Awesome knife. Great balance and razor sharp out of the box. I have used for cutting branches to fine detail work. The scales should be upgraded to the micarta ones asap to make it perfect.

The knife looks nice, though it surprised me that it was just lying loose in the box, but unlike other reviewers I'm sorry to say it was NOT sharp at all, indeed it was pretty blunt as delivered. And looks like it will need quite a bit of work to make it as sharp as I'd expected. The sheath suits a slightly longer knife as well as this one, but while the plastic insert on the main knife is useful the one on the outer pocket - and the positioning of the elastic - make that pocket more difficult to use. Once I've spent time with it making it actually fit for purpose I suspect it will prove to be a good knife.

Big heavy knife that will do all appropriate jobs you need it to do. Well made, sharp and tough. The sheath is huge and not as bad as people make out. Usefull pocket on front. Would have preferred it not to be coated black but it's easy enough to remove and polish. I like it.

Superb quality, bought for a wilderness survival weekend and it owned every task I attempted. Mora's were the norm in the group and the bk7 outperformed them on everything except field dressing rabbit, although from what I gather this was more down to my inexperience than the knife. Although expensive compared to many other options the sheer quality of the knife epitomized by the way you can batton logs almost effortlessly more than demonstrates the value for money it truly represents. Once you've removed some of the protective coating on the spine so it will spark a ferro rod (which fit's nicely in the sheath) you're set for practically any task the outdoors can throw at you. Top product and first class service, highly recommend.

It seems a lot of money but like another reviewer said it's worth it and it definitely is . This knife is better than expected with a really nice weight and balance . The blade steel is fantastic quality and literally breezes through camp chores . After recent shoulder surgery I haven't got full strength back yet but this large knife actually makes the work much easier . I don't have a problem with the sheath and the only change I made was to wrap some padded grippy handlebar tape around the handle . A1 get one !

Great knife. Solid, tough steel. holds a very sharp edge. Grip is very slick. A very cheap upgrade is to wrap any grip around to make a perfect knife.

This knife came out the box razor sharp and with a good quality sheath. The blade is thick and heavy duty and can take a right good beating holding a good edge.

The Becker BK7 is a good strong knife if you want something to whack about, batonning, etc. It's not a thing of great beauty or subtlety, but will stand some pretty hard use. You'll need to dress off some of the coating on the spine if you want to use that for striking ferrocerium 'fire steels'.
