K3 Karda - Redwood, Olive or Corian

Daniel Koster · Nov 3, 2005

See more pics/specs at http://www.kosterknives.com/kardas.htm

Made from 5/32" thick O-1 barstock.

Three up for grabs and priced to move. Take a look:

The sheaths are all set up to match with a TekLok - both regular and IWB clip (highly recommended). Neck carry is also fine.

Price is $SOLD shipped ConUS

Add $10 for a TekLok

Corian handle.

Stabilized Olive Wood (has a great smell and very nice grain)

Stabilized Redwood

Naturally very waxy wood. Even though it is stabilized, it has a very nice smell to it. Wonderful piece of wood. Very difficult to work, but outstanding results.

And for your viewing pleasure....a few paper cutting videos:

Nice looking little fellas!! Got a couple of questions/comments:

1. The second link isn't working for me. Not sure if that's the situation for everybody.

2. What steel are these made from? That first link says of the kardas, "The blades can be made of 5160, 1095 or O-1 - your choice." So I'm not sure what these are.

BTW, nicely lit and well composed photos. Way to go!

Thanks, RokJok!

I edited the first post. They are made of O-1.

The photos in the first link indicate that this is the K2 Karda. Typo?

The second link fails for me as well.

How long are the blade/ total knife length? Very pretty work.

Daniel Koster · Nov 3, 2005

gaj999 - LOL!! Sure enough, these are indeed K2 Kardas....whadda night...one eye on the computer, the other on my 3 boys trying to destroy the house while Mom is out....

Blade length is 3 inches (sharpened part) - to fit most states' carry laws. Overall length is around 7.5 inches.
