Is there a Black Cold Steel OSS?

[Hamilton Felix]

My Beloved Kathleen would really like a Cold Steel OSS. I see it's available in AUS 8A and in San Mai III. I seem to have seen images, read mention of, a black Teflon finished OSS. I know Kathleen loves a black finish. Does such a critter exist?

There was a USA-made carbon V model, now discontinued. You can probably find one on ebay, though it might be unsharpened.

Yup.

Best bet is eBay for a used one in mint condition.

Use care when buying Cold Steel blades on eBay. Chinese suppliers there can be great sources of low cost items but unfortunately it seems like some of their best selling items are fake CS blades. Although some genuine CS blades are made in China, CS does not sell them from there. Pesonally, if I see a CS blade on eBay and the seller location is China, I assume it's a fake. And I am suspicious of all CS blades on eBay due to the large number of fakes being offerred for sale. I've gotten several discontinued Cold Steel blade styles through eBay to go in my collection. Some I had to pay a fortune for and others were bargains, but all of them were bought with lots of caution.
