I’m inAs some know, I have long awaited the release of the Spyderco Resilience in S35VN. Now that it is available from some American resellers, I asked in my shop thread if anyone would consider buying it, and prepping it appropriately for shipping to Canada, in exchange for an EDChef XL in 15N20 which I have on the bench at the time of this post. Anyway I received a few generous offers, includingjbmonkey who offered to buy the knife free and clear for me, and suggested I give the EDChef XL away as a giveaway. His message was preceded ever so slightly by another, so that didn't end up happening, HOWEVER, it is such a great idea and expression of kindness and generosity, that I told him I would do a giveaway, inspired by his generosity. Not one to be outdone, he offered to pay the full price of whatever knife I end up giving away, but in the end he relented and allowed me to pay half.
So with no further ado, I have settled on my choice for the giveaway knife. I will be making a 14" overall chef knife in 8670, with the "Micarta Madness" style handle like I did on these pieces. So basically burlap with black and natural canvas liners and natural pins.
Post here to enter the giveaway. I will draw a winner once the knife is made. That is your deadline to enter. No guarantees when that will be exactly, but I am going to try to do it soon. You have anywhere between 12 hours and 1 week to enter.
