So ... in the post for GAW 112 - waverave waverave expressed that it was getting a bit large and we may want to thin the heard. Once notified I would be the next recipient, I order two 18 knife protective cloth rolls to replace the zippered bag and the wooden box - 5 porch members were on-board with the change.

I also added the following knives:

-NIB Remington Bullet Hawkbill (the one that got away)
-Used but in great condition GEC 13
-New in Tin Case Mini Toothpick
-NIB Case Canoe
-Two obviously used vintage, and the show Electricians folders. Both are serviceable.
-Used but in great condition TwoSun folder
-Custom Folder made by "BogdanS" - https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/skiagusta-ti-workhorse-standard-thunderstorm-sold.2015729/

Everything fits into just one medium USPS fixed rate box now

FYI - if anyone would like the zippered bag that was retired - first to claim and pay $22~ for the medium box flat rate shipping gets it.
 
Love the cleanup and the additions! Always love watching the box go round and seeing how it evolves

Throw me on there this time. There are some cool things I'd love to check out. Thanks!
 
I'm not in, but I'm glad I logged on in time to see this round of the Giveaway.

Knife stuff in general has taken a back seat for me lately, and this tradition is one of the main things that keeps me coming back to the Forums these days. I love seeing the ongoing generosity. I love that the main struggle with this never-ending Giveaway is that the box keeps growing. I congratulate you on figuring out a way to grow the number of knives in the box to 42(!) while still condensing the haul into a smaller box.

I thought you selections were great (the same ones I would have picked if I had things of equal value I was willing to part with), and the additions are very tempting. I still think we are coming up on time to do a culling and splitting of the box again, but you managed to stave that moment off a little farther.
 
Actually, on second thought, I'm in.

On the one hand I am kind of hoping that I don't have to figure out which of my knives I'm willing to part with, but that Skiagusta is just too tempting.

Plus, my bag of knives I give to new archaeological techs is getting low. I just realized that I only have three left in the bag! The bag started when 315 315 split up the neverending box years ago, and I have been adding to it, but it has gotten depleted (a lot of our old techs at the museum moved on to grad school or private companies, so I've had to give out knives to a new crop of young archaeologists).
