I just ordered a K4 Neck Knife (and a Cold Steel Shovel - Search for the "Car Shovel" thread). Yay! I ordered the knife for picnicking more than anything else. Anyone else have one, a K4 that is?

I bought a few of them about 6 months ago. They aren't bad little blades. They are thin and make good cheese slicers. They come from the factory surprisingly sharp. The sheath is remarkable.

I've picked up quite a bit of Cold Steel in the past year. It seems they are the only ones who produce certain styles of knives that I am looking for. I wait for when they go on sale or have seconds or closeouts. For Christmas I picked up a couple of their $300+ swords for $99 a piece. When I got them, I was duly impressed. Their plastic knives are also surprisingly durable and functional.

Busse knives are still my favorite, but Cold Steel does a pretty good job with what they have.
