Hi Guys,

I have a pair of Koster K-Tusks, an original style tanto design in O-1, and a 2nd generation spear point style with a unique copper coated S30V blade. Both have Kydex sheaths with Tek-Loks, and the 2nd gen knife also comes with a handmade leather sheath:

2. 3" blade, 5/32" S30V. OAL ~6.5" 4.8 oz. Koster K-Tusk Spear Point style blade with unique copper coated blade, polished green micarta scales w/ 3 brass Corby bolts and red liners; kydex sheath with Tek-Lok and extra leather sheath - $235 Shipped & Insured ($25 less than paid.)

#1 has been carried and very lightly used. #2 is unused as shipped.

I'm also selling a sweet little Koster K4 Karda in Cocobolo, that is currently setup for neck carry in a kydex sheath. This one has seen very light use only.

PayPal preferred to n-l-morris@sbcglobal.net, and I'll pay the fees. If OCONUS I'll pay the 4% PP fee, but you'll have to cover the shipping & insurance.

Thanks for looking.

I'll take K-tusk #1 if it is a stainless steel variety? Please advise on the steel types for these blades, I may still take it if it is O1 as well.

Thanks....
 
Doh! sorry, should have included that obvious information! I'll amend the post...

#1 is 5/32" O-1 tool steel, hardened to around 60-61, while #2 is S30V.

#3 is 5/32" O-1 tool steel, hollow ground and very sharp, hardened to around 60.
