OK, so back at the end of December, I got the never ending giveaway box! It was the first GAW I ever won!
I ended up snagging a couple of little knives. A case peanut in pocket worn red bone was the highlight, but I also grabbed an older Sears branded peanut sized knife as well and a similar Old Timer. Those really rounded out the collection very nicely in the "small knife" category. I also snagged the Vic SAK that Neal stuck in the box. It's been in my desk at my new job and comes out a few times a week to tighten this, cut that, open something else, etc...
So now, here's what we've got!
There's a nice old straight razor, a couple of no-name older slipjoints with a load of life left in 'em.
The "name brand" stuff is a Case Sodbuster jr, and a Case Stockman. There are a couple Rough Riders, a Falcon stiletto, couple of sharpening stones, woodworker's tool, etc...
My contributions were a Buck 371, Case Slimline Trapper in brown synthetic (I carried it a couple times and might have opened a package or two. It would pass for new), and a vintage Camco TL29 that'll need a just a little elbow grease (blades are tough to pull out) but should make great fodder for an easy restoration project... Chances are you soak the pivot in oil, and they smooth out nicely. I just wanted to contribute an easy project to the box.
I also managed to fit (dont ask me how. This is some serious knife Tetris) a brand new in package Lansky hone for anyone who has a Lanky sharpening system.
OK so let's run this GAW until 11:59pm (2359hrs) this coming Sunday 02/25/18.
GAW is open to all US residents. Get those names in!
