Short KA-BAR USA, or Becker Companion?
I have narrowed my search down to these two knives, which would be better? I want the best, all purpose knife, which can do a bit of everything.
Separately, does anyone know where you can buy the Becker with the micarta handle?
Thanks!
The Becker BK-2 is a tank of a knife and as thus would be heavier than the Ka-Bar short.
For camping and outdoor the BK-2 would probably suffice.
This place also has the micarta slabs sold separately: http://www.tomarskabars.com/BK-2_INFO.html
I have the Ka-Bar short and compared to the BK-2 is thinner and lighter. I would have no problems bringing the (Ka-Bar) short out camping or outdoors.
