I made this little necker out of scrap left over from a previous knife.

Very cool!

You said it was a necker –– got a sheath for it? Pics?

Thanks for the compliments!

The overall length is 5" and the exposed blade length 1 5/8" long and the actual cutting edge is 1.75" long.

I haven't made a sheath yet. To be honest I'm not sure what I'm going to make for it as far as a sheat is concerned.

Here is a pic to give you a better idea of the size.

Maybe a colour matched Kydex would look nice?

Or a very light tan leather, maybe a rayskin or snake or other exotic possibly??...it's cute for a scrap bin project, so spoil it with a better than average scabbard/sheath

Hell, I'd be in the market for one of those with a good neck sheath. What's it weigh, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm smitten!

According to our Mail Scale at work it is just under 3oz without the sheath. If I were to make these to sell these I would probably drill more holes under the scales and shave a bit more weight off. This particular knife is solid steel with the exception of the two pin holes and one thong hole. There is still quite a bit of steel that could be hollowed out of the handle.
