Highest weight for a neck knife?

[iamtoast]

What would you consider as too heavy for a neck knife?

or, what is the weight of the neck knife you use?

I'm wearing one right now. I've owned many over the years and I don't really think about comfortable carry as simply a 'weight' issue. People are different sized, some have more muscle mass than others.

If I wear one and don't notice that it's there, then if passes as a useable necker. If I feel it around my neck or it's always banging around inside my shirt, it doesn't pass the test.

Muscle mass won't affect how someone feels with a neck knife, not many people are carrying 5lb neck knives.

I'd say about 4 oz is my personal limit(about the weight of the average one handed folder). And even that's getting a bit heavy.

A Becker Necker is a little over a 1/4 lbs. with the chain. Its big for a neck knife.
