Re: neck knives

Here's the link:

There you'll find sheaths for KaBar's TDI and Cold Steel's Braveheart, safemaker, safe keeper to name a few.
I have them for my TDI knives and they work great! They allow for a full grip while the knife is still in the sheath, and that is very, very important!

Here's the e-mail if you need something less common:

Re: neck knives

jbirds, that's a great choice! I have a couple of those, and I really like them. They are compact on the beltline and that's a big plus. They also suffer from the poor sheath , but I've found a solution for that with the custome sheath maker,Infight Access Kydex Sheaths. There is also a training drone for practicing with. I also have a few "contact trainers" that are greatly appreciated by training partners. :reddevil

I knew I would forget some, and someone would take up the slack. LOL

It's also good to see what other folks have found to work well.

Re: neck knives

gmckinl: I clarified the post by adding "OAL".

The NIOSA thread makes me glad I'm not in San Antonio much.

Re: neck knives

The pictured FB knife looks fine. Think about carry methods you'll be using. The OAL is important, depending on your planned carry method, 5" - 6.5" OAL is a good length for a defensive blade carried horizontal. You can get away with a little longer for IWB carry etc...

Here's some to start your search off with.
ShivWorks Clinchpick
Benchmade 211 Activator
Benchmade 220 fixed resistor
BENCHMADE 155 FIXED PRESIDIO
Benchmade tether
CRKT FIXED FALCON KNIFE
CRKT Folts Minimalist
CRK-2010, CRKT, Crawford Kasper Dragon,
CRK-2030CW, CRKT, Crawford Triumph N.E.C.K. Knife

The sheath is usually the weakest part of the knife "package". So for all but the first one I'd plan on spending money on a custom sheath. They can be had for $30-$50 IIRC, and they are worth it!

Re: neck knives

I am a big fan of the small fixed blade knife. If you choose neck carry, remember the knife can swing on the end of the chain and move around if you end up on the ground/wrestling or someone gets neck control on ya. I have seen them move around to the back or come out above the neckline of a shirt.
