I had heard of Becker knives,but had never owned one,or knew anything about the history of them until about a year and a half ago.A friend of mine held a wilderness skills campout in the Cherokee Nat Forest for members of another forum and Ethan Becker came by and invited us up to his compound on Half Moon ridge to engage in some log chopping contests and test out the prototype of the BK 14 Eskabar.
Log that I chopped through with my Mod 14
BK 2 and BK 14 w/55o cord wrap on handle
BK 14 with new orange handle scales
I have been back to Ethans place several times since and have learned a lot about his knives,the knife business,and what great folks him and his family are.Plus sent a bunch of lead downrange and learned a lot about camp cooking Ethan style.I plan on owning many more BK&T knives and highly recommend them.
