A couple of Custom Shop SFNOs for your consideration....
The first person to post “I'll take it” without contingencies and a follow up e-mail will receive purchasing priority.
Please ask any questions prior to making a purchase commitment. My top priority is a hassle free transaction. I'll be more than happy to provide additional / higher resolution photos and discuss questions via PM, e-mail, or over the phone. I've done my best to accurately describe the condition of the knives I'm offering for sale, but there's always the issue of process variation and manufacturing tolerances inherent to this type of product so please inquire if there are issues of particular importance to you.
I will accept payment via USPS Money Order, or PayPal ("Purchase" type only, I will not accept PayPal Gift) with a confirmed address per the pricing listed. That being said, please be aware that if you have less then 5 positives as a buyer on itrader (or any negatives) I will prefer a US postal money order. I will ship via USPS w/signature confirmation and provide insurance to CONUS only.
I'm not interested in any trades at this time.
I reserve the right to not do business with any individual without explanation. All sales are “as is, where is” and without warranty (except as provided by the manufacturer). All sales are final. By purchasing this item you are stating that you are 18 years of age or older and abiding by all local, state and federal laws concerning the purchase, transportation and possession of this item.
Custom Shop Special Forces Natural Outlaws (SFNO): Snakeskin micarta handle, muddy coated blade with “teeth”. This knife is new, as received from the factory. It has not been used, sharpened, or inserted in a sheath. It's made from .220” stock, has a 7” blade and an OAL of 12.75”. This knife was a Blade Show West / “Left Overganzaaaa” special in 2006 and sold for $597 plus shipping. I'm offering it for less than the factory price shipped to your door: $550 USPS MO / $570 PayPal
Busse Custom Shop Santa's Outlaw Wicked (SOW) SFNO Variant: This was a highly sought after Christmas 2006 Ganza offering. Here are a few forum posts that describe this knife quite well:
Jerry on 12/24/06: “This is it Boys. Come and get the hottest Natural Outlaw Variant to come out of the Busse Custom Shop in years.... Price is $697”
resinguy on 7/28/07: “Here is the original Santa's Outlaw Wicked variant. They are ground off SFNO blanks, but have some distal taper, while the SFNO is full thickness most of the length. The distal taper makes the SOW quicker handling, more like a fighter”
Jaxx on 11/5/12: “Yeah, I know that it doesn't seem to look like it should cost that much...but it really is a sexy variant. A lot of time & effort by the Crew went into these. It has a nice distal taper, a really nice sharp recurve v grind edge, beautiful FFG satin finish, and you can't really see on the flat where the taper begins in the finish. Plus a light swedge, and at the time Red G-10 was not offered much at all outside of the 2 GW's from the Game Warden lineup. Even with all of this into each one, its popularity so far has never took off outside & after the initial offering.... Like the Team Gemini, this is another knife that I loved and praised well before it has yet to increase in popularity... Maybe I should send one of mine to the crew of The Walking Dead!”
This knife is new, as received from the factory. It has not been used, sharpened, or inserted in a sheath. As stated above this knife is ground from an SFNO blank so it's .220” thick but the blade and OAL is about .25” shorter at 6.75” and 12.5” respectively. As stated above this knife sold for $697 plus shipping. I'm offering it for less than the factory price shipped to your door: $650 USPS MO / $670 PayPal SPF
