Hi All,

I'm trying to compile a list of CUSTOM skeleton or integral neck knives (no handle slabs)...here's what I have so far (in no particular order):

Crawford Kasper + Hideout + Others
Polkowski Xr7 (is this still being produced??) + Kasper Gaunt
Warrent Thomas Chaos
Mike Snody Facilitator + Eroder + Borg + Quicksilver
Allen Blade MEUK 5
Blackwood (unnamed)
Perrin LaGriffe
Hatin Teck
Jerry Hossom Spikes
Mosier (unnamed)
RJ Martin Rottweiler
Siegle
Washburn Defender
Wicked Woo
Wilkins Thorn


Can you think of any others? Are TOPS and Mission production or custom?

Any suggestions and pics welcome.

Thanks,
RL
 
Not sure of specific model designations, but a small tanto, and a larger clip point, said to be ground by Emerson.

Sweet high-end neck blades.
 
I have a few models in my line...the most popular ones are these...

My Naked Sheepfoot in Damasteel (also make it in RWL-34)

raker makes some of the best knives youll find...forged 52100,its amazing what this man can do with fire and steel.
 
Thanks for the responses so far...

Jens..yes, I remember those...sorry for not including them in the list :o (very nice, BTW)

Do you have scans of the "Raker"...I'm not familiar with this one...

I just got one by Bub Worrell....pretty nice.

Also, Mike Cooper (forum name: L6Steel) makes a real nice one. I have 2 of them.
 
Ray Kirk's Lil Blue II. Ray makes a fine knife, and is a good person and a pleasure to deal with to boot.

I've got a Raker Lil Blue too. Traded Richard out of it a while back. It's my EDC necker. Ray's da man.
 
Max makes a great one too. I have used the he ll out of both my Raker and Max's. However mine from Max does have handle scales but I know he makes em without too. Should be just as nice.
 
Darrel Ralph ArcLite. I have 2. :) Darrel's is the one Camillus used for their ArcLite production knife.
 
I've got this custom neck knife made by Richard Rosvall called the Devil's Finger. I know this is the first he made like this, I don't know if he's made any others.

Hi RL,

Larry Chew made a few skeletonized customs called "neck bone." You may have to search the secondary market for those though. I'm not sure if a TOPS would be considered a custom but they are mostly hand made. The blanks a water jet cut out, then ground by hand by owner Mike Fuller.
 
Tom Mayo makes a few...I don't have any pics, but I have seen his work in Talonite and BG42......
