    The Becker BK2 has always been one of my favourite knives. A literal crowbar with an edge. I loved it not for it's practicality but for it's indestructibility. The fact it puts a smile on your face when holding it. But what if you gave the BK2 a super steel!? That's exactly what Ka-bar and Knives and tools did! Meet the Ka-bar Becker BK72! The beast is back on steroids! So how does it perform? Check out our episode today!

    A more than proven veteran knife with an improvement in what the blade material is, avoiding periodic maintenance as well as prolonged sharpening, an interesting example in another type of steel.

    • @marty1685
      @marty1685 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yep, and ESEE themselves do not trust their s35vn knives, they feel it is inferior to their 1095 knives. It is, because s35vn is pocket knife steel, not survival knife steel. It breaks before it bends.

    • @marty1685
      @marty1685 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @@tacticalcenter8658 No, most steels that are hardened above 58 hrc do. 420HC is much stronger than S35VN. Would rather have a survival knife in 420HC or 1095 than S35VN. Would rather edc S35VN. Different materials different jobs, one is not all around better than the other. When you put pocket knife steel on a survival knife, you are making an inferior survival knife. The only reason ESEE uses S35VN is market demand from people who don’t understand their knives and think they need some sort of “premium” steel. 1095 is the premium steel on a survival knife, not s35vn.

    • @marty1685
      @marty1685 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Even ESEE considers S35VN a downgrade from 1095 on survival knives:
      Message from the owners of ESEE Knives:
      While we offer the exact same warranty on S35V as the rest of our line, we do not suggest the ESEE-3 S35V as a hard-use outdoor knife. These knives are hardened at the optimal 59-60 Rc. Its ability to take abuse is not even close to our ESEE-3 1095 models. The only reason we produced this model is due to the request of our customer base - not because it’s something the ESEE crew would carry or trust their life to. In our opinion, what you gain with such a premium steel in edge-holding and stain resistance does not justify the extra cost. Not to mention its inability to take the abuse that our regular knives are capable of.

    Thanks DBK guys for another nice video. Last week my eye fell on the 2 versions in the showroom of knivesandtools, 2 nice versions to see. Too bad the sheath is not a symmetrical sandwich sheath with belt loop. Apart from that, it is nice that they finally mount a micarta handle scales directly. Great, keep it up!

    I love the channel enjoyed the video and do respect you guys for coming around on the shooting test not being an indicator of quality because it really isn't it's more of a brittleness test for the steel, unless you're out there trying to deflect bullets with your knife like in anime it's a very outlandish scenario.

    I am going to get one being a Beckerhead myself. Thanks for showing and reviewing. Obviously, the knife was not created to be a shooting target. It passed all the other tests quite well. First and foremost is the total integrity of the knife and could you depend on it with your life. Based on what I have seen, the answer is yes. The knife is a real beast, not a fake one ! A friend always !

      I've seen AR 500 armor plate that can't stand up to extended rifle shots. One of the major tests for a pressure vessel like a pressurized tank is an impact test at low temperature. There are many steels that can't handle low temp impact tests.
      Knives are not really designed to be heavily impacted an a regular basis.....

    Make a non coated BK- 2 in Magnacut with a saber grind and a 90 degree spine. The ultimate in toughness, edge holding, rust resistance, ect. That would be a bad ass knife right there. S35vn is nice for cutting, but 1095 kicks its ass in toughness, but Magnacut is tougher then A1, so that would be a beast!

    I have a BK7 and a BK9 and they are awesome. Admittedly the BK7 is my favorite because the 9 is really too big to carry around on your belt and the 7 is pretty much perfect.
    If they made an S35V BK7.... actually, please don't because I can't afford it. Oh and sheath thing boggles the mind. They should have at least included a Tek-lok or something.

    • @DonMetal
      @DonMetal ปีที่แล้ว

      Well for the sheath: one guy wants a TekLok, then then next one wants a MOLLE lok, and the third one will chuck it in a backpack and wont worry about a clip. So I get it they leave it to the user to choose.
