I am reporting Dan Koster to this forum's "Good, Bad and Ugly"...
In June of 2011, 7 Months after I placed the order for the Bushmasters, Koster posted this thread in his forum:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...veral-more-knife-runs-up-and-coming-next-week
which stated that he was taking orders for several more knife styles.
I had read in a previous complaint on Koster in the Good, Bad, Ugly where he clearly stated "For anyone looking for an outlet to vent your frustrations to me, my knives, my customer relations and so on...you are welcome to post in my forum - where you will get a prompt response. I do not lock threads, I do not squelch discussion, no matter how squeamish it makes me feel." http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...ience-with-Koster-Knives?highlight=Dan+Koster
So I did, I posted and asked him why he was taking entire orders on several knife styles when he refuses to deliver my last two knives as promised. Please keep in mind that I took this step only after attemping unsuccessfuly to resolve this issue through several emails, PM's and phone calls. Koster promptly erased my post, locked the thread and squelched discussion.

My position is that Koster's word is no good cut and dry. He tells me he will deliver my knives but never delivers them, he does not respond to phone calls, PM's and emails then when I am able to pin him down he makes excuses, promises to deliver the knives then once again does not come through. Now, as I suspected, he is working on a large order of knives that was placed 6 months after mine. All of my dealings with Koster from here on out will be made public in this forum untill I get my knives. Nacci.
