Skookum Bushtool

[Fjellstorm]

Hey guys!

I am looking for a Skookum bushtool made by Rod Garcia. Hard to come by I know but maybe someone would part with his knife?

Can be used or new

Regards

Having had a skookum, [which regularly go for $500 these days] and a rob evans bushtool. I would say I ever so slightly prefer the dimensions of the RE Bushtool. I've always preferred this shape over the drop point. They're both like Puukkos on steroids.

Agree with dave, unless you are a collector and need that skookum then a bushtool makes far more sense

I think Noddy sells a well used one over @ edgematters.uk..

Another vote here for Rob Evans version...superb

Are they still made by Mr.Evans?

BTW. Still looking for the Skookum if anybody has one left

I placed my order for an A2 Skookum in march 2014, so normally with 45 months back log, I should receive it by the end of the year.
Also my longest wait I think for a knife.

I thought the 18 months i once waited was an eternity.......45 months! Damn!

I'd suggest you wait for Rob Evans to get sorted - shorter wait than the US version, cheaper than the US version, and, by many accounts, better than the US version [I haven't used a Garcia version, but have read the reviews and am a keen RE Bushtool brandisher].

Just my 2d worth. Good luck with the quest.
