Thanks everyone for the kudos. Good Luck to all who enter the giveaway. It's my honor and pleasure to pass on an awesome knife to a lucky AAPK member.

Thank you Tom for allowing me to be a donator and a supporter of an awesome program Bryan started waaaaaaaaay back in April 2005. ::handshake:: ::tu:: It's amazing this great giveaway is still going after 16 years. That says a lot about this site. It's a great way for AAPK Knifer's to be involved, show camaraderie and support for one of the greatest knife sites on the web. The Monthly Knife Giveaway has some GREAT history to it, if one has never reviewed the entire giveaway thread from the beginning.

It's all wrapped up & boxed up...just waiting for a winner and an address. ::tu::

Depending on how quick Tom receives confirmation from the winner and Tom provides an address, it will go out in tomorrows mail to the winner. Otherwise, it will be Monday. Of course, it all depends on whether the winner remembers to 'check in' tonight or early tomorrow to do their part.

Good LUCK to all those who entered this drawing for April. And a huge THANKS to Bryan and Tom for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this awesome 'knife giveaway' program as a donator. ::handshake::

Well ladies and gentlemen, it's happened again. The first-place winner of this giveaway (Martinrusso) failed to respond to my PM in the allotted 5-days and I am declaring the next-place player the winner of the April 2021 AAPK monthly knife giveaway whose pick of #221 was the closest to the drawn #245 without going over. I truly never thought I'd be declaring myself (bestgear) as the winner of any of our monthly knife giveaway's, but after almost 100 tries using the same number (my birthday), I backed into a win. Thank you Ken for your kind donation, pictures will be posted when she arrives. ::handshake::

I’m not sure about that ::shrug:: as the Giveaway Coordinator position gives me so much pleasure to connect a willing donor with a willing winner ::groove:: but Ken’s Big Sky fixed-blade will join My Heirloom Collection along with proper documentation so that generations from now will know about our escapades here on AAPK!

Thanks guys - I’m still rather stunned but in a good way with a boy-like smile impatiently waiting for the letter carrier. This has happened so much of late and rarely do I hear the back story; I always hope that everything is OK and that life just got in the way of remembering to revisit AAPK.

That is always my 1st thought Tom, that whomever won and hasn't claimed their prize is in some way incapacitated, because to enter a contest and then ignore the results just isn't logical. Anyway, you're now the official winner and you can look at it like a "Store Closing" gift! 8)
