Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
This feels like fate. Sal is meant to have this wonderful gift. I hope he accepts it :)
Stay sharp!
Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
Well.....since SOME of you couldn't follow directions 
There were a few posts where guys said they didn't want to be included, so Sal actually isn't the 83rd post. After subtracting the "not in" posts and not counting my own and assuming Sal didn't want to be entered, the 83rd post is JRinFL.
I'll tell ya this much, next time I'll just do a random number thing because this turned out to be more convoluted than I wanted it to be.

Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
Hahaha, funny thing is Larry had mentioned prior to you turning it down and me becoming the winner, that he had tried to persuade me into a small fixed blade in the past. Guess he must have known I'd have a thing for them haha!
Congrats on this one though! Glad to see it went to someone that's here everyday and we can get some of your own feedback on this beast!

Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
You know it's funny, even though the knife is awesome, I'm really looking forward to using the edge he put on it. I have not screwed up the courage to really reprofile my own serrated edges, yet.

Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
The price is right!
Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
Congrats JR. If this really does become a travelling knife, it would be cool to keep and pass on with it a running history of it. JR use it in good health!
Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
Congratulations JR, thanks D for the giveaway.

Re: IT'S KNIFE GIVEAWAY TIME!!
It’s here!
Considering all it went through, it looks practically new. Outside of the color and Evil D’s edge, that is.
I have to thank David again for his very generous give away. It must have been a sacrifice to give up such a good knife!
