1,000 Posts, Spyderco Contest

#1

Post by ront »

Hi all,
Well, as I mentioned a few days ago, I have reached 1000 posts here at the best forum on the internet. I want to do a contest to celebrate. I have a hard time being real creative at this sort of thing but I have tried to come up with something that would be fun for all, while not being difficult. I hope I have made it so that it will not be over in 5 minutes, but will not go on forever either.
First and foremost, I want to say thanks a million to Scott (smcfalls13) who is very graciously providing the winner with the prize. I did not have any knives that I could bear to part with and Scott contacted me and offered a Spyderco SWICK to give to the winner. Very very cool (IMHO)!!
So with out further ado (is that a word), here is the contest. It will consist of three questions. The first person to answer all three correctly will win. I will just go down the posts in the order they are made until I get a winner. So here are the questions.
1. What was my 1st Spyderco purchase?
2. How many Spyderco knives do I own?
3. What are my four favorite Spyderco’s?

Thanks for playing. I hope you have fun. Most of all, thanks to all the great friends I have met here. You are all great!!

Ron

Well I told Ron that it wasn't fair to all of you for me to compete in this contest since I know all of the answers. So I will just read your guesses :( :( :( Besides I hear him everyday on the otherside of the filecabinets flicking his :spyder: or cleaning his :spyder: or the one I don't understand....sharpening his :spyder: when he never uses them.

Thanks to Scott for supplying the winning prize since Ron won't part with any of his ?? :spyder: Especially his favorite ?? one.

Good luck....
