Neck Knife in the woods?????

I got my ESEE Izula a few weeks ago and it has not left my neck yet That is unless I am sleeping. Love it and I feel it is a very practical blade to have at hand. I would take this into the woods before I would take a folder but I will always have that too.

heh, maybe so... to each his own. I just find it incredibly annoying and impractical. Been doing alot of baldric carry as of late, though. Around the neck and under the armpit... easy to access, secure, doesn't flop around, clear of the pack. I could see carrying a necker like that...

I took neck knife to mean the size of knife. I don't carry my izula around my neck. I find it's much more convenient and easier to access on the belt, horizontal carry.

As an aside, I drool when I see Pict's setup.

You can do that with alot of different knives. I'm in the process of setting up 4 Blind Horse Tiger Knapps as neck kits. The BK-11 has always seemed like a prime candidate for a neck kit as well. Mac
 
The thread made me do a little thinking anyway. I went ahead and ordered a Becker BK11 from (redacted),and it only cost me (redacted)! It's worth trying.
 
I like a neck knife carried that way when I'm in a canoe or a boat since sitting down interfers with withdrawl from a sheath on the belt. Even though I used and love a skeletal neck knife, my disposition towards them changed dramatically when I tried using my izula to shape a bowdrill kit. Yeah it worked, but it was hell on the hands to do so. So now, I tend towards a little knife with proper handles.

The Culberson EDC makes a nice neck carry blade that is fine for walking around camp. Not the kind of think you'd wear around in concealed carry mode, but thats not why I carry a neck knife.

i EDC my Fallkniven WM1-3G.

it's the "Little Knife That Could". it's constantly amazing me at just how much i can do with a blade that small.

i think of it as my indestructable pocket scalpel.
