2272 days. Just got my 3V SBT in yesterday after placing an order in early 2014. Good luck and long patience to those of you wanting one now.

I finally gave in and emailed Rod to put me on the waiting list... The Skookum is actually one of my grail knives I've been wanting forever. I tried to find it second hand to no avail... So I might as well wait. Thanks for the video

The Skookum was Mors idea for "Survival" knife design ( Prybar that works wood well). That's why you see the solid hammer on the end of the hadle. It's there to hammer tenpegs on the ground, to crush open nuts, even to break a window etc I wish all my outdoors knives had that, because it also provides handle longevity. All handles come apart or chip, from the back and their front part. That metal pomel, adds a lot to the knife. That's one of the many reasons, why TRC Mille Cuori, is my favorite knife and in my opinion, the best belt knife out there. Skookum is one of the best too, but it's mainly a survive in the woods knife, rather than a do it all knife, that other designs are. You're really lucky you own one, I'll probably never own it, because now takes more than 6 years to get 1 in your hands....Keep it and sharp and Enjoy!!!

Beautiful knife. Thanks for this review.

You can belt carry with that sheath. You loop the neck cord over and over to shorten it then through its own loop to attach to belt. It will be like a short dangler. In winter I often do a shoulder carry, if you're hiking all day the necker tucked between layers is a nice way to keep it put and you know where it is. You can always get kydex made for it or another leather.

I finally got one second hand. It's the best bushcraft knife I own and now my favorite..the only problem I have is the tip on mine keep slowly chipping away. Maybe I got one of the earlier batches were people complained about the tip. Maybe I should put a micro tanto tip on it like Mors did on his when his chipped. Mine is also in O1 tool steel with the brown micarta.

Great review!

awesome Jamie....

Possibly the best survival knife ever made.

No knife is worth waiting that long for. I blacksmith my own knives but if I didn't I would simply take this design to a knifemaker (easily found by googling) and commissioning from a custom maker. Really, no magic to a knife, just features and there are more than enough folks out there that can make exactly what you want for reasonable money.

So nice.

I have a longer lanyard and wear mine over the shoulder, with the sheath down just above waist level. It's very accessible there and gives discrete concealment under a jacket. It works better for me there than neck carry. I found by accident that the Casstrom axe loop is a perfect fit for the sheath and can be used as a 'frog' for carrying the SBT. I would probably lace a loop of paracord through one of the sheath eyelets and the belt loop of the Casstrom item for extra security.

I ordered mine in about 2014. Rod emailed me back like a month later and said I was in the books. Never heard anything else after that

Można samemu zrobić a nie czekać tyle. Nie trzeba mieć jakiegoś super wyposażonego warsztatu żeby zrobić tak prosty nóż.

There is really nothing special about this knife... Like you said, its just a good carving knife like so many others on the market. Too many people look for a do-all knife when they should really take multiples and use the right tool for the job!

Ive been on the list for about a year and a half now.

Any contact info for rob garcia ? Awesome knife and review 👍🏻🇺🇸
