Very nice knife. This summer I'm going to try to get a production nudist with pb washers.. do they make them with washers? I'm not too familiar with shirogorov's.

I've never seen one on washers myself but they could exist..especially if you can track down an older one.

Thx I will have to do some searching. I just feel the bearings will get gritty being I'm a plumber and usually get to go into a crawlspace or two daily.
 
Since I'm here I'll post a pic of today's carry. Stretch in HAP40 along with a LG insingo, SAK and GEC 72 green micarta lockback.

Probably too big. What's the story of the neon? Is that the smallest of the lineup?

F3 is like the F95 in size, but it's a liner lock on washers or bearings.
The neon is a scaled down F95 essentially. Definitely the smallest of the serials. Good luck scoring one though

Thank you !
It's a Carter Cutlery: Muteki Original Neck Knife - Arizona Desert Ironwood
Specifications:


Steel: White Steel #1 san-mai with SUS410 Stainless Steel

I see a lot of people doing customs with the Carter Neck type silhouette recently (or are they blanks also?).


That steel is going to take a great contrasting patina with use. Probably a nice sandwich line down the spine also.

I was thinking the same thing. It's beautiful now, but when that middle layer patinas it'll be gorgeous.

Thanks for the info Factor, and congrats on the nice blade.

I was thinking the same thing and I'm trying to decide if I want to force a Patina sorta speak to my liking or let it happen naturally . I got it to be a user "Light user for my needs "
So definitely going to enjoy this one and I actually carried it all day today as a neck knife with a lanyard I threw on it .
I was surprised how comfortable it was and I didn't really like the idea of a rope around my neck for someone to grab when and if it got exposed so I tied one knott and heated up the ends so it should snap apart if yanked on hard . But enough to hold together just snapping it out of the sheath.
Was planning on getting a leather pocket sheath like I have for my bravo EDC but I'm kinda liking the neck sheath carrying option and it's like having another pocket for another knife lol for a back up . This is my first Carter so I'm learning on the fly with just a little research before the purchase . What's cool though is Carter Cultery is actually only a few miles from my house so my next one im going to step up a little and hand pick one . They have a 2 hour tour once a month taking you through all the steps when they make them so that's pretty cool can't wait to check it out and get a little more educated .

Your very welcome and Thanks Man [emoji1303]
I wish I could be more informative but like I mentioned I'm kind of learning on the fly and basically just fell in love with its natural beauty .
