This is Round 9 of a creative GAW/Passaround/TravelingSwapMeet started by mrknife just over a year ago. http://www.bladeforums.com/threads/rye_a-you-have-the-conn-gaw-continues.1410482/
I opened the box up last night ~ it was very fun, like Christmas at Grandma's when I was a kid, and the gifts were coming so fast I barely had time to look at one before the next one was ready to be opened. I haven't really had a chance to go through all of them in detail yet, but I'm eyeing the little red shell handled Barlow pretty hard... I will go through some of my knives tonight and see what to pass along, and will edit this post with what I take and what I send along... Here are the knives I received:
(sorry for the poor photo, it was dark out when I got around to opening it)
I've been trying to compile a list of past winners, what they took and what they gave, but it's been a daunting task with the new forum software that I'm now using for the first time. You'll just have to use your imagination or Google Fu
I will enter the numbers of the contestants in a random number generator next Thursday, 7/20 to select a winner, and with any luck get the package mailed off on Friday the 21st.
Here are the rules from mrknife's original posting:
Doing another GAW but this one is a little different. I'd sort of like this to be more of a pass around/pay it forward.
Im going to put all of these in a box and ship to one winner. They may not like all the knives in there or they may. If they do, the giveaway ends there I suppose. But if they don't, I hope they swap the knife they want for a knife or knives they have in their collection that they'd like to pass on to some one else who may find it more enjoyable via a similar giveaway. It'll be on an honor system and I have faith in all of you It's a variety pack of knives in different costs, so I'm sure everyone will get something they enjoy and want to give a new home.
In order to be considered, please fulfill any of these conditions:
1. be a known member of the Porch (at least a decent amount of meaningful contribution via content or conversation)
2. have donated to the St.Judes Charities/or Bob (hang in there buddy, hope you are doing ok!)
3. have done any sort of giveaway
Just say "I'm in" to be added to the list.
If you want to tell us all which knives you're pining for and what you'd toss in the box as a replacement then have at it. It's a good way to keep the thread going and garner more interest.
The current list of entrants is:
1. BenHarris
2. RobertJ1
3. Faiaoga
4. kysteve
5. combatjiujitsu
7. Nature Boy
