The KA-BAR Becker Campanion BK82 is the premium, high-performance evolution of the iconic BK2 survival knife. Ethan Becker designed this knife to be an uncompromising field tool, now featuring the benefits of state-of-the-art blade steel. Consequently, the BK82 provides the legendary toughness and thickness of the Campanion paired with vastly improved corrosion resistance and edge retention.
Specifically, the Campanion BK82 features a thick, full-tang 5.25-inch drop point blade made from premium CPM MagnaCut stainless steel. This steel is celebrated for its excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and stainless properties, making it superior for survival use. The ergonomic Ultramid handle scales provide a comfortable, secure grip, and it includes the rugged black hard shell plastic sheath for secure carry.
