I have been lusting for one forever and finally found one on the secondary market. It arrived last night, and I must say i am impressed. The craftsmanship is flawless and the cutting ability is awesome! Has one of the sharpest spines I have ever touched! Pics to follow.

Is this the king of bushcraft blades? Is there such a thing (not really), but I like to think so. :)
 
Lots of knives are good but I have to say it's one blade that when I got it I could find no flaws or imperfections to speak of with and that's unusual for me.
 
Maybe we could do a SBT picture thread? Lots of variations?

Mine came with a flaw on the tip and a few scratches from the sheath and i DID not care! This baby will be a user. I waited two and a half years for it, well worth the wait, IMHO.
 
Love the pics! I hope to snag one of these some day. Even though I wouldn't really pound with it, I really like that butt plate, makes it very distinctive too :thumbup:
 
Glad you were able to get one Panzer!

Here is another O1/Green combo sans forward tube and shear hole.

Nice looking knives guys! I am nearing the end of my wait for mine. I got on the waiting list two years ago for one and I should have it in June or July. Very excited to have it in my hands!
 
Think ill be takeing my skookum to Alaska in Aug. when i go on vacation. i really love mine its a awsome blade

 
I just worked one in a trade and should have it in about 48 hours. The skookum is on my short list, an ML Kephart is on that list as well. I think the Skookum should fit my needs well.
 
Here's mine.
Love it. A2 steel.
This was from the first year he made them I think...or at least right after the Tactical knives article that went viral!
I called right after I read the article, and ordered 2. I should have kept the other. Back then, I waited 9 months. I know Hollowdweller had his when I ordered mine, or not long after.

I had wanted one of these way back when I first read about them but I never ordered. Now this thread has me needing one again!
 
I ordered mine a couple of weeks from when that Tactical Knives article came out. I waited almost 2 years to the day of ordering to get mine. I should have ordered 2 !
Mine's in A2/red linen
