Great giveaway, Jack. Fun to see what was behind some of the mystery drawers. Congratulations Ted!
 
Thanks a lot folks, always a pleasure to be able to give a little something back in this fine and generous place :)

Wow, very cool Jack, I'm excited, the small Sheffield with the bottle opener and corkscrew looks just like a Camco I have, :).

The Orange Hawkbill will work great in the woods in my backyard, in always cutting the wild roses and flowers for my wife, small vines that started choking out my blackberry bushes. :)

I collect turtles since I was a kid in school and the mean little kids nicknamed me teddy turtle :) that nickname still sticks but now they call me that because when ever I do a job it takes me forever but when I'm done is perfect, (I may be sure but I only have to do it once and it's done right :).

And what can I say about the pearl, my birth stone is pearl so I've always loved any MOP handled knives.

Thank you so much Jack my friend you are so generous and give so much to this community, I always look forward to your posts, pics and anecdotes. Let's not forget your great giveaways, you have the most creative giveaways on the Traditional's forum.

Jack, fret not, they come to a good home where they will be used and carried, being semi retired I have the opportunity to change the knives I use and carry several times a day so it's not unusual for me to use 10 different knives throughout the day.

Sorry to the members that didn't get picked, (keep your eyes open, I'm still putting together a giveaway for my 15,000 post, just been busy with old people stuff like docs and therapy :) )

Jack, I'll shoot you my address in a few minutes. Thank you again. :)

I'm so glad that it worked out well for you Ted, and it's really an honour to be able to send you something. Those Ibberson's Hawkbills are good working knives, and it's great that that you'll be able to put it to such good use. I'm sure they've all found a good home with you my friend :)

Here's a little Schrade CUTCO Walden NY Ring Opener, (I'm guessing it's from around the 30s-50s) I bought sometime ago, IIRC I picked it up for under $10 at an estate auction.

That's a classic Ted :thumbup:

Ted, I just realised that all four knives are stainless, so since you mentioned a ring-opener, I'll throw in one in carbon steel too.

Doh! No, the MOP penknife is carbon. Ted, I have two ring-openers, would you like a Joseph Fenton & Sons model in carbon or a generic Sheffield-made one in stainless? :)

Jack
 
My other ring opener are carbon steel so the Joseph Fenton & Sons would fit in well with the others.

Looking forward to the package Jack, thanks so much, you give so much here between pics, posts and giveaways your karma level must be overflowing. Always a pleasure talking on the forum my friend, thank you again. :) :thumbup:
 
For me, the Fenton is certainly the one to have Ted, and I figured it would be the one for you too. Thanks for the kind words my friend, it's really a pleasure to be part of such a fine company of people as we have here :)
 
Wonderful Jack!
Congrats to the winners.
 
Great GAW and congrats! My granddad gave me a knife nearly identical to that black one from drawer 13!
 
Thank you 6 and 12

Sorry to inform you but the giveaway is over, thanks for your participation and please read OP and all replies before posting, it'll save you the embarrassment of seeming like the only reason you posted was because Jack through his generosity was giving knives away.

BTW, welcome to the forums and hope to see your contributions to the community in the near future. :)

FYI, a winner was chosen and it was me, yeah. :)
