How about a knife Donation thread to Fight the Folder Regulation Prop!
Just sent my letter off to DC, these guys are nuts...
I for one can and will donate a knife or two for this Forum to sell where and however they choose to fight the Ban on Assisted opening Folders.
IMO it does not have to be a Custom a New or near new Factory blade should be welcomed too.
As long as we know the $s will go directly for fighting this and no where else this is a No Brainer!
What do you SAY are we one on this issue?

another idea is to do a raffle of a blade ..

im not in a position to buy a high dollar knife, nor am i a good enough maker yet to sell something that someone would actually want to pay any money for ..

but i could give a buck or two into a raffle ..

and i think a lot of members would do that too ..

its a way of "donating" with the "chance" of getting something back ..

same thing with scales, bar stock, round stock , anything people might have extra .. throw up a raffle for it and send the funds to wherever the donation site is set up ..

also MAKE SURE YOU SET UP THE DONATION SITE CORRECTLY .. pay pal has frozen funds before for doing it wrong ..

If you do a raffle you must check with spark first I believe. I'd be in to enter a raffle just for the cause.

raffle sounds really good. lots can be raised on one knife, and no one has to fully pay for that one knife if they win it. talk to spark

Sorry all - Spark says no to the raffle idea.... So it would need to occur off this site and I don't know of anywhere else that has this exposure.....

As far as selling a knife to help the fund. Makers can put a knife on the for sale forum and donate the funds to the cause.
