Anyone know how dense 1095 is compared to SR101? Sure don't. But since the difference in trace elements between alloys is minute compared to the primary ingredient of steel (iron), I wouldn't expect a whole lot of difference in density. That is exactly what I was thinking! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I think the real question is, "How much will you sweat on a neck knife while carrying it?" I do not normally consider a neck knife to be a valid option here in California as that is a potential way to get a felony. Statewide the only legal way to carry a fixed blade is on your waist openly. A neck knife even if not concealed violates this. It's stupid because I can carry a 3' sword on my hip legally, but a 1" neck knife is a felony. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> Yeah, yeah, I know you can't carry hardly anything, Bruce, but that's the peril of SoCal. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Good to know, Seth. I'll add that to the specs. Maybe Dan will chime in with the weight on the Scrapivore. For purposes of comparison, the Izula weighs 2.0 oz. Aye, and I currently use the Bark River Bravo Necker 2(3.5" 12C27 blade) as my EDC/trail knife. Which weighs 2.75oz with G-10 scales. Closer to 2.5oz with the Micarta scales. Whole lot more knife than the Izula, although not comfortable wrapped in Paracord like the Izula because of said tang sharp angles. Would love it if this new offering works comfortably with paracord and weighs in lower than the Izula, which while that has a great warranty, I have no doubt the Scrapivore can take a superior beating. Thanks for the welcome! I'm not sure how much of a beating you plan to expose your neck knife to, JD. But my guess is that both the Izula and the Scrapivore will hold up extremely well under normal use. Oh well, no doubt they will, although I have broken an Izula. I use my neck knife for pretty much everything I'm supposed to, and many of the things I'm not supposed to. Beating, prying, stabbing, point first batoning, flat-blade screw-driver, digging holes, etc.. The BravoNecker-2 seems to be taking the abuse quite well, but it sometimes just feels like I shouldn't be treating her like I do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> -Javan

Very well thought out design Dan. You sure do know how to make knives for those who actually want to USE them! Nice deep blade, thin, useable finger grove - rounded even (thank you!) full handle, and that pry bar butt seals the deal! Now I've got to unload all my extra SW's. Best design of the kins by far.
