Before making a purchase please read the terms at the bottom of this post.

For your reference, if you are unfamiliar with these knives and their relative sizes, you can see them here:

I am not looking for trades at this time. No really, please don't offer me trades :)

For size reference only, these are other knives of the same models in my collection, not the actual knives in this thread:

1 - Skookum Bush Tool (A2) (Orange G10) with Original Sheath $425 Sold

My absolute favorite knife in this size range. There is a reason that they are so very hard to find and have a 2-3+ year waiting list.

Very briefly and lightly used. Unsharpened.

There are a few spots and minor scratches on the blade.

2 - Dan Koster Bushcrafters, 3V (2009 model) $140 Each Sold

Unused, unsharpened.

I have bought many knives from Dan so he did me a special favor on this batch and he spent a lot of time softening the ridges on the handles and rounding them off to avoid hotspots from long term use. You will notice in the pictures that he handles are nicely rounded. At the time Dan said he liked the suggestion and might change all handles like this in future. I am not sure whether he did.

2a - Black G10 (The darker shade, solid black handle)
2b - Black Canvas Micarta (The lighter shade handle)

In comparison to the sharper edge on the standard 2009 model scales.

3a - Koster Wilderness & Survival Skills (WSS) (S90V, Silver Twill G10) with Original Koster Black Kydex Sheath $180
Sold
(The Silver Twill G10 was an $85 upgrade.) And it is a stunning looking material.

Unused, unsharpened.

3b - Koster Wilderness & Survival Skills (WSS) (3V, Natural Canvas Micarta) with homemade Green Kydex Sheath $95 Sold

Lightly used. I bought this knife from a previous owner and I do not know whether he sharpened it. I did not, but he might have but the edge is very sharp.

This one has scratches but it is mostly from the sheath as you will notice they are parallel to the edge, not perpendicular.

These little knives are fantastic in pocket little fixed blades.

Thank you and I agree with you. They are gorgeous and I have not seen any like them in all the years I have had them. Some eye candy for you :

i was ordering a custom knife a while back, and was debating on using orange g10 for the handles. that photo of your skookums is what made up my mind for me.
 
Replied, sent e-mail to wrong member. I swear, I've been a bit tech-impaired lately! Also, I'm sure LMT66 is very confused as to why he got an email about a SBT! :rolleyes:
 
3a - Koster Wilderness & Survival Skills (WSS) (S90V, Silver Twill G10) is Sold, Thank you.

Only the two Buschrafters left.
