I won a WTC D’Allara !

#1

Post by ChrisinHove »

As someone who usually only wins stale biscuits and unuseable toiletries in raffles, I was more than delighted to win WTC D’Allara #1953 in a recent FB fan page raffle.

It seems strange to acquire something of such significance in so trivial a way, but I will treasure it no less. 67 Brits also died in that attack.

That's great Chris! That's one I'd really like to have. Somehow I missed the raffle in the FB groups

Congratulations. Nice to win one eh! I am not usually the guy who supports "safe queens" but there is a really good argument for keeping that knife in mint condition.

Awesome, congrats! Such a historically significant knife. How much was the buy-in for the waffle or was this done totally for free?

I've been chasing that one for years, ever since I missed the run. Pretty much given up now.
