Best under $100 neck knife

ESEE Izula. Much less than 100 bucks and will serve your necker needs just as well as any of them that cost more.
 
I really dig my Izula II. I don't neck wear it but, it should be easily done. I never thought of a knife so small would be so handy.
 
Don't forget about the Swamp Rat Swamp Warden. It's a nice little neck knife available in several different finishes. Also the blade steel (SR-101 AKA 52100) is grand as well and has great edge retention, and is reasonably tough.
 
CRKT Minimalist Wharncliffe. For $20, you can't beat it. It will do most EDC tasks pretty well. If you need more than 2 inches of blade, go with an ESSE Izula.
 
I give another vote for Wilder Forge - it is pretty cool to have a unique hand-made knife, and they're definitely blades that look good and can be used.
 
I had the same question a couple of months ago, and ended up going with a custom. There are tons of makers that do little neckers for under $100. Then you can make sure you get exactly what you want!
 
I got the ZT150 on sale for a nickel under a hundred bucks. Crappy sheath, but the S30V and G10 make up for it. I also have the TOPS Baghdad Bullet, which is in the sharp, pry bar category.
