Hello folks,

Please excuse the delay in getting this back up and running, but back up and running we are! I was lucky enough to win the previous round of the never ending giveaway and made off with some very nice knives. A sincere thank you to whomever put those knives and the others into the box.

This is Round 6 of a creative GAW/Passaround/TravelingSwapMeet started by mrknife back in July.

I've copied,pasted and edited much of what's been already posted and the Frankenstein-ian text appears below. - stolen again, this time from Neko.

rye_a was the lucky winner of Round 1. He selected a Hen and Rooster coffin jack as his prize, replaced it with a Case Sodbuster Jr, and started Round 2 in August.
5K Qs was the lucky winner of Round 2. He selected a Case Sodbuster Jr and added a Victorinox Hardwood Spartan and a Rough Rider Stag Canoe.
kysteve was the lucky winner of round 3. He added a Taylor Schrade single blade sheepsfoot electricians knife/pruner and a Marbles TL-29 style electrician knife.
Neko was the lucky winner of Round 4. He chose the Rough Rider Stag Canoe, Schatt and Morgan and Rough Rider Coke Bottle and added a Rough Rider Dogleg Jack with sheath, Rough Rider sawcut peanut, Imperial Kamp King and a Case Medium Executive to the box.
I was the winner of round 5. I chose a A Wright and Sons single blade with bail, a little Case Executive and a Victorinox Wood Spartan. To the box I've added an Anvil brand Barlow, a Little Buck Toothpick and the ever sought after, but rarely seen Bobbitt's Weenie Whacker! I've also added in some White and Green stropping compound from Stropman in case someone down the line is in need.

In addition the next winner will also get one free knife sharpening of their choice. Should the winner not need or want to make use of my services, you're more than welcome to pass it on down the line with the box.

To the knives:

Anyone who entered Round 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 (and didn't win) is automatically entered in this round without having to re-post (unless you went missing from the list... :foot:). They are listed below with their numbers for the random drawing. New entries will be assigned (their post number) + 28 as their numbers for the drawing (since I think we lost a few along the way).
I see no reason that past winners couldn't hop back on if they wanted and have something new to share.

Here's the rules from the original post by Mr. Knife.

Doing another GAW but this one is a little different. I'd sort of like this to be more of a pass around/pay it forward.

Im going to put all of these in a box and ship to one winner. They may not like all the knives in there or they may. If they do, the giveaway ends there I suppose. But if they don't, I hope they swap the knife they want for a knife or knives they have in their collection that they'd like to pass on to some one else who may find it more enjoyable via a similar giveaway. It'll be on an honor system and I have faith in all of you It's a variety pack of knives in different costs, so I'm sure everyone will get something they enjoy and want to give a new home.

In order to be considered, please fulfill any of these conditions:
1. be a known member of the Porch (at least a decent amount of meaningful contribution via content or conversation)
2. have donated to the St.Judes Charities/or Bob (hang in there buddy, hope you are doing ok!)
3. have done any sort of giveaway


Just say "I'm in" to be added to the list.
If you want to tell us all which knives you're pining for and what you'd toss in the box as a replacement then have at it. It's a good way to keep the thread going and garner more interest.

Glad to see this back up!
Not an entry since I just won and don't need my knives back;)

Free bump though!
 
Thanks for getting this up and running again, Bryce. :cool:
I think mrknife's original idea was creative, and kind of a community-building activity.
Sounds like you scored some good knives when the box came to you! :thumbup:
I especially like your addition of some stropping compound and a knife-sharpening.
Good luck to all the participants. :D

And the winner is... as selected at random by my 5 yr old: #8 GASOUTHERNBOY.

GASOUTHERNBOY please send me an email with your address and I'll get the box shipped out. In the event that I don't hear from you by 8am CST on Wednesday a new winner will be selected.

Thanks again to all participants and to MrKnife.
 
Congratulations GASOUTHERNBOY!

I look forward to seeing what changes you make to the box when you fire it up again.
 
Excellent Bryce :thumbup: and congrats to GASOUTHERNBOY. Can't wait to see where these knives go next. Jack thanks again for starting this fun GAW,

Thanks, Neal

A little busy, a little scatter brained. Neko and Randy were there to prod me into action though. They deserve thanks as well. Thanks fellas!

I've posted a VM on his profile page. Hopefully he'll see it, but I'm not counting on it. Last activity was nearly a month ago. We'll redraw if he doesn't respond by Wednesday morning.
 
Still no response from GASOUTHERNBOY, so on to drawing #2.

And the winner is... #24 - SVTFreak.

Please send me a PM or an email with your shipping info by Friday morning.
 
Congratulations Joey :thumbup: And again Thanks T. L. E. Sharp. I hope all is well with GASOUTHERNBOY.
