https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/bladeforums-2024-traditional-knife.2003187/
Price is $300 $250 ea (shipped within CONUS). If you live outside the US, I will contact you after your order for extra shipping charges.
Order here: https://www.bladeforums.com/help/2024-traditional/ - Order as many as you like, we have plenty.
Not sure how I missed this thread, or at least didn't post here, for more than a week!As some of you may know, I recently won a GAW co-hosted byJohnDF and
t.willy . The prize was two trappers.
JohnDF started a three-trapper GAW which
t.willy won.
t.willy kept one and co-hosted a GAW for the remaining trappers, which I won. I am only keeping one: the wharncliffe mini-trapper (never had a wharncliffe blade). So, I am hosting my first GAW for the remaining knife, a Case Yellow Delrin CV Trapper, a true classic.

The rules are pretty simple.
(1) Be a paid/supporting member of BladeForums (at least a "Basic Member"); and
(2) be a regular contributor to the traditional sub-forum (25+ posts as of today).
That's it. No restrictions as to country. Shipping on me. A simple "I'm in" from eligible entrants will do it. I will keep this open for a week and a half, and do a random drawing next Saturday, December 15.
Good Luck!
Edited to modify requirement 2 (25 instead of 50 posts in traditional subforum as of December 5), but sticking with rule 1: must be paid member to enter. You can join by the time I select the winner (at random, of course) on December 15.
Thanks! I love the full size trappers myself, and will eventually get a yellow one (I have a yellow mini trapper with CV blades). I like both SS and CV.Not sure how I missed this thread, or at least didn't post here, for more than a week!
Not an entry, because I've learned that there are MANY folks who would carry and enjoy a full size trapper much more than I would. But congrats, Vince, on winning thet.willy 's "son" of
JohnDF 's 3-trapper GAW (the Wharncliffe mini trapper is a gem
) and for hosting this generous "grandson" GAW for the iconic yellow Delrin Case CV trapper!
Best wishes to all the entrants!!

Thanks, David. I love Stetson hats. Thinking of getting a black one.Congratulations pinemoon!
Fine choice of a hatPrester John
I need to get another Stetson, I had a 4x silverbelly years ago that was stolen
.
Resistol is great too. I think they are now made in the same factory as Stetson.
I think it's wrong to steal anything but stealing another man's hat let lone a Stetson!Congratulations pinemoon!

No one likes a thief. All accounts will be settled one day, though.Yeah I looked for that hat on somebody's head for a long time, someone broke into my home and got it couple computers, some other electronic stuff, my hat,my Dads bear recurve bow I had borrowed, a few knives including a Buck I can't remember the model number, Buckmaster style blade but 5 inch, green kraton handle. That was a hard knife to come by, and I ain't found one since. Plus they trashed the house. All back in '03. It would NOT have been a good day for anyone caught wearing that hat. Luckily I was doing night watchman job for the place I truck mechanic'd for to. I stayed on the property during the week and only was home on the weekends. So what firearms I owned at the time was with me in the camper I was staying in.
