Well, today was a good day. I was already expecting a package in the mail for a few days and today just had to be that day.
I sprinted to the mailbox, opened it and...only advertising. Pfff. That s*cks. But wait... why is that advertising so thick in the middle? Would something be...underneath it? Maybe?
OH YES there was... I couldn't open the package fast enough. An old case helped me take care of that.
So here's the Case, the Buck I won from Klineh and something else, something hard and round in a piece of paper...what could thàt be?
Took the Buck out of the ziplock bag and put it next to my Case for a size comparison. This is a good looking knife for sure.
Opened up, it looks like this. I love the hollow grind. I hadn't had a traditional with that grind (I think). The way the spine of the blade is ground is very appealing as well. Overall a very cool blade, couldn't be more happy with it!
But what was that hard thingy in that piece of paper?
A coin and a note from Klineh! That's way to sweet. I fondled the coin for a while since I've never held American currency. Good stuff. And the note really got to me, I really like it.
So once again, a big THANK YOU to Jon for this giveaway. It's an awesome blade and I love that you included the coin and the note, it makes it a lot more personal.
Now, I do have a question to you guys. I'm not really up to date on the folklore of blades and pennies, so if someone could tell me what to do? Do I keep the coin? Do I send it back? Both feel somewhat wrong to me since he gave it to me and I think it's unkind to give it back, or is it just the purpose to give it back? I really don't know, so help me out on this. Either way, a BIG thanks again to Jon. This is awesome. The Buck's in my pocket already!
