OK here is the deal;
Some time tonight or in the morning I am hoping to get a gold membership, the only problem is for some reason I can not access my AOL mail (which is the email used for my bladeforums account). I am hoping to edit my user profile to another email that I can access without problems but I have not been able to yet.
My church has been helping out our local community focusing on single mothers and children in low income areas. We now have two groups of voulenters one who helps work on cars of those in need. The other group helps with homes that need work. Last weekend we were able to re-shingle the roof of an elderly lady with a few grandchildren . We are also partnering with a local elementry school where 85% of the students there are on free or reduce lunch. The church had the students to write an essey about what they would do with $100 to help their family. One child that said he would buy his family a new home because their home has bugs. Another said they would buy soap to wash their cloths and food to feed everyone. One that really hit home with me and got me thinking about what I could do was hearing how a little girl would buy hot water to take a warm bath. For some reason this really hit me hard and made me very greatful for all the blessing I have.
So I have been thinking what can I do to help some of these families. I have decided to sell off some of my knives to raise money for families in need. What I need is some prices on thses knives. I am looking for fair prices for both parties. I love these knives and want them to have a good home, that why they are not going to the bay, but to my fellow members here on bladeforums.
Here are a few, and I will be adding more as I get a chance to upload them.
First is a North Carolina Bicentenial 112 with the state shape engraved in the top of the box.
Here I am trying to show the numbers stamped on the back which are 084/250 but it did not come out very well.
Two dot 112 with two hairline scratches on one side of the blade.
The first 500 is Buck script 500 USA with micarta inlays.
Second 500 has very light hairlines on one side of the bolsters.
Last is an 301 from 1990 with bone.
