from the tank opening, but when they pulled I was stuck fast. They had to retrieve the angle grinder to cut through the rim and get me free. To my horror when I immerged by body was no longer shaped like that of a normal man. Instead it was completely straight from armpit to feet.

The butter had infused itself into my mitochondrial altering my physiological makeup!

Alas since that day I have not been properly able to wear a belt knife as I can wear no belt…

With no waist to speak of, I can not wear a belt or even pants. So not only can I not carry a belt knife, but I have to wear an old baseball sock just to cover my wanker!

You can only begin to imagine the torment I endure daily, walking around shaped like a brick. I am always accosted by general bystanders and forced to fight to protect myself from those who would remove my sock which is the only barrier between me and the outside world. You have no clue how difficult it is to throw round house kicks when your shaped like a cinder block. And on top of that I am in a constant battle with stray dogs and cats trying to lick me as I still sweat butter to this day.

So you see this Neck Knife would in fact be a life saver!

With my lack of waist a dependable blade that I can hang around my neck for easy access would help me fend off the sock grabbers and butter lickers that hound me daily, and would make my life just a little easier.
 
I need a BK11 because back in 2010, I had to sale all of my BK's . (6ea. BK1's,2ea.BK2's,BK3,BK4,BK6,3ea.BK7's and a BK9 & BK10) along with some semi Custom NWA knives (10ea.) to pay for the remodel of my house being flooded. I since purchased a BK1 and a Kabar BK2 within the last month and looking to add more :D
True story ..no BS , Thanks for the Chance !!!!
