Hadn't been back to this subforum for awhile
I got it from a very nice husband and wife dealer at a gun show (they do that for a living, not just some weekends). $50 plus tax (no shipping - obviously), regular handle. It seemed like a better knife AND $10 less than the other big name brand similar neck knife for sale beside it (brand escapes me at the moment)
JShirley, I don't understand what you mean? I'm not that well-versed in edged weapons. Maybe someone could enlighten me, but I got the knife to use in situations as an emergency defense tool, where I'm out in public, but have no pockets or other place to put a gun or folding knife - say, I'm just wearing shorts without pockets and a t-shirt. Is this considered the primary purpose of neck knives, or are they considered more all-purpose? This particular knife does not have a long enough blade to be an all-purpose knife, but it's quick to pull out in a pinch once you get your hand under your shirt, and the cloth-covered link chain is not nearly as strong as nylon, which is a good thing, not a bad thing, so that it cannot be used as a weapon against you (a garrote of sorts); rather it will break.
