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="" />
