You might recall my informal neck knife poll I started earlier this week. I kind of lied and said it was informal, in reality, it was to gather feedback about something special....THE OFFICIAL WS&S FORUM NECK KNIFE!!!

Designed by myself, Brian Jones and Dan Koster, the WS&S Necker features

3" blade
3.5" handle
CPM 3V Steel Flat Ground
1/8" thick
1" wide blade
Included Kydex Sheath with integral 3rd layer slim belt loop
Upgrade to micarta handle slabs for approximately $30 more
Kephart-inspired handle and spearpoint blade
Sharp 90 degree spine for firesteel striking
Koster "K" marking and no "WS&S" logo or "BF" logo

This final design is what we feel the ideal practical neck knife is.

The WS&S Necker will be available soon for $75 plus shipping. Dan will create a small run of these and they will be sold on a first come first serve basis. All but one (reserved for a generous giveaway by Dan) will be for sale. Brian and I already claim #1 and #2 but you can get your's soon.

We're working out payment details now. Don't E-mail Dan about these. I'll post more details once we figure them out.

I don't know about you but I am really pumped for this blade!

Post your thoughts!

Wow! Very nice!

Will these have any markings on them? Something to show that they are W/SS exclusives?
 
I will definitely be trying to get in on that. It's a great design and it will be cool to have a WSS knife.:thumbup:

I wanted to post in that thread and just didn't get the time. Doesn't look like my absence was such a problem - the dimensions and shape are what appeals most to me whether it's a necker, in my bag or in my pocket.

Great job, guys!:thumbup::thumbup:
 
very nice...:thumbup: those look great.. perfect utility style design... :)

hopefully i'll be able to get in on this one...:o $$$ is waay tight these days...:thumbdn:

Same here Mike. I'm actually hoping they take their time with this one and it comes around closer to income tax return time. Thats only about eight weeks away so I might be able to pseter my financial advisor (wife) enough to skim a little off the top. :p
 
I'll be in for this one. I'm a fan of all of Dan's work. He's got enough of my money to prove it. ;)
 
It's bigger than I would like, but you folks with more experience with neck knives seem to like them that size.

Regardless of where I would carry it, $75 for a 3V blade and sheath is a very good deal. I just got my first Koster and he really makes a nice knife.
 
Not crazy about handle design, but considering Its a limited run, im in, when are they available?

Also, if its offical, it should have WS&S in it:D
 
definatly a cool knife, although i dont know if i will end up buying one. too much other stuff i plan on buying over the next couple months. maybe on the second run though.
