Which neck knife
« on: March 03, 2010, 01:36:00 PM »
I have been wwanting to get a real nice custom knife.  Been throwing ideas around for several months now.  I have decided to get a neck knife.  Now, just like when you decide to buy a new bow, which one.  
I really like the neck knife that Guru posted pics of from the Pig gig.  What do yall think?  Who make a good'en?  Pics would help, but I need to know who made it when you post em.

Well, they all pretty much do the same thing. Why not just look around, find one that appeals to you, and get it?

Check out the knife section here on TG. Lots of craftsmen here....Jeeremy, Doug Campbell, skullworks, sticshooter, way to many to name and all do good work. Depends on what you want, when you want it and what you want to pay for it. Type of steel, handle material, size of knife.....

Check out the knifes on Fred Asbells site. They are well made and very functional. They are also reasonably priced. I have one and I like it a lot. I was thinking about getting another one a size bigger than the one I have.

I don't know how nice you mean by real nice; but, Murray Carter makes one of finest blades you can buy.  He also specializes in neck knives because he loves the functionality of them.  If your willing to spend that kind of money it will be money well spent.
