Ok, here goes. I reckon this will be my official request for a Beckerhead number!

I have at least 75 posts on BF and 25 posts here, with what I hope to be at least a little contribution!

I have started 5 threads in the Becker subforum

I have a BK4 gifted to me by The_Warrior!

I have a BK5

And finally, my BK20

I would like to request #627 if that is ok with the powers that be here!

Thanks!

so, what i need from new heads is the following: list your biases, so we can use them against you later
...

o camera brand/system

o editor

o language

o paradigm

o vehicles

o gender

o blood type

o dna, please be specific, esp receptors on alpha:105:13:ribase:14:alpha,beta,gamma

o zygote rebase

o guns

o calibers

o preference to natural fibers

o tolerance to poisons, toxins, and environments


failure to comply or failure to satisfy requirements may or may not result in other actions

prompt response may result in pain mitigating drugs for your further enhancement in the Becker collective as you serve to enhance our cultural mission

that is all

404

i guess some people are going to start losing their BH#s because they failed the above oh well.

paid appropriately, the coveted numbers can be bought

oh hai, there's this guy, who wants 627, who seems to have done the homework, and posted pictures, that don't even seem too shopped, because you knows, the mod is busy... (i'm not sure what the other mods do, but eat bacon, and sometimes goto blade show?)...

welcome, new victim 91bravo

now, honor the mod, you know you want to.

thanks!

 

[DunkEm]

Congrats bravo!

 

[Wood Splitter]

Congrats!

 

[The Warrior]

Congrats 627!

 

[91bravo]

Thanks yall! 627 is pretty significant to me and I'm glad to get it. Thanks fellow Beckerheads for having me, there will be more overnighter adventures, knife abuse and Becker pics to come!

 

[Jonny1280]

An excellent addition to the fold!
Congrats Bravo!

 

[91bravo]

Thanks Jonny! Oh hell, there's 2 Jonnys here now, I smell trouble! lol

 

[bearfacedkiller]

I'm in!

Been meaning to do this for a while. I figure I should kick it into gear and get my Beckerhead status before the NE Gathering. I would like #2611 but if that is too high of a number just put me down for whatever. Thanks.

My knives. I have an extra BK4 too.

My favorite Becker pics.

Thanks!!!

Just a little bump to keep me from getting lost on page two.

Good afternoon all,

I am not sure if Beckerhead status is still something that can be achieved, but if it is still within the desperate grasp of lowly plebes such as myself, I figured I would use my 100th post in the Becker sub-forum to officially apply for said status. It was my fondness for Becker knives in general that brought me to the forums in the first place and I have not regretted it one bit. It has been a pleasure sharing our experiences and mutual interests here.

Based on my studious research, I do believe I have met all the requirements. However in regards to the additional criteria added by the most venerable Bladite, I will say this: Mars. Aliens. Railguns. Iphones. Do with that what you will.

Otherwise here it goes!

I have at least 75 posts in areas other than the Becker sub-forum and I have at least 25 posts here amongst the Beckerheads. As I usually try to not say anything unless I feel it is somewhat relevant (in my head anyway), I hope that my posts have contributed something positive.

I have started at least 5 threads in the Becker sub-forum, it is my hope that they haven't been completely worthless...

Links to started threads located here:

My BK-16 Work-in-Progress
Short Winter Outing with Beckers of course
Beckers and Smokes
Sandblasting Beckers
New Pants for a friend (BK-10)
Spring fling with the sweet 16


Now on to the glamour shots. I took some new pics for the application.

My first Becker, the one that started it all for me. The one and only King, the BK-9. Bask in its glorious presence...

My second Becker, the Indomitable Iron Mistress, the BK-2...

My third Becker, the Fiery, but Sweet, Sweet 16...

And rounding out the current lineup is the versatile Jack of all Trades, Master of Awesome, the BK-5...

A couple pics of the entire gang together, a nice tidy family, room for growth...

Thank you to all for making this such a cool place to hang out and for giving my application consideration. I am looking forward to meeting up with some of you at the Gathering in person and getting to know those of you in far away places as well. If I am so fortunate that I am accepted in amongst your ranks, I humbly request Beckerhead #450, which according to the master list, is still available.

Thanks again all!

 

[Dr Rez]

Hello all, I am Dr Rez and I would like to join the Beckerhead group. I’ve been a member since 2012 and lurker since 2010 here on Bladeforums. I typically do not post much as so many people here are experts in knifemaking and metallurgy that I simply come to learn and read what they have so say. I would however like to start becoming more active and perhaps share some of my knowledge to newer members like others did for me.

My love for Becker knives came like many others in that I purchased a leather stacked USMC KABAR. This was my first real quality fixed blade knife that I carried everywhere. The more I learned and used it the more I realized that while being a great knife it was not suited to my needs. I eventually saw KABAR made a line called Becker knives that looked much more appropriate for my uses. Flash up to recently where I finally received a Bk16 and am again starting fires and edcing with a big smile on my face. Better find the paint stripper and some files and get to work.

Below is a picture of my small Becker collection containing a Bk2, Bk11, and now the Bk16. The picture below that is just a shot of the cleaning and convexing of my prybar…I mean Bk2. It seems I am the first to apply for the Beckerheads since the forum reset so I will post my 75 post count, 25 subforum count, and 5 threads the best I can.

EDIT: I have reposted my application from April 17th in this new thread and changed the search links to screen shots of Becker and all posts. I think the searches were not working because of the forum update. Also I do not know if we are supposed to wauit on requesting a number or not anymore so if so I would humbly like to request #420 as it does not appear to be taken. If not...no worries. Thanks for your time!!!

 

[panoz77]

I think when the forum migration occurred, there are some changes in the how to. So instead of screenshots, I'm going to post links to the search results and see if that works.

I believe I qualify and would like to request #421 which I believe was not taken.

I would like to become a Beckerhead, and if possible, request number #629. Here are my bonafides that meet the requirements, although there will be plenty more to follow.

Thanks, Troy
