WINNERS ANNOUNCED - POST #80
Hi folks,
I have to be a wee bit careful in how I word this, I don't want this to be an attention thing to me, This is a massive thanks to you my friends here in Traditionals.
Recently I have been through a very scary,difficult health issue-as we all do in times of our lives, this is to say thank you for your kind messages, and to CELEBRATE, as I had the most outstanding great news yesterday from my specialist.
Cancer these days is in a part of everyones lives, if not yourselves, someone close to you, we unfortunately had Cancer visit my family, and it chose me.
Now at the other end of scans, tests, the fears that have taken my Family hostage, the procedures, and then the big operation. Well I am here, and I left my specialist office yesterday in the highest most thankful - probably stunned state, The Pathologists report came through very well, although I lost a decent part of my body, The cancer didn't try to spread any further at all, all test done of the Nodes and bits and pieces they pulled out are one of the higher rates of success they could give me, this means NO Chemo Therapy -Oh thank Goodness.
This is better than winning Lotto folks, although a few million with this news would have been gratefully received
So to Celebrate, I am gifting - as we all know it feels great to gift a knife.
Thank you everyone here, please, please put your name forward for one of these, and Celebrate having the wonderful life you have with your great Family - I always knew I was very lucky, but one horrible night I didn't realise just how good I had it.
So...please try to give a photo that maybe involves your partner holding your favourite knife-or a photo of something that just makes you feel like you are really alive - like a bush walk etc - Family, pets.
Please forgive me if this sounds silly, I don't mean it to be so
Here are the some knives up for grabs folks.
Here is a gunstock that I didn't know whether I could warm to the blade etch, but after help from our great members here, its one of the better etches that were used on blades of old!, also the jigged Bone is absolutely gob-stopping stunning - I LOVE this knife, and I want someone to also appreciate it's beauty.
I don't think its all that old at a guess I would say 70's - 80's it has Solingen in very small letters etched on the back of the main-very lightly like some of GEC's etching.
But its in Lovely condition!
Also I would like to add these as well, they are 70's Boker knives, these three are all in New condition as they came straight off a display card to me.
TL29 with real nice Saw-cut scales.
A real nice Camp Knife
Small Stockman
This will be given as a set to one winner,
Have fun folks, and once again thank you my friends.
