As most of you know Bob Bendell (BigBiscuit) is battling cancer. He has been out of work since January and now the doctors have only given him 6 to 12 months. This has left Bob and his family strapped financially.
This is to raise money for him through donations from our members here.
Although you do not have to give to be awarded a knife if your post number comes up I strongly request you please donate. This is for a good cause to help one of our finest contributing members.
Please Donate through Paypal to rbendell357@verizon.net
Rules
Your post # is your entry. This will run until February 1 at which time winners will be selected by random number generator. If your post number is selected and you do not wish to receive the knife we will send it to Bob so he can sell it or keep it whichever he wants to do. You must have at least 20 post somewhere in Blade forums prior to today with the majority of them somewhere besides Gaws to participate although you can donate and are encouraged to.
Here are the knives and we are up to eleven and more coming I will add as soon as I get the pictures and info. Good luck to all and thank you in advance for your generosity and compassion.

Thanks to Randy for taking this on. And thanks to everyone here that have been so supportive. I talked to Randy yesterday on my way to get checked at the hospital. Yesterday's check finally showed an upswing in my white blood cell count since my bone marrow transplant just before Thanksgiving. It's a slow process, but encouraging none the less.
