Howdy folks,
Not looking for trades, I have too many knives and mounting medical expenses.
Post "I'll take it" here on the thread for anything you want, in addition to PMing or emailing me through the forum.
Prices include shipping/insurance to anywhere in the US. Payment by paypal (I'll eat the fees) or USPS money order. Additional shipping charges for International, and (of course) only limited shipping insurance available. I WILL NOT lie on a customs form--if you can't legally have something, don't buy it.
I'm frequently in buildings with no outside internet access--if you don't hear from me immediately don't worry, if you were the first take something on the thread then it's yours.
Please carefully inspect knives upon receiving them. I try to be meticulous about finding flaws, but if I miss something, let me know immediately, and we can talk about either an adjustment to the price if you still want it, or a complete refund in addition to me covering the return shipping. My reputation is important to me, and I'll never try to slip anything by you.
Here we go!
Dan Koster WSK--$275 Unused, 1/4" thick 5160 with bead blast/tumbled finish and kydex sheath. 8.5" blade, about 14" overall. Some minor scratches from sheath. I have another that I've used--this is a far more effective chopper than the typical tracker/wsk.
Dan Koster Survivor (original pattern)-$275 unused, 1/4"+ thick satin A2 steel with green canvas micarta handles and absolutely wonderful Okuden (Brian Wagner) sheath. 9" blade, 15.75" overall. Brian's kydex is second to none--this knife has been in and out of the sheath many times, no scratches on the blade AT ALL. Minor darkening of micarta from handling...if it's really important to you, a WD-40 scrub will return it to perfectly green.
Big Chris GROB--$365 Unused, 0.280" thick 3V blade, 10.1" blade length, 18" overall length, flat grind to convex edge. Black canvas micarta scales with stainless tubes. Digital urban camo kydex sheath by maker. I have cut a couple of watermelons in half with this knife, the momentum you get swinging from the back of the handle is insane! Long handle counterbalances the blade nicely--it's actually very neutral and lively when choked up towards the front. There are very shallow scratches from the sheath on the blade, I tried to get a shot but it's hard to focus on. There is a tiny imperfection near the tip--it came like this from the maker, the watermelons didn't chip it.
Big Chris Barong--$295 Unused SPF, 0.145" thick 3V blade, 12.5" blade length, 18" OAL. Flat saber grind into convex edge. Canvas Micarta scales, kydex sheath by maker. Small marks from sheath on blade.
