the title says it all, are you sick and tired of thick, heavy, overbuilt neckers that take up permanent residence at the bottom of your knife drawer instead of being with you and working everyday?
Here is one of my lightweight neckers, decked out with a handsanded finish, Bocote handle with aluminum guard and a steel pin. this one is a super light, nice and thin, light to medium use utility knife, for daily cutting uses such as opening mail, trimming fingernails, peeling an apple, making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, ect... of course they work great in the field for small game, wild turkeys, and trout. this pattern also works pretty good on game up to the size of antelope and smaller whitetails!
of course if you don't like neck carry, you can run the neck cord through the hollow rivets to make a handy belt loop {this is the way I carry one every day}.
OAL- 6 3/4"
blade- 3" long tip to scales, .073" thick at the spine, .032" measured 1/4" behind the edge, and .011" thick at the shoulder of the edge. 11/16" wide
steel- 1095 high carbon, differentially hardened. heat treat includes a double normalize, double anneal, triple edge quench { most of the blades width on these narrow blades} and triple temper for a really nice performing blade that takes and holds a great edge and yet is easy to resharpen!
grind- a full flat grind, sharpened on a Smiths 325 diamond hone with micro bevels, to an aggressive razor edge
finish- 400 grit handsanded finish, then etched in ferric to bring out the hardening line.
handle- Bocote with steel pin and aluminum guard. handle is finished with 200 grit with the lines running lengthwise with the handle so it looks good yet isn't slick
sheath- .060 thick kydex with small black rivets. stripped paracord, easily adjustable, and it is cut for my necker safety feature.
weight - 2.25 ounces for the total package of knife, sheath and cord. That's about the weight of a Zippo lighter!!!!!! for the WHOLE PACKAGE!!
I did a few videos on youtube on my 2 lines of neckers:
to explain what I am after in a neck knife
and a destructive test of the Carter style necker
$165 plus $7 for shiping/insurance to CONUS. I can accept paypal Joe357m@bresnan.net or money order.
1st to post "I'll take it" gets it!!!
Ships within 48 hours of payment priority with ins.
Feedback appreciated, and thanks for looking!
If you would like one like this one or different, PM or email with details!
