I know this is long overdue but better late than never! There was a slight delay in getting my knife and I was out of work for awhile and had to get some shit straight.

Anyway, on to the important part....The winner is JustSomeGuy! Congrats man! I sent you a message, I just need your info and I'll get her shipped out to you.

Thanks for everyone who showed interest and entered and I apologize again for the delay.

Ok, my first custom knife is due to be done by the end of the month and to celebrate that and give back to this forum I've decided to let one go. Had it not been for the BF community I wouldn't be nearly as knowledgeable about blades as I am and I'm sure my collection would be much less satisfying. Not to mention I probably would've never even come across the maker that is doing my custom.

The giveaway knife is an ESEE Candiru in black with a custom red kydex sheath made by forum member AZWelke. I'll also include some gutted black 550 cord if you'd like to give it a wrap, I've been using it without one. I got this one back in January, have EDC'd it many times and use it around the house regularly for just about anything. It has actually become my favorite meat and cheese knife in the process!

It shows absolutely ZERO signs of wear and I have yet to sharpen it. I coated it with Eezox knife care from day one as it's 1095 and I'm anal about rust on my blades. The sheath fits it perfectly with no blade rub and has the perfect amount of retention. It's very well made with all of the edges rounded and the seam is melted and polished to give it a clean look. It also has AZWelke's makers mark stamped on it for a nice custom touch and features a small drain hole at the bottom of the blade contour to let out moisture.

It's the one in this picture, I'm having a hell of a day and really don't feel like taking a better one. :o

A simple "I'm in!" will get you an entry and when I'm notified that my knife is done I'll draw a winner using a random number generator. This is open to ANYONE on BF that can legally own this knife, you know your laws, please abide by them. I'll cover the shipping cost Worldwide.

Thanks again to BF and all of it's members. You guys and gals are all amazing!

I'm in! I keep posting in these fixed blade giveaways hoping I'll eventually get a new boot knife. /crosses fingers
 
That sheath is gorgeous I'm in! Congrats on your first custom, it sure is a slippery slope though ;)

It's even better in person, extremely well made.

It's a VERY slippery slope, I hear ya man! I find myself browsing the custom exhange and wanting to post "I'll take it!" on everything haha
 
I am in!

Thanks for the opportunity. And congrats on your custom. The first is one is always unforgettable.
 
Thanks for the chance! I am in. Also what is the custom you are getting? Customs are so much fun.
