Hey y’all, hope everyone’s having a good start to the weekend! I received the box from
mbkr
this morning, and I’m spending the evening looking over the fine knives inside. Thanks to everyone involved for this awesome pass around!
Here’s the contents as they arrived:

Really cool soft case as well! I’ll update the thread with my takes/additions in a bit, but to get the ball rolling, here are the traditional rules as posted before me as well as the “rollover entries” so far!
Here are the rules:
I will draw a winner and send the box to them.
They will choose two, three, or however many knives.
They will replace the knives with some of their own (Case Knives Only).
They will hold their own drawing and pass the box on to the next person.
Porch Members Only!
Must have over 50 posts in the Traditional Knife Forum.
This rule must follow the box every time or John will call foul.
I will also keep it to CONUS only to save a bundle on shipping and massive paperwork.
By default, I am keeping in the running those that were in the last drawing. If you'd like to be added to the list, simply say "I'm in!" Likewise, if you are on the list and you do not want to be there, just let me know.

Here’s what I decided to take, the mini copperhead- because it’s a model I’ve wanted to try for a long time, and I’ve never had a wharncliffe this small before. The pen knife, for my brother who’s just starting to get into traditionals and I think he’s appreciate a small carbon steel slippy. Finally, I want this big jack knife- for a few reasons. One, it’s got the strongest snaps I’ve ever seen- it’s bad***! Two, it’s cut me every time I’ve opened it to look at it, so I almost feel like we have an ongoing relationship

What I added-
I threw in a black micarta tribal lock,
An older stainless steel executive, a CV slimline trapper and a full sized trapper. The slimline has a pretty good patina going from multiple picnic duties, but they are all functionally tip-top!

So here’s the current contents of the box in whole-

Ready to go out to the next guy!!
If there’s sufficient renewed interest, I’d like to keep this going til Wednesday, the 27th. However, if there doesn’t seem to be much activity, I don’t mind cutting it short and drawing Monday, the 25th, just to keep it moving quickly into the next winners hands! Let me know if y’all have any concerns, thanks!!
