Congradulations! Their customer service is top-notch, and their knives are an excellent value.

So... what did you win?

Bob,
I must have been fixing the photo when you posted. They even put my initals on it, I thought it was a nice touch. They called it a grab bag knife, so it didn't have a model number. Its a drop point hunter model, about the size I would have picked out myself.

Really nice, and very generous of them, giving a knife away every month.

 

[Bob W]

Very nice! I love the handle shape and the spine filework. Integrating your initials into the etching was very clever of them.

You've probably seen it, but here is my Anza in The Gallery:

I had to pay for mine though...

Best Wishes,

congrats--
I think that their knives are one of the best values out there, and they are a great company to deal with.

Congratulations, sharper!!

I've had Charlie make a couple for me as well. A really cool kitchen slicing/butcher style is my favorite.

A couple of years ago I won this knife pictured below from Charlie.....

It weighs 3 1/2 pounds and is about 22" long.......

sweet, I just entered their July contest and emailed them about the possibility of making me a custom knife in the future. They seem like a really great company. El Lobo how bout some pics of that one out of the sheath, that looks like a wicked field knife.

They also provided and gave away a passaround knife a coupel of years ago. f you're a fixed blade, carbon steel fan, they're a good deal.

Actually Sharper is passing one around now:

If this one is closed, I'd be happy to send the one I won out on passaround:

lagarto,

I don't have many pictures of the ANZA, but here is one more for SIZE reference. It's really a display piece....it's alot like a small broadsword...

Not intending to hijack sharper's thread....just showing what Charlie can do.

Bob,
I hadn't seen your knife, so I used your link. I like that one alot.

El Lobo,
Thats perfectly alright. I started the thread more to get Anza Knives a little more attention and to show off the fine work they do. So everyone is welcome to post thier pics in the thread. I like your knife alot also.

Dave,
The passaround is still open to anyone who would like to try the Bodddington.
