WINNERS CHOSEN! 5 DAY GIVEAWAY!!! User Challenge!

Oh hey guys, happy Thursday and happy whatever-the-f**k-day-it-is to our knife-wielding friends down under too - between the strange day schedule, the huntsman spiders, and the water going down the drain the wrong way, I don't know how you guys do it - but you seem to find a way!!! Kudos!

Because there has seemingly been a little confusion surrounding the topic I'm about to broach, allow me to clarify how I do it and perhaps serve as an example for any similar posts in the future! Ready??! Okay, here goes!!!

Aye Carumba, y'all! I got a package in the mail! Yippee! šŸ˜„ I wonder what it could be?! A model train? Venomous snakes? Dancing girls? Oh - the excitement is killing me! šŸ’€ Thankfully, I've got this sweet Waynorth Cutlery Co. #86 Harness Jack to help me find out!!

By Jove - would you look at that?! It's a tube and some material that's apparently made out of recycled plastic bottles! (Rather than ending the post here - I'll continue!)

Gratuitous Tease Shot (helps build the excitement, see?)

Could it be... a knife?!?! Oh boy, I sure hope so! I just love knives!!! 😱 I can't find any of my tube poppers (didn't look either...) so I'll just use the rough n' tumble bolsters on The Rider! That's the ticket!

Unbelievable! It's a Northfield UN-X-LD #44 Buffalo Jack with brass bolsters and Cocobolo wood covers! I've always wanted one of these! Maybe it will get some use once The Rider quits hogging the limelight!

Getting down to the last of our hounds food supplements. Nothing major, it's just some powder we put on her food since she's getting older. We've noticed an improvement in her coat & energy with it šŸ‘View attachment 2423899 Ready for the ball throw!!!View attachment 2423902
Beautiful pup Z!

I love the spicy commentary Mr. Beaks! The more we can give 321Bandaid 321Bandaid a hard time the better šŸ˜‚.
 
we did our department holiday team builder and lunch today. 80 staff broken up into teams of 5. Gingerbread house build. Highest house that survived being moved across the bay to a new table wins. Today’s winning house was 40.5ā€ tall.

Cheat fact - if you mix powdered sugar with icing it turns into a cement like binder. 🤣🤣🤣

Northwoods helped my table. I now have icing cement imbedded in the tiny holes of the burlap. I don’t think it’s ever coming out. šŸ˜ŽšŸ‘šŸ»šŸ‘šŸ»

Beautiful pup Z!
Thanks! We adopted her as a stray that came up to a friends house a while back, she was about 1-2 years old & pregnant at the time when we found her (that was about 8 years ago). Our friends found homes for the pups & not her & after weeks of searching for the owners they were about to send her off to the pound. That's when we decided we had to take her in. She's been a great companion & addition to our family! šŸ˜‰
 
Cut open a pack of water bottles.

Prepared my lunch as per usual.

Opened box number 5 million for the month. šŸ˜‚

Then more boring office work. Why tear open a ream of paper like a heathen when more elegant solutions are available? šŸ˜‰

And there’s no wrong way to eat a Reese’s.

If I'm being completely honest, this is probably most of what I do with a knife. šŸ•

The author remarks that while some folks prefer cigarette paper, hanging manila hemp rope, or corrugated cardboard for material indicators of a blade's sharpness - the author is so accustomed to the feel of a blade through the cellophane of a frozen pizza's wrapper that, given the preference, he'd choose no other substance with which to test a knife's edge.
 
I’m rounding up the loot, getting ready to wrap this puppy up at the end of tomorrow. I’ll pick winners out of a hat on Saturday before lunch (old school style, administered via child labor so that adults cannot tamper with the results šŸ˜‰).

For the eagle eyes out there, let your curiosity be piqued. You see right! There are three really cool knives in slips that I’m giving away as superlatives. This has been such a fun run, I wanted to be able to memorialize the efforts of a few dudes who made me laugh along the way. I’ll pick three ā€œBest of the Weekā€, take their names out of the hat, and then draw the rest. What makes it ā€œBestā€? Funny, creative, consistent…in the end, I reserve the right to select three folks that I’d like to give the knives to. It will be fun!

I wanted the other five GAW knives to go ā€œluck of the drawā€, and a fair play for everyone.

Thanks for jumping in for great week everyone!
