OK, the Random number generator pulled out a lucky number 7!!! Maverick299, you're the lucky winner! PM inbound!

Thanks for all the entries, everyone, and for all you contribute here at Bladeforums! I wish you all a safe and happy holiday season! :)


I've been the recipient of more than my fair share of generousity here, so I feel the need to host another giveaway. Up for grabs is this Case 6254 Trapper. This is the first Case I ever purchased, and I carried it off and on for several years. It's still in excellent shape, and veeeery sharp.

I'm opening this up to anyone interested in trying out a nice pattern, or simply adding this one to their collection. :D

A simple "I'm in." will suffice, but it's getting near the holiday season, so if you wouldn't mind, I'd like to hear a tale of any interesting or unusual holiday traditions that you might have in your family!

For instance, at Thanksgiving dinner each year, my mother puts gravy in a pitcher and puts it on the table. Not so unusual, right? Well, that pitcher looks like a cat wearing lederhosen, and the gravy pours out of its open mouth! :eek: Yup, we have a vomiting cat pitcher at the Thanksgiving table! :D

So let's hear what you have. I'll keep this open for around a week or until interest drops off. Winner will be selected by random number.

Thanks for entering, and thank you to all who make this place so wonderful! :)

Love the trapper pattern and I'm dying to get a look in at that case blue bone, I shouldn't enter having so recently won another GAW but I can't pass up the opportunity, I'm in!

Every year my grandmother has the tradition of getting completely plastered. My mother every year goes to great lengths to only serve her either non or low alcoholic drinks to prevent her overindulgence. Little does she know, as I found out last year, my grandmother carries a hip flask full of brandy wherever she goes, and hides wine bottles in the bathroom!
 
Wow what a beautiful trapper. "I'm in".
Well my Mom makes the best red velvet cake I have ever had. I mean...it's awesome. Every year of my life that I can remember, Mom made this cake and it was always one of the things I look forward to each year. Well fast forward 25 years and after I got married, my Mom let my wife know that she bought that cake every year. Oh well, it's funny now and The cake was good.
 
im in.and haven't won anything.
We as a Family share in the skinning/preparing of a deer and make Deer Chili.


delicious.
 
You're a very generous feller Dan :) Not an entry from me please, just a thank you for doing this, and wishing everyone Good Luck! :thumbup:

At my parents house, we used to follow the same routine every year - watching the food go cold while my mother spent 10 minutes taking a few photographs with an old Brownie camera held together with tape - I don't think she ever got one decent picture! :D
 
This a such a great knife, I won similar Case trapper from Will GAW recently, so not an entry please. Just want to say thank you.

I'm in for sure! Beautiful scales on that one! Told my mom when I was younger I actually liked her oyster dressing even though no one else could stomach it, INCLUDING ME!!!! She still makes just me and her some every year and I eat it because I couldnt bear to break her heart to this day! LOL! Thanks!
 
Wow, nice. I'm in. I don't have a case yet as I'm new to traditionals, but this looks awesome.

EDIT: Oops, not enough posts yet, sorry.
 
Please count me in. My Father used to do the Thanksgiving turkey for the family each year. After him passing I've taken over the tradition and having been doing the T-Day turkey for the past 36 years. The advent of the Butterball turkey along with the oven bag has made the job almost fool proof.

I don't have enough posts to enter, but I'll share a tradition for you to enjoy.
Every Thanksgiving, I work.
Every Thanksgiving, a customer tells me "Too bad you have to work today."
Every Thanksgiving, I respond to the above question with a "Yeah, well, people insist on shopping today so here I am."
Every Thanksgiving, I get a customer complaint.
 
I'm in, thanks! The only tradition that comes to mind is me having to get my wife's family their coats, because they don't know when to leave! Some of us have to work the next day. :(
 
I'm in. Our familay tradition is to break out any new instrument you have gotten:D Then an impromptu jam session ensues :)
 
Not an entry, because I know I wouldn't appreciate a trapper as much as many others do. But thanks, Dan, for your generosity and for thinking up the family holiday tradition theme! Some interesting and entertaining traditions. :D

We have the (fairly common) tradition of going out to cut down a Christmas tree on the Saturday following Thanksgiving. We also watch the same movies every year over the holidays: It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Story (and I'm trying to establish the tradition of watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but sometimes have to do that by myself).

I'm in! My son would love the blue bone--he's quite young, but I've started him early (basic whittling and campfire wood prep). As for Thanksgiving, my family (extended) gets together and, in addition to the traditional Thanksgiving day feast, there is a entire Greek food spread to go along with it. Man, people can hardly walk when the eating's done!
 
I'm in.
Every year on Thanksgiving I going hunting and my wife and son go to her family dinner.

When I was young many years ago on Thanksgiving my dad and uncles would rabbit hunt and me and my cousins would go with them, we got to carry any rabbits. I mostly deer hunt now but the old thoughts are there.

I'm in. Thanks for the GAW. No stories to tell but there's always a lot of over eating during the holidays. :fat:
