Thank you so much for the chance to win this great prize. When I finish reading it I plan to pass it forward in the same manner. It would be cool to see it get passed around the sub forum. I sent you an email with my contact information.

Thanks again!

kleingra,

YOU'RE WELCOME. It was my pleasure to give it away.

I forgot to do this before I packed it up but I think it's a good idea. Write your name, the date, and the city you are in, in the top left corner of the cover. I should have put mine in there. Ronnie Hale - 09/14 - Houston.
As the book travels to the next user, they can see the history much like a great old traditional.
 
Hale Storm,

That was an awesome idea for a giveaway. Thanks again for the chance. Hopefully I'll win it when Kleingra is done with it. :D
 
Dan (Parke1) very kindly gifted me a copy of this book, and it's absolutely enthralling reading, some fantastic history. I really reccommend it :thumbup:

I would love to win that beautiful edition.

My father always carried a pocket knife. This one.



I won't go through it all again, I recently reviewed it here http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1218019-Always-had-an-Eye-for-this-one but I shall elaborate a little. I remember when I was a child, my father would pull it out of his pocket and use it for just about everything. I remember being handed it one Christmas to open presents with for the first time and my dismay at being unable to open it's extremely strongly sprung blades - dad had to do it for me. The sense of responsibility and adulthood that I associated with it. Carrying a knife like that meant that Dad was capable of anything. Mum was always saying; "Mike, cut that for me..." This weekend gone past, my old man gave it to me because he now struggles with the springs and favours a softer SAK. I'm so pleased.

I may have been a copper for years but now that I have it; I'm a big boy now.

Thanks for the opportunity,

Paul

I wonder if it ever went anywhere? I ordered another one recently. I was hoping to get this one back one day, only to sign it again, and pass it along. Maybe I'll get a second one and do a passaround and have everyone sign it?

Anyone interested?
 
Okay, I'm getting some positive vibes here. I'll get another one here shortly and we can do a passaround.
 
Great idea. I got a copy that's in my father's hands right now. I'm looking forward to reading it next time I'm visiting my folks.
 
Okay, so I got some responses from a new thread trying to find this one and the "book".

If you happen to be the guy who has it, could you send it back to me and we'll start another passaround, or you can start one, OR, if the book is now 'yours', which I completely understand, then I have a second one now at home and will start a pass around soon once we see if the original book shows up here or in the other thread.

Thanks BF.
