    Default New KaBar Becker Bk2 and mini survival kit

    I just got my Becker Bk2 in the mail yesterday and I love this thing. When I pulled it out of the box, my first impression is this thing is a beast. It is just begging me to thrash it! I have been using a Sog Seal Pup and it has been a great knife but I was worried about its toughness. I hate to say it, but I really abuse my knives. If I am in a real survival situation, I don't want to doubt my number one survival tool.
    The first thing I did to the BK2 is attach 6 ft. of paracord as a lanyard. Next I painted a small altoids tin and put a firesteel, scraper, and enough fatwood to start alot of fires. It is attached to the kydex sheath with a 2inch wide ranger band. Tomorrow I will be including a few small hooks, sinkers, and about 25 ft. of fishing line. I usually carry way too many supplies with me into the bush. But should I become seperated from my daypack, I will still have a survival knife, a way to start fire, and a way to procure food. If you can think of anything else that I should put in there, just respond with your suggestions.
    Sorry for the quality of photos, but I am using my cell phone.

    Good deal. As you say, the BK 2 is one sturdy knife.

    @Chrs - here's a picture of my BK 2. I'll bet they are similar.

    Have one, and love it. It is most definitely a tank. not crazy about the plastic sheath though. I actually haven't used mine yet, I keep thinking I am going to make a day trip to my hunting land and test it, but never seem to get there.

    I'm going on a walkabout this weekend and I'm sure that I will see what it's all about. I just got a new hammock that I want to test out.
