Image Fun ? Did somebody say fun ? Ok let’s get started !

This is a really special and interesting motive - one almost has to "stop" and look at the pic, in order to find out what´s going on here... looks like either the knife, or the steel plate it looks to be attached to would be magnetic... ;)
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

At first I thought the image was just rotated 90 degrees, then I realized it was not.

I did some brain storming on this shot . It’s so hard to come up with something unique with so many great shots that are entered in the contest . The old windmill is close to a hundred years old . I found it on a curb and took home and had son-in-law take to Case International Harvestor to shot blast, weld , and paint . I then added a grease zirk at head to quiet rotation . Probably repaint again next year . I had been using the Salt in back so decided not to clean it up and do the shot . I already have a shot tucked away for next week that will give everyone a little chuckle . Thanks for making my day . MG2

Sorry I'm a bit late on announcing winners, but here they are!

:trophy 1st place goes to anycal for his great photo of the Ikuchi. It's a model you don't often see even around here, and those carbon fiber scales really make it look classy!

Thanks Connor! It is a perfect knife for a classy occasion. Although those who know me may argue that I have no need for such knife :winking-tongue

Line them up folks. There are a lot of great pictures scattered all over this forum. And, winter is here. Let's see some snow pics. It may be a while before I have a chance to see any, so would like to live vicariously...

Thanks for the kind words Connor.
