11 Quick-Draw Neck Knives For Everyday Carry

May 7, 2016 by The Loadout Room Leave a Comment

In recent years, the popularity of neck knives has grown exponentially, that is, small, sturdy fixed blades that hang from the neck on a sheath suspended from a cord or chain in the tip-up position.

Drawn with one hand, neck knives offer the sturdiness and versatility of a fixed-blade knife and the convenience and portability of a folder. They can be designed for defense, utility or both, and are equally adept at both.

But if you have a wickedly sharp edge, a small blade is all you need to accomplish almost any cutting task, and it can be plenty to defend yourself in dire circumstances.
