I own an Esee Izula 2 (favorite knife) and a BK11. I love both, but i want to add to the neck knife collection. These blades would mostly be used as outdoor blades, so im not looking for a purely self-defense knife (push dagger ect.). What is your favorite neck knife and why? Im looking for ideas. Any pics would be great! Thanks guys!
 
I carry the AG Russell Hunter's Scalpel as a pocket fixed blade, especially when hiking or motorcycling. It's super-lightweight, durable, and the hard locking sheath is an excellent safety and loss-prevention feature.
 
Bark River Bravo Necker 2 in 3V might be another good option. Blackjack necker in 154CM. Customs. What's your budget?
 
The Boker/Krein Pocket Bowie is a great little knife with a 440C, G-10 scales and comes with a kydex sheath and neck lanyard. Excellent nice fit & finish for the price - I paid less than $28 bucks for mine.

ESEE Candiru: Made in the USA, had to buy a 3rd party kydex sheath
CRKT Folt's Minimalist: Great value lower quality beater
Becker Necker: Sweet blade, low cost
Becker Remora (BK13): I would recommend a 3rd party kydek sheath

An Izula is too big IMO. I would like to try the Boker Pocket Bowie or Gnome.
 
Yep, 200 should be plenty to get you a custom. I'd make you one if your budget was lower, but you can afford to get a really nice one from any of the more experienced makers. I saw a neat one from Daizee recently, and RyanW's neckers are pretty epic as well. I love his style, personally. Or Darrin Sanders, since I can vouch for the quality of his heat treat personally (as he HT's all of my blades). He has some neat little blades. I do love the Bark River BN2, but you might browse around in the Maker's sale forum and see if there's anything that catches your eye.

Oh, also, Swamp Rat makes a nice little necker as well.
 
I could make pretty much anything you want for $200 or even less. You could have your choice of design, steel, handle material, etc.. If you're interested send me an email or better yet call me. All my contact info. is listed below. (Thanks for the reccomendation Nick)
