Why do you want to be a Beckerhead?

[CDKJudoka]

Okay, I didn't see one of these yet, so, what the hell, I will start.

Aside from the fact that I want the killer T-Shirts that 710 is offering for BHs, this is one of the first subforums I have been to that you see something more close knit than just saying that you have a number. Since I ordered my first Becker I started hanging out here more than anywhere else because I don't see an elitist attitude that you could see elsewhere. I want to be a BeckerHead, because like surfing, music, and knife collecting, it's a way of life. I can't see a reason for me to want to purchase another kind of knife, aside from a Becker.

Now, let's see why you want to become or why you became a Beckerhead. Sound off!

While I meet the requirements for "admission", I decided to take the lone wolf route; call me The Few, the Proud, the Numberless. Besides, do you have any idea how many Beckerheads have been banned...that's like being kicked out of prison.

I became a BeckerHead because i fell in love with the BK10. It was said there will be no more---ever !!! So, then, lo & behold, someone found a box in the corner of a building somewhere that had 181 or so BK10 blanks. Toooj & Ethan Becker got involved & decided to finish them. My grail knife would be made once again !!! BUT, it would only be available to certified boneified BeckerHeads who held a BeckerHead #. So, i got mine & got a BK10LE with all the bells & whistles !!!!

Thats my story. I am hoping for part II someday---if/when they re-release the BK6 Patrol Machete. I know i'm not alone on that !!!

HEY, i work in a prison.

This is pretty much where I'm at. I think I qualify but, meh.

I wanted to become a Beckerhead because I liked the name "Beckerhead".
Now I been called a name that sounds very similar to "Beckerhead" from time to time, but that didn't carry the same prestige as Beckerhead.
In fact it was down right offensive, but that's another story.

Not to mention, if I ever found myself in a true "do or die" survival experience, just having the title "Beckerhead" will greatly increase my percentage of survival.
While I have never taken any survival classes, or lessons to make me an expert survivalist, I have made lots of posts in the Becker forum along with survival forums on the internet, so I figure it's the same thing.:thumbup:

So now I'm part of a prestigious group of grown men and women who are proud to carry the title of Beckerhead, and as soon as I buy a BK9, I can die a happy man.

You don't have to be a beckerhead, just get the BK9. If you get lost, take out the BK9 and say: "OK wilderness, we can do this the easy way, or the fun and easy way."

Why go all medieval when you can reap the benefits of living in the 21st century....whip out the 'ol GPS, and using your satellite phone, just call for help and give out your coordinates; no cuchillo needed.:applause:

I didn't want to be a Beckerhead...........

I was forced into it.

Blackmail is an ugly business, ya'll. Mind you steer clear of it.

You know all those Chuck Norris facts on the interwebs? If you become a Beckerhead, they are all true. About you.

Ever since i was a kid i've allways been into knives, but when i got a becker in my hands i was really "at home".
It's so much more than a knife. Just the feel of it screams quality, the esthetics are a chapter of its own.

I just love becker knives and eventually having a BH# of my own will feel like my "offical tribute" to these great tools and the genious of their design.

I just wanted in on all the great initiation rituals everyone was talking about..

 

[JV3]

i display my beckerhead # proudly to spread the word to people who don't know becker knives exist - good steel, good ergonomics and good warranty for an affordable price.

Shhhhh....keep to the code.

I hear they're fabulous!

 

[Tdhurl1103]

I just did it because it seemed like a fun thing to do for the forum.

Oh sure, great initiation rituals....if you call having to drop your drawers and pick up a grape off of a 36" x 36" 36" block of ice covered in pubic hairs with your butt cheeks, and run 20 yards to another same sized block of ice and deposit it, and IF you drop the grape before you get to the other block of ice, you have to eat it, "great", then have at it. I like my grapes sans pelos.:barf:
