Here they are matey, I had one but sadly had to let it go, very sharp and tactile knife,

The Mora classic is a cracking small knife if you don't want to spend a fortune, pimp it by getting a sheath from Leon at Greencraft and your in business.

Moras make great neckers.

Now that is gorgeous but I have a feeling it wont fit into the "affordable" part of the description lol

No probably not, on his website there is no indication of how much he might charge for something like this, however it is a nice pic and maybe will give you some ideas if you ever try your hand at making your own.

Andy. Whats your budget, that way sugesting something will be easier.

Cheers for all the suggestions!- looking at a max of around £25 i'd say the becker necker is nice but just seems really expensive for what it is....or maybe im just tight lol

heard amazing things about the crkt minimalist http://www.heinnie.com/Columbia-Riv...Knives/CRKT-Minimalist-Bowie-/p-129-977-5392/ (no affiliation to them) its not a traditional blade but cutlerylover has a good review of it

also its within your budget

From your OP its a bit tactical looking.

 

[Johnnyboy1971]

For a little bit more you could have an Enzo elver.

 

[andyxedos]

The enzo elver looks nice but from what ive seen online you're looking at £60+ ??

the mora classic range are mostly £11 ish, you can get them here Moonraker knives

I'll add that those fiber sheaths are sewed like if they were leather

Was thinking more along the kit knife lines.
Would a folder be any good like a svord in a sheath on a neck dangler.

Get a Mora Clipper and use the Clipper sheath ( im probably the only person on the planet that actually likes the plastic sheath )

you can use a bit of para cord to neck carry as its very light ( ala Mors )

or use the well designed Clip on the Clipper and Clip it to things ..on a belt its not very good but inside/ outside a pocket top or map or even shirt breast pocket clips into MOLLE / PALS or on a nail/Screw in a work shop or when out a small tree branch

heres my Orange one in my Fav camp user position clipped to the breast pocket of my Desert Shirt
its usually carried in my Bergan side pouch then clipped where ever is best for the jobs its going to do

other than that the best necker in the world is ....... IMHO of course

just have to make sure of how its held so if you trip you dont get teh Tang thro the bottom of your jaw

Or worse in the throat.
I now carry mine so it fits under my arm fixed top and bottom. Stops it swinging in the way when doing things.

Anyway is that a pink shirt your wearing there Duncan.

What would be good is if someone could design a friction folder without a long tang.

 

[sargey]

this might be a little over budget....





but otherwise plus one on the mora.

25 quid will just about get you a classic in laminated steel, or two of most of the others! bargain!

cheers, and.

hmmm, 1st one is made in China which brings plenty of doubt into my mind regarding quality, second one says they only ship to the US
