Which knife?
Allright so i'm gonna go buy a new knife, don't really need another one, but i WANT another one...LOL. So i been searching around and have found 2, but i can't decide which. The Kbar Heavy bowie or the becker bk7, both made by the same company but alot of differences in knife style. I've watched quite alot of youtube reviews and it seems either one is tough as hell. So my question is which do you own? and what have your experiences with the knife been like? also how has your sheath held up?
Neither - sorry no help.
Can't help ya' either. Besides, this is the one I use the most.

Spreads peanut butter quite well, and does a super job with jelly on an English Muffin.
Besides, it's not sharp, so they let me use it whenever I want.
EDIT: It makes a great fighting knife, too!

Buy them both. Try them out. Give the one you don't like to someone you don't like.
1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

Now you're just sounding pathetically desperate.

Pathetically is an adverb
Desperate is an adjective
Put them together you have an adverjective

the BEST all-round knives are either Victorinox or Wenger lock blades, such as the
Ranger, Jaeger or Rucksack model.
I would not waste money on either knife you mention.
So Stony - what experience do you have with the two that are mentioned?
Why is that relevant? Facts, experience, logic - and Stony....

Got to love opinions.

Id have to argue with Stony.The best all around knife is a Buck Redpoint.Why you ask? Because it fits my hand like it was made just for me.It has a strait and serated blade.One hand opening,and wait for it.Wait for it, it has a built in bottle opener in the handle.It just flat out works for me so it must be hands down the best.

I'm beginning to sense a pattern developing. Maybe it's just me.

uh ya.. ok. guess i'll just do some more reasearch.
i use to have the Bk7. the knife is awesome. wasnt really into the givory scales on the handle but i know that you can buy micarta replacements. the sheath it comes with is kinda cheap too. the Bk7 also comes with a smaller blade which i thought was pretty cool. i ended up selling the knife cause i bought a Scrap Yard SOD which is pretty much the same size.
how dare i call this love and not bare my cross

What is it with all the junko sheaths that knife companies put out? You can purchase a really fine knife and you get a piece of junk material that it's wrapped in. Sad.
