Hey there everyone. I realize that I'm a new guy here but I really love the community. I guess I don't post a lot because I'm trying to still learn and get my feet wet. One thing I really love here is how generous everyone is. I don't have a lot of knives, but I do have three SAK's that I am not using since I've got my new bone handled Case Trapper. Here's what I would like to do. These past few weeks have been difficult for me as I've been thinking about my dad a lot. He died three years ago on the 1st of August. He meant a lot to me, and we had a lot of great times fishing, camping, and going on family vacations. I learned so much from him and just wish I would have had more time to spend with him as we got older. I would like for you to post a story or even just a short paragraph about a special time with you and your dad. You could even write about how much your dad means to you and why. On August 7th at 8PM I will stop accepting submissions. I will read through them all and pick my top 3. I have a Vic Classic, Vic Camper, and Vic Pocket Pal that I will give away to my three favorite posts. All I will need is your address and I will send you the SAK free. Thanks everyone.
 
I feel your pain. My dad passed away suddenly 10 years ago in May and I miss him each and every day.
He was a great teacher,source of inspiration and close confidant. I hope that now I can pass on some of his wisdom,work ethic and integrity down to my young son. To those whose fathers are still above ground, treasure your time together for it is fleeting. He was one of my closest friends until his untimely death and I am grateful for all the lessons learned,great times shared and memories created.I still have the SAK he gave me for my 10th birthday 40 +years ago and that is set aside for his grandson.
Thanks for your generosity as well Scottlaf.
 
This is not an entry, as I have more SAKs than I need already. Thanks for your generosity, and I am sorry for your loss.

I have already had 10 more years with my dad than he had with his. My grandad died rather unexpectedly at age 60, my dad turned 70 back in April (and I hit 50 in January). It is hard for me to isolate one special time, as he was very involved in my life as a boy. He taught me a lot about being a good dad, and my son is the beneficiary. On this past Father's Day my son was telling others about all the things he is thankful for about me and our relationship. As I listened to him I realized that so much of that is what I learned from my dad.

So, I guess I would say that I am thankful for the stable influence of a solid man, who has had a significant guiding hand in making me the man I am today. And, I am thankful for the friendship we have now. Even though we live 600 miles away from one another, we take every opportunity to be together, and thoroughly enjoy it when we do. Some of our best times are on the weekend we spend together at one round of the NCAA basketball tournament in March each year.
 
Really interested in the Camper.
Here is my entry. And thanks for the give away!

Me and my dad have grown apart over the years sadly, but I have had some really good times with him. There were times he would take me to the local card shops to check out the Pokemon and do trades, it was really cool because the owner was an older man and he loved to look at my cards. I remember when I saved up the money (a whopping $8) and bought my favorite card(a holographic Jolteon 1st ed.). My dad didn't get why I loved the cards so much but when he saw my face light up as we walked in that store and how happy I was when I got that card, he was happy too. It was awesome.

Him and his wife(evil step mom), run a church and I love to go to their little gatherings and help out. I like to collect the firewood, cut it if it needs it, light the fires, help him set things up, and talk to the different people that come(this church brings VERY different people). These people are always amazed because I seem to have a tool for everything. My dad laughs because he calls me the "helper". These are just fun times that other people would look at as just another day. For me it's another day with my dad.

I love my dad dearly.

Thanks again for the chance!
 
Very good giveaway idea! I'm late but I'll post anyway since only 3 people made posts.

Lucky for me I'm relatively young but my dad has 50 years on me... He is still alive and I love him to death! Just 3 days ago we went fishing and we each got five trout but the funniest damn thing ever happened! When we were getting off our little fishing boat he straight stacked into the lake!! hahha It was too funny.

But my best memory with him was once we were golfing and we wanted to see who could hit the golfball over this huge fence, and he got it first and he was boasting about it because he one the 20 dollar bet! then it smashed into the window of a Mercedes haha and we left so quick! good times.

I spend alot of time with my dad and will continue to do so untill his day comes, I've learned infinite things from him, he is an incredible human being. I kid you not I have never heard him get Super mad or shout at someone really bad. I wish I could be like him! I love him and cherish ever moment I spend with him.

Not an entry.

I'm sorry for your loss. Your dad raised a fine son.
When he sees your generosity I'm very sure he's very proud of you :)
 
2 months ago at late june, my father got stoke attack... he was paralized on the left side (cant feel his left arm and leg)...


he was a very2 active person with lots of hobbies, he still fine in the morning and on the afternoon he just cant get up from sitting, so i carry him to his bed room. after that things get worse and i bring him to hopital...

i cant work and practically have to quit my job so i can take care of my father, my mom was also shocked and i also got to take care of her to make sure she wont get sick becouse of the tiredness...

the worse part is my father got a pretty bad diabetic so he got phlibitis (vena infection becouse of the infus and injections) so his right arm swollen really big and he was in deep pain... i practically got to be his hands... i have to feed him and all the rest of the business about the restroom that you all guys knows...

the great part is he's now recovering... i got to give him insulin 3 times a day and he's doing some therapy so he would learn to walk again and use his very weak left arm but there's some light that someday he would recover..

some points i want to tell you guys are even in the very2 worst conditions,gratefull heart and counting blessings really help...
due to his stroke my father is very2 temperamental (due to his shock for the conditions) and he's always angry with me no matter what i did... to be honest if he got a gun i would have been shot to death...(no kidding)-- so i was in deep depresion due to the situations and financial problem to cover all the hospital, medical and home expenses.....


i know this can get worse... still i thank God for every things... at least i got the blessing where both my parents are still alive so i can do my best as a son to love them, take care of them and preciously spent time with them... i love my parents very2 much... my family are my treasures.. i'll do my very best for my part to take care of them all...


please spent time time for your love ones guys... give them a call.. have a chat.. give some kisses and hugs... dont learn the hard way... thank God that we still got them...



i'm very luck my father is still alive... no matter his condition, i will do my very best to make him proud...
