Saw this and thought it was kind of neat so I picked it up. Thought I would share some pictures.

Blade length?
3 1/2" I think.
What's the comparison to the Izula ?
The handle is identical. The blade is half an inch longer. Price was under $50. I picked it up because I thought it would be handy for preparing meals around camp.
Where'd you get it?
My favorite local source for quality knives. Rapid Fire Bunker.
The Becker Necker is one of my favorite blades. I might have to try the hybrid.
Yep. It's pretty much the Necker with an Izula handle.Quote:

How far can you throw it though?
Further than I can throw you but not as far as I can throw a baseball.Quote:

That's way cool!
I was (this) close to swinging in today! Was In the neighbor. Actually wanted to see if they had an izula in stock.
It's a cool store for what it is. The people there are really nice. I don't remember seeing an Izula last time I was in there but I wasn't really looking for one either.Quote:

I put my name on a list so they will call me when they get some more Tops B.O.B knives in.
I leave next week to go out of town for two weeks. That's probably when they will get some in. [facepalm]
Is the blade thickness the same as the Izulu? I found the Izulu too thick for its blade shape.
Yes, it's the same thickness. "Bushcraft" type knives need to be durable.Quote:

I like that. Seems like a very ideal size. I'll have to look into getting one. LOVE my Izula so far. Wish I could find more use for it. I'm sure I'll be able to find some work for it.
The Izula is well suited to skinning small game and other intricate tasks. I think the Eskabar is going to be better suited for general camp use and cooking.
We'll see.
NAW GO JUNGLAS !!! Perfect for dicing a moose,cutting down a forest,beheading zombies. Yet still being a subtle accessory for the tactical butcher. [werdo]Quote:
