What's the best necker out there? I've seen the KaBar Eskabar, Esee Izula and Becker necker. I have a 40$ gift card and kind of want to get a necker. A good sheath, good steel and stout knife are all i'm really looking for. I haven't been able to find the izula for under 40, shipped though.
 
46.52 shipped is the cheapest it's been for a long time based on my research. the-knife-connection.com

Before anyone gets on my case about deal spotting, TKC actually posts on these forums, so that makes it okay in my book to post a link to the-knife-connection
 
Yeah but which one is the most robust? I know it will probably come down to the becker necker or the eskabar.
 
I wouldn't consider any other than an izula warranty is amazing sheath is great and quality Is amazing
 
Theyre both well made, tough and have good steel. Ive had all 3 at one point: Izula, BK11, Eskabar. Kept the Izula and Eskabar. Warranty dosent matter squat to me cause i cant see what i would do to them, that would cause any of my knives to break. And IF by some freak accident, they DID break, then Kabar/Becker would take care of you as good as ESEE.

Order both, handle them and send one back.
 
The three you mention are all great and very similar. The two Beckers have a larger blade than the Izula. The Izula is a bit pointier. I went with the BK-11 but you can't go wrong with any of them.

ESEE would get my money---spend the extra money on the Izula and you'll be very glad you did.

But, on the other hand, you can't really go wrong with a Becker either. I would be proud to carry any of either makers' knives.

ESEE fans and Becker fans like to have their fun on the forums here, but really you couldn't ask for better people behind the scenes or running the show at either company. Either way, money well spent.

Good luck, God bless, and merry Christmas.

ranger knives and blackjack knives are coming out with neckers....

also buck has a nice looking one, never seen it though.
 
You cant go wrong with the Izula, its the best neck knife I own. Great sheath and strong knife and easy to sharpen. Not to heavy to carry all day. I love that knife.
 
I love the Izula, and I got one of my Izulas new for $39.99 (email sent w/ info). The other three I traded for.
