As mentioned this is the raffle thread for the beautiful Dragon Knife from Uncle Bill's personal collection.
It was brought to my attention we lost the reason for this raffle when we went from sale to raffle.
A kami was injured and healing well but still has medical bills coming, and Kumars wife had a surgery and also needs some help. The proceeds of this raffle and perhaps more to come will help them with their expenses.
A genuine worthy cause.
Overall length --15''
Weight --21 oz
Eight auspicious sing engrave one one side of blade
Twin dragon, full moon and cross flag engraved on other side of blade
Single dragon, lotus flower and shell carved on water buffalo bone handle
Brass decorative leather sheath
Amazing work by Vojpur craftsman
Hope I remember how to work this best but here's how it works.
Just make a post I'm in for however many chances you want to buy.
Chances will be 50 dollars each. (left this part out earlier, sorry)
Then PayPal Yangdu the money like your buying a knife.
If you want to remain anonymous that's ok, just email Yangdu and/or myself and I'll add you to the list.
Apparently PayPal does not like the word raffle so just call it a chance on the Dragon Knife.
Yangdu and I will compare notes regularly to make sure everyone who pays is on the list.
As soon as we sell the 15 chances, I'll do the drawing and let everybody know. Lets try to make all this happen quickly as the kami's are in need so sooner the better on getting them funds.
I'll see if I can migrate Yangdu's pictures into this thread or see if she can if I fail, I'm not the brightest lighthouse in the swamp when it comes to computer stuff ya know?
Let the games begin.
