Yes I have. Back when I traveled alot I wore a neck knife that very seldom came off. I dont neck carry evey often any more as my job wont allow it. Out side of work I stilll carry a BK11 Ethan style some. :)

Post by: David on October 04, 2017, 03:52:37 AM: I forgot that I have a sheath I can neck carry a Spyderco Ladybug. I haven't used it lately. I need to dig out and use again as it is real handy. :)
Title: Re: Who owns a neck knife?
Post by: Ron Who on October 18, 2017, 07:13:30 AM: I have only a few, and don´t carry any. On many work sites, safety regulations prohibit any form of necklace or even a tie.

Post by: wonderwolf on October 24, 2017, 03:08:44 AM: This past year I've started trying out neck knives as my new local permits it, previously anything in a sheath was frowned upon.

CRKT Kling-on has worked well so far, I cut the retention straps off as the magnet is more than enough to hold it in place. I've run for several miles on the treadmill and it hasn't budged.

CRKT "No bother" is a recent addition, little heavy for me but so far its gone from neck to belt and back to neck...still think I like it better on the belt but in a social setting either way would work great.

Mora Eldris----need to make a kydex sheath for it but its been a fun little knife...havn't asked too much of it yet but its a great little performer.

I have a few others but they were never purchased with the intent as a neck knife, more of a small pack knife something to put on the key ring loop inside a pack or similar kind of location.

Title: Re: Who owns a neck knife?
Post by: Nix on February 19, 2018, 04:08:11 PM: I wear a necker on occasion. Like Greg, I like carrying one when I'm on the water in a canoe or kayak--always handy to get to. I also wear one when I'm wade fishing. My waders cover up my clothing, and it's nice to be able to access a knife quickly, if needed.

I also like a necker when I'm out camping. I secure a small LED light to the sheath and I always have a small light and knife with me....even when I'm bumbling around at night.

Post by: Aloha on February 19, 2018, 04:23:28 PM: I have a CRKT Minimalist that saw some carry time and usage. While I like the easy of having a neck knife I find a belt knife more to my liking. I have carried it camping and have enjoyed it very much. I think I'll carry at home a little more so thank you for posting this.

Post by: dks on February 19, 2018, 06:03:25 PM: I have three Cold Steel Urban Pals that I strongly suspect are fakes. I have had them for years and use them a lot as letter openers, to cut small items and thread and as pry-bars. However, I never neck-carry them.

Post by: microbe on September 26, 2019, 06:32:33 PM: I bought one once to see what the fuss was about, but I don't use it a lot as a neck knife, as I prefer to clip it on my belt if I carry it.

Wow...thats kinda like the guy who's wife stabbed him in the chest by the heart. Paramedics get there and he’s on the floor, the knife was moving every so often. His heart would beat and push against the blade!

They do have some great meds nowadays! I had to have some surgery 3 years ago...they gave me the meds and I counted 100, 99, 98, 9...woke up 8 hours later! :rofl:

Post by: Alan K. on September 27, 2019, 08:38:25 PM: Looks like it missed the artery by about an inch. Very lucky I'd say. I bet he thinks more carefully about what he's going to say the next time his wife asks him if a dress makes her look fat.

I don't know...that smile says, "Well, I can get stitches, but you'll still be fat."
