I was going to give this BladeForums 25th Anniversary Forum Knife #625E away to celebrate my 3000th post, but I didn't receive the knife in time. However, I think it's even better that it's going to be a Christmas 2023 giveaway knife!
This giveaway is open to anyone in the USA or Canada who is over 18 and legally allowed to receive this knife. Just post here in this thread saying "I'm in".
Then on Friday 12/22/23 sometime around 10:00PM I will use www.wheelofnames.com to pick a name. I will try to ship it on Saturday the 23rd if possible, so that I can focus on my family for the remainder of the holidays. (I'd thought about picking a name on Christmas Eve, but it will be too busy at home). If you cannot accept US Postal Priority Mail, I may be able to use a different carrier if you let me know when you win. I am not going to wipe the oil off, and it has only been opened just now for pics below. Good Luck!
** EDIT 12/18/23 **
So, here's the deal - I bought
Gary W. Graley
his own BF 25th anniversary Knife during the original round of orders, so he received #422 direct from Spark. But Gary wanted to pay it forward to someone else and sent it to me (I sent him something else to replace it, don't worry).
So, this giveaway is now two knives! I will draw two names, and then decide which one to send to whom, #625E and #422. THIS KNIFE FEELS LIKE GARY TOUCHED UP THE EDGE, so it will be 1st prize due to also being in the original SN set under 600.
** EDIT 12/19/23 **
Too Many Entries for just TWO knives. Now 3rd place gets a NIB Benchmade Proper in S30V and Micarta (unused and only handled for pics). This also has quite a good edge on it.
** EDIT 12/22/23 **
The linked video shows the order in which I spun the wheel of names (time stamp at top right).
Congrats to the following!!!
Winner #1 of BF Knife #422 - @pat9198 for @jmh33
Winner #2 of BF Knife #625E - @confucius37 for

Winner #3 of the Benchmade Proper - @.577NE for

Please PM me ASAP with Name, Address, Phone and Email, and whether USPS Priority Mail is okay, and if not which carrier is preferred. It would help to know if your address is home or a business (like don't ask for FedEx Home to go to a business).
If I have your info I can drop off the package before the 3PM Mtn time mail pickup Saturday the 23rd. Otherwise, it may not get picked up until 12/26/23.
