The Bundok deal were my first Beckers, and I came to this forum to brag a bit. I was well received, but also warned that these most likely wouldn't be my last Beckers. Well, everyone who said that was 100% correct. I just picked up a BK22 Companion.
This thing is a tank. It feels like I can take on just about anything with it. I have had an RC5 since the first run, and I like the BK2 more. It just feels much better in my hand. I hate to keep comparing Beckers to ESEE, or RAT (I've had them so long), knives. But they are the only hard use, built to take out and just use knives, I've owned. They both just feel like they are ready to take on anything and feel as if there is nothing you can't ask them to do that they can't handle. To me, both companies' knives aren't for show, they're for work.
I've also received TKC G10 handles for my RC knives, and I can tell you now, I have no intention of changing the handles on my Beckers. The TKC handles made a world of difference on my RCs (the 3 and 4) but after getting them, I can truly see the benefits of the factory handles on Beckers.
I couldn't be happier with my purchases, and know for a fact that I will be getting a 9 and 21 at some point, but I am going to purchase a sheath for the 5 (quickly becoming my favorite) and the 2 first. I'm most likely ordering the sheat for the 5 from Patriot Leather (a dangler), and the 2 sheath from 710 Customs (a dangler/scout carry hybrid).
