Any plans for a new BK-06 Patrol Machete?

[amflud]

I haven't seen much interest in these on this forum. I like the ones I've seen and I would definately jump at the chance to get one. Thanks.

I would totaly get one without thinking if KaBar came out with one.

this one has been answered before, and i should put it in the FAQ...

KaBar doesn't (didn't?) have the grinders for this one, it's WAY too long... so it's not going to happen anytime in 2010, or 2011, or ... ?

now, i know they got a fancy new machine, but i *THINK* the MachAx is pushing the limits on that one... so if that's true, probably not so much for a BK-06 Patrol Machete.

me? i'm eyeballing the Condor lineup for a certain something something :>

and in a pinch, Fiskars makes a couple objects, that i own or will own... even if they aren't Beckers :>

Hey Everybody.....

The Bk-6 is definitely in a holding pattern at the moment......If ya gotta get a machete in the next year or so I would personally go with the ESSE model....Jeff and Mike have a lotta time with a machete in hand......I have wielded it at SHOT and the handle is sweet.......A great idea done as well as can be done with a "standard" machete blade......

All Best....
