I am still fairly new to the board and the porch here. One thing that immediately stood out to me is how connected and generous the members are in this section of the forum. Not long ago I was surprised with a knife as a runner up to a gaw, a nice Buck 301. Since then I knew I needed to return the favor. For two reasons: one being to return the generosity, and two because the Buck replaced this knife. I thought 100 posts was as good a time to do this as any!

This Case Medium stockman in what I believe is sawcut antique bone was what I chose to whittle with. There are several things about this knife that just didn't work out for me so I'm here to pass it on. It's not been used or carried much. There is slight blade rub on the sheepsfoot. And it also came without a box.

Open to everyone. I like the gaws that tell us about yourself. To enter, please list your profession. If you're retired, you can't enter! I will let this run for a week (midnight CST on 3/7) before I use a random number generator.


Kidding of course

Thank you for the generous opportunity! I'm an editor/writer by trade, but unfortunately "between opportunities" as they say.

Hi greentrout, cool idea mate! I am a teacher by profession. I have been into knives for years but just entering the world of traditional knives so I am excited about it all. I am in. Good luck to all!
 
Ooh, love me some saw cut bone and I don't currently own a Case, so I'm in! I'm an electromechanical service engineer and an aspiring author.
 
I love those scales. Very nice of you to offer it up. I'm a parts advisor at a car dealership (SUV's actually) during the day and I work in a furniture store warehouse at night and on Saturdays. Saturday night and Sunday I'm Super Dad, husband and mr. fix it...
 
Interesting idea for your entry method!
I started out as an earth science and IPC teacher and am now the director of an alternative campus.
 
Thanks for the chance! I do in house marketing and graphic design work.
 
Thanks for the generous GAW, greentrout! :thumbup::thumbup:
A Case medium stockman with round bolsters, slender clip, and nearly sunk joints is VERY appealing to me! :cool:
I'm in, please.
I've been teaching college math and training prospective elementary, middle, and high school math teachers since 1973. I've been at my current employer since 1984.
Good luck to all the entrants! :D

Very nice of you, I'm in! I have had quite a few different jobs over the years, but right now I've been a movie theator manager for a large multiplex for the last 8 years.
 
Thanks for the chance, I'm in. I'm a customer service representative for a local cell provider, which means I spend all day saying "have you tried turning it off and on again?"
