Love the shot and beautiful knife
Thanks!

Thank you,how on earth didnt you get stung? 😊
You're welcome. They're actually pretty mellow once you get to know them. The bee breeder we got them from here in the U.S. looks for calmer traits in the bees. Kinda like with dog breeders, they look for specific traits in the separate hives whether or not to multiply that hive. I was cautious when we first got them but after being around them for awhile I rarely wear a suit anymore unless I'm doing a deep inspection of the hive. That seems to upset them some lol
 
Thank you to all who participated in the GAW! There were some outstanding pictures shared in this one.

The winner of the first knife, chosen by the popular vote of the porch, is kamagong kamagong , who was nominated by CelloDan CelloDan in his winning picture. CelloDan CelloDan also won the 1st GAW that I hosted last year. Some incredible photos!!

It is now 2024, and time for another photo contest giveaway. The rules are simple:

1. Please be an active member on the porch, let’s say 25 posts prior to entering the contest.
2. Post a picture that includes a traditional knife.
3. You may enter as many times as you like, but please limit your post to 1 picture per post so the votes can be properly accounted for. More than 1 picture per post will disqualify the post.
4. You may enter for another member, just say who you are entering for.
5. I will ship international as long as it is legal to do so.

There will be 2 knives in this giveaway. The winners will be decided 1st by the popular vote of the members of the porch. Whichever photo post receives the most “reactions” (likes, loves, etc) will be the 1st winner. A tie will be broken by most “wows” followed by most “loves.” So vote with your reactions.

The 2nd winner will be at my sole discretion based on whatever criteria I decide. Awesome knife, awesome background, humorous photo, whatever.

The winner of the popular vote will have their choice of the following knives:

The winner of my random judgement will receive the 2nd knife.

This competition will run through Sunday around noon EST. At this time I will count the votes and announce the winners.

Good luck and thanks for participating!
