so i need a small fixed blade for edc. I had an izula in the past and traded it for a larger knife but im missing having a smaller knife that i can keep in my pocket. Should i get another izula or is there anything else to look at. maybe the new bark river neck knives. thanks guys.
 
I have no experience with the izula, but I love my becker necker. I'm 6'4" so I have relatively large hands, and the handle length has been a non-issue for me. I love 1095 steel, and so that combined with the obvious price advantage the bk necker has made it a no brainer for me, I love it. It's my newest edc. Anyhow, that's my 2 cents! Good luck!
 
Check the makers forum and look into some of our local makers before you decide. You can get a custom made to your specs for comparable prices.
JK, Fiddleback, Koyote, Gossman etc. You won't be disappointed.
JK (Stomper) is about 45 minutes from you. I bet he can make exactly what you want and for a good price.
 
Bark River makes some nice pocket sized fixed blades. I particularily like the little creek (bottom two in the pic).

BTW, the ruler scale is in cm (ie 2.54 cm = 1 inch)



Kind regards
Mick

i love jk knives i have a few and a koyote hehe. im just looking for something i can get right now. i know the wait time for these guys and its worth it but im looking for something less than 100 bucks that i can purchase this week. thanks for the suggestion.
 
What's the rush? Check out Koyote or ML.

Koyote makes about three or four different little edc's (I've got his mini-Nessmuk on my belt right now, see pic below. :)).

I like the Last Chance by Matt at MLKnives--low profile EDC and wicked sharp edge geometry.

The JK (Stomper) EWOK is a great edc.

Scott Gossman has a couple of PSK's nearly finished and up for grabs on his forum. His PSK is a great edc also.

You could try to contact John Landi in re his PSK--another really useful edc.

Man, the options are unlimited. Try contacting Mr. Newberry; his edc is fantastic: nice sharp point, great heat treat, rides nicely in the pocket in a kydex sheath.

Dude, your options are amazing!

+1 on the BRK Little Creek!

One of the best three finger fixed blades out there! Extremely sharp and sturdy!

One of the few blades I would consider owning two of...

Send a PM to mykulmorris. Ask about the Pee-Wee. He puts together a beautiful EDC knife for a very reasonable price.

I've handled them and have a custom on order.

A member here and great guy to deal with too. Order one before he realizes that he is giving knives away and starts charging what they're actually worth. ;)
 
How about trying out a Bravo Necker, it looks tempting and very close to the Izula.

Personally I carry either an Izula or a HEST, but the Bark River Bravo Necker looks nice.
