It has been a little while since we have done something to benefit little SuperBen Ruppe in his ongoing battle with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) that causes tumors to form throughout his body. Since I have been very blessed this year, I want to offer up a Christmas knife sale to benefit his cause.

The specifics on the knife are:

2015 0619 ?? – Bushfinger w/ black bolsters over Electric Plum burlap, 1/8” thick black liners, Tapered Tang, convex on 5/32” spalted O1 steel

This knife is in new and unused condition. I want this sale to be a win-win for both the buyer and SuperBen. The original price for this knife was $370. I am offering it for sale today for $Sold to Grunde01 which is almost a 25% savings for the buyer.

I will include domestic USPS Priority 2-Day Insured shipping.

To claim this knife, you must do all of the following:

1) Be the first to post a firm “I’ll take it” reply.
2) Send me a confirming PM with your name and shipping address.
3) Make the payment within 24 hours.

Please pay $285 directly to Ben Ruppe’s GoFundMe account located here:

http://www.gofundme.com/Bens-Fight-against-TSC

You can also make a cash donation there to support support SuperBen, even if you are not buying the knife.

Thanks and have a Merry Christmas!

I'll take it if shipping to Norway is OK (I'll off course pay the extra cost).

Hi Grunde,

Thank you for your interest in buying this knife to benefit SuperBen. Since you only have a free "Registered User" account on Blade Forums, I cannot send you a personal message (PM.) Please click on my screen name "Comprehensivist" and send me a "Visitor Message" to discuss the details of international shipping to Norway. I can reply to a Visitor Message from you.

Thanks,

Phil

I got to see Ben a few weeks back at his birthday party. He was crawling around and playing with new toys. I'm always amazed at how tough children are.
 
Comprehensivist and Grunde01 Thanks for supporting Ben!
 
Again,

thanks Phil for the generosity! The knife look fantastic, and I've payed $300 to SuperBen's fight. Hope we'll be able to sort out shipment to :-)

Best,
Grunde

You got it Grunde! Since you bumped up the contribution for SuperBen, I'll cover the extra cost to ship to Norway. I sent you a PM reply and E-mail with details.

Thanks for the update Andy. It is nice to hear that he has good days despite the TSC. He is surely a fighter.

I think that you will be very happy with the knife Grunde. It's the nicest Bushfinger I have owned.

Thanks again for supporting SuperBen's cause.

Wonderful gesture, guys!!!!!!!! What a beautiful Bushfinger!!! Great news about Ben!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
 
Way to bring in the holiday spirit Phil! Your generosity is an example for all is us!

I hope we can all follow your lead and give to someone in need this holiday season.
 
Phil, you are a class act! You have inspired me to get off my ass and do something for Ben and his family.

Obviously, folks can choose to donate their money wherever they want. However, we all spend a ton of $s on Andy's awesome knives, and Andy thinks that this is a good cause. With that in mind, I am going to support Ben and his family. I hope you will too. Between now and Christmas Eve, I will match any donation to the Super Ben Go Fund Me account up to a grand total of $100. Just post here, say how much you are donating, and I will match it.

Best wishes to all of you who are reading this. I look forward to waking up tomorrow to a bunch of posts in this forum.
 
Merry Christmas to Ben....I'm in for the other $50.

Let's keep this rolling !!!
