Here are a couple of knives that need to leave the Casa Del X, and what better way than via a BLF Giveaway ?
First off, a few rules:
Recipient must be over 18
Recipient is responsible for knowing their local knife laws
I am not responsible for any mishaps, injuries, severed appendages.
Recipient must affirm that no crimes will be committed with the knife received.
I will pay for shipping. International is OK, but I'm not responsible for any customs duty or mishaps.
To enter the giveaway:
You must state that you have read, and will abide by the rules of the giveaway.
You must have been a member for longer than 30 days from today.
You must have given to charity in the last year, either through effort or material goods.
You must list the charity that you've supported in your entry post.
If you haven't given to charity, an acceptable alternative would be to add a link in your signature to the charity in my signature - Wardogs. Signature link should remain for at least 4 weeks.
These are my giveaway rules; if you don't think they are fair, feel free to not participate.
I will draw 3 names from a random number generator on Sunday, May 20, 2012 at 5pm CST.
Enough of that, on to the goods:
* Knife #1 is a LARGE Buck lockback folding hunter/skinner, model number 397. It is Made in USA.{WINNER- Buwuve}
* Knife #2 is an Enlan EL-04 MCT, made in China
* Knife #3 is an Enlan small fixed-blade neck-knife, partially serrated.
I have also given to my local food bank in the last 4 weeks. Hopefully a food bank is considered charity. Edit: Also put the link of the charity in my sig..it's for a good cause..
I have read and will abide by the rules. In the new year I have not yet given to a charity as I do all of my donations at the end of the year, however I have made my signature your link as noted.
Thanks for this awesome giveaway! I am quickly becoming a knife-junkie and would love an addition to the collection! Thanks for your generosity Chicago!
Mike
EDIT: Thanks to those here, I was reminded of a Charity I donated too a couple months ago. The Winnipeg Pet rescue shelter, one of our no-kill pet shelters!
Does sending a Fenix lanyard for free count as charity? :bigsmile:
Thanks for the giveaway but I already have more knifes than is healthy for my relationship (and more coming) and I don't think I qualify, just wanted to say thanks.
I really just wanted to say thanks for the giveaway as it is a nice gesture. When I said more knifes than healthy I really ment it. And furthermore I plan to revive my pre-flashlight hobby of making my own.
So if I should win anything I want you to send it to Mr Admin, ok?
I have read, and will abide by the rules of this giveaway, of course!
I don't offen give money to charity, because I can't. We are strugling with a very week economy, and every penny is unfortunately needed.
I do, however, offer fresh food(fruits and vegetables) monthly, from my farm, to the local branch of Banco Alimentar.(transl. FoodBank) They then redistribute them to whomever needs it.

The Cone family just gave to the Pass It Along food drive, which I believe is actually still going on, so, if you live in northwest NJ...
My son's and I just spent a 1/2 day picking garbage up off the side of the local roads as part of our town's Preservation Society clean up weekend. Mrs. Cone usually goes, but had a wedding shower to attend.
And I always donate some cash to my local Bishop's Storehouse when I use their facilities since they are kind enough to let a nonmember in there to can.
And, if you'd like more exposure for War Dogs, I'd be happy to add the link, but one of you guys will have to tell me how because I doubt I can figure it out on my own unless it is so easy a caveman can do it.
Good for you ChicagoX
I don’t need anymore knives so I am not entering. I do give to the local animal care and control shelter. They do kill dogs they can’t home but giving to them helps find more homes and provides food and care. We got our last two Brittanys from there and they were good dogs. Pure bred and all around sweethearts.
We are currently doing a 'Winter Campaign' here in my city. We collect donated clothes, separate them into groups and deliver to the most needed communities.
As a matter of principle, I tend to agree with your post, Boaz, but I think there is a distinction between bragging about what you've done and/or profiting from it, and answering ChicagoX's question. True, one could consider winning a contest "profiting" but none of us performed acts of charity just to enter this contest.
And, ChicagoX, just like I'm sometimes too quick to say something stupid and irrelevant, sometimes you are too quickly offended and unnecessarily harsh in your response.
