My second becker purchase from Adventure gear and my third one overall (I also own a bk2 and bk9). This knife is much smaller than my other two but has the same high quality and awesome design. Went with this over the BK16 and am happy with this choices it fits roles that my others were too large to fill. Love becker and adventure gear.ca, always shipped fast with excellent service

This knife has it all in my opinion. I bought it as my main back country fixed blade and after pretty extensive use, it has far surpassed my expectations. I'll carry it for YEARS to come.

Out of the box it was sharp but not quite hair splitting. A couple of passes on the strop fixed that. The 1095 can hold an edge extremely well. Ka-bar also heat treats their blades really well, so they come out really tough! On top of that, it's made in the US! The handle is incredibly ergonomic (I wear a large glove) and I have no issues getting a full purchase on the blade. Virtually NO hot spots where your hand tires out or gets sore with heavy use. The powder coating has stood up really well to substantial abuse. After buttoning A LOT fire wood on trip, it admittedly has worn down a bit, but still maintains a funtional layer of protection on the blade. The jimping on the spine is great for extra control for fine motor tasks.

The sheath: Holds the knife perfectly with a large, but stiff belt loop that is extremely versatile and comfortable on your side. It can be mounted for right AND left side carry. The single button clasp is sturdy, not opening unless you want it to.  It takes a fair bit of force to remove from the sheath (which I personally prefer). It has accessories slots for staps, which aren't my cup of tea, but im sure would function well.

The design speaks for it self. This thing looks MEAN. It's quite unique and even though it isn't a typical style for "wilderness" or "camping" knives, the harpoon design still has great functionality for the back country. You can baton fire wood, use the point for more technical work and if push came to shove, I'm sure you could skin/filet with it if need be. Correctly sharpened, the large belly also makes for a GREAT slicer (make sure to only coat it with food safe oil if you're planning on using it for food prep).

If you're on the fence about this knife, just do it. For the price, a fixed blade/sheath combo of this quality is amazing!
