Hello BladeForums, I hope you are all having a great day!
It's been awhile since I've hosted one of these!
For nearly a year now I have been selling knife handle material on Instagram, specializing in vintage phenolics, natural and K&G stabilized woods, and cast materials like mammoth ivory, Fordite, Graffite, etc. It has been an extremely fun, and rewarding endeavor so far. I've met some really rad people, and have had the chance to check out some extremely cool materials. It has recently been really taking off. So much so that I decided to open a real online storefront a few months back.
Right now I mainly just have vintage Micarta/phenolics posted as I'm sorting sold/available inventory from a show, but there will be a LOT more stuff coming soon.

To celebrate the opening of the website, I thought I would have a little giveaway for the awesome members of the Porch! I've been wanting to do this for some time now, but I've been waiting on what I thought was a cool enough release from Great Eastern Cutlery.
Being given away is a brand new, unused GEC Tidioute #86 Rivertown Jack in bocote, with tube and pin! This BEAUTY came from Mike
knifeswapper
of Collector Knives, one of the best in the business!
Now for the rules:
This giveaway is open to all NON-PAYING BladeForums members WITH AT LEAST 250 posts in the Traditional Folders and Fixed Blade subforum as of today (yes, I know that is a lot), as well as all PAID members WITH AT LEAST 100 posts in the Traditional Folders and Fixed Blade subforum.
To enter, just let us know what your all-time favorite material is for knife covers. That's it! It may be in your best interest to post a picture of a knife with the material too.
The giveaway will be open until Friday 8/18, and then all names will be entered into a random name picker and a winner chosen on Monday.
Good luck!
*EDIT*
Winner(s) Chosen!
Alright! We have a winner... Or I should say winners!
With a total of five entries, it will probably come as no surprise that the winner of the main giveaway is none other than
sbh06
! Congrats, Jeremy! I cleared out my inbox awhile back, so if you shoot me your address again, I'll get this out asap! I'm also including a tin of Axe Wax for you to try.
Thanks for making BladeForums, and the Porch specifically, such a great place to hang out!
This giveaway had a little bonus to it! I wanted to try to give back a little something extra to the people that give the most to the forum. All paying members with over 2,500 posts who posted a picture in the thread (and non-paying members with over 10,000 posts) were entered into another giveaway.
This giveaway is for a custom re-cover of one of your knives, by the esteemed
glennbad
with your choice of my material, paid for by me.
And the winner is:
Chief
!
I have several dozen choices of material. Shoot me a message when you select the knife you want re-covered, and we'll work it out.
Have a great week everyone!
