Hello all, I have a stack of card knives that survived the big fire a couple months ago. They are super rare Ti 8Mn alloy, an experimental remnant from a nuclear submarine project in the '60s. They retain the custom, one-off "inferno" finish left from the fire. They are being raffled off at the end of the week (probably Friday evening) for the kind souls who helped me get my blade operations going again after the fire's devastation. People who donated to the fundraiser that a customer set up for me, those who helped with equipment replacement or restoration, or those who helped in other ways are all encouraged to get in on the raffle. I figure there will be about a 1-in-3 chance to score one. They'll be sharpened this week before the drawing, but otherwise have been marked and minimally processed. The drawing will be held live on the instantgram linked in my signature. It will be announced a few hours before the drawing. No need to be there, I'll let you know if you won a card knife. If you're one of the ones who helped, just let me know in this thread and I'll add you to the bucket. Huge thanks to everyone who helped or gave encouragement during a pretty harsh time.
Glad you are making your way back. I contributed to the fundraiser and appreciate the opportunity at one of these "souvenirs".
Glad I could help in some small way. I donated to the fundraiser, and would love a chance at one of those cards. Thanks!
Glad everyone came together to help you out man. Im Sure all the winners will be super stoked to have some crazy TI fueled history.
It's not too late. YOU get a ti card knife! and YOU get a ti card knife! You ALL get ti card knives!* *If you win the raffle
Count me in also. Was glad to contribute to the rebuild effort, and am happy you are back on track. I hope your path forward is made easier by the collective efforts of the members here. I know many hold you in high esteem, and admire your progress. Good luck to everyone in the raffle!
These would have been super popular in the 80s! @Mecha I'm just posting a smartass comment, don't put my name in twice
A PHEONIX card " A new life by arising from the ashes " Count me in the drawing please, wish I could have done more for you Sam. Super happy to see ya back in the game.
If it isn't too late, I'd love to be in as well. And if it is too late...well...then I guess I waited too long to say anything. Either way, I'm happy I could help in anyway and I'm extremely excited to see what you come up with next.
