Bought me a Bravo necker. Should be here next week. So, expect pics, and a review.

I didnt buy the handle slabs though.......yet. :rolleyes:

Im a sucker for that damn Bravo line. :o
 
Me too. Mine is red. I wanted green/black slabs but they were sold out. I guess that is good so I can test out the knife before investing another $45.
 
Great score, I'd be interesed to knowhow comfortable it isin-hand. It probably wouldn't be too hard to make your own scales for it, might bea fun little project.

Me three. :D I ordered my necker last week- I can't wait for it! I got the red blade with red & black linen micarta. I have a feeling these things are going to be real winners. :thumbup:

I need to pick up a Gunny sometime soon- then it'll be a waiting game for the big-bruiser Bravo 3! :eek: Oooooooh. That thing's gonna be SWEET.

Ya know...I bet youre right!!
 
I really like how its coated w/satin blade, and stainless....Those things were a big selling point to me.... And the screamin convex barkies have.

Dude I know!!! The Gunny is my all time favorite Barkie. Maybe even knife. :thumbup:

Red w/ red/black will be neat!

Why not? You know you're going to! :D

I'll be interested in seeing a good hand shot. The handle looks too small for me, I need a full size handle, but the picture I saw may be misleading.

Yeah..I know. I shouldve. Main reason was I couldnt decide on a color. hehe...:o

Ill snap ya some good in hand pics Doc. :thumbup:
 
right on jake... i also really like the Bravo line and those neckers look great..:) looking forward to hearing your review...:thumbup:
 
Well tell us how it works for you J when you get it! I think it looks like a great little knife.

I wonder how long before Mntnfolk Mike gets one. He can't leave any necker's untouched it would seem :)
 
Is the handle bigger or longer on the Barkie, compared to the RAT Izula?
Izula handle is to short for comfort for me.

I would love to see a review.

I'm really wanting to get one but trying to decide if it has anything I absolutely need considering the price.

I have the PSK and Mikro 2 and love them and the Bravo necker would be a BIT more blade length correct?

The RAT one looks great but the coating and the fact it isn't stainless puts me off.

Then I see that BROWNING is making some neckers similar size to the Bravo one in the same? steel but lower price so now I'm trying to decide if the convex part is worth the extra $$ over the Browning.

The Bravo Neckers and the Izulas are VERY close in size and shape. So much so that the new Sharpshooter spine-lock sheath fits both of them perfectly.
