This is, as expected a monstrous knife it is heavy, sturdy and in my example just about shaving sharp..After a bit of stropping it was hair popping with ease. I have had a few Beckers over the years and have always been impressed with the build quality...providing....you know what you are buying..This is a knife to be used not looked at, if you are going to study it's fit and finish in infinite detail, then you probably aren't the right owner for the bk2. If you are the sort of person who is going to take it to the woods, cut tree branches, baton firewood (if you must) throw it about, open cans, cut inappropriate materials and generally not be too bothered about it...Then you are a Becker owner... Only problem with it is....Everything I mention above, apart I guess from can opening, can be better accomplished with an axe of similar weight....Hmmm..now there's food for thought... And I'm not a fan of the sheath...in fact it's pretty awful..I shied away from the plastic/nylon/imitation kydex/whatever one as it's supposed to blunt the knife but, the bk22 floppy cordura alternative that I bought is....Kinda tacky...So you may want to factor in some custom kydex.. All in all an extremely robust no frills utilitarian knife to be used often and probably just kept in the truck..
