I own a lot of knives and several of the Becker models and all are excellent.
The coating on the Becker's isn't up to hard use, so I stripped the stock coating and cerakoted the entire knives.
I'm not familiar with the other option, so I'd say look hard at the steels used and ensure it will meet your purpose.
It is really difficult to sharpen super steels in the field, so 1095 still has a place in this world.
ETA: Bark River are also my favorites. Most of mine are too pretty to use. I usually only get Desert Ironwood handles although I do have a black Micarta just for the color.
