January 2022 AAPK Knife Giveaway

Post by bestgear »

This month Jody (Jody744) Kalb has donated a Bear & Son Office knife with white smooth bone handles. For more than 100 years, collectors have sought after the historical and elegant Office knife as these knives were a useful and popular tool with almost every traditional cutlery company making their own unique version. The one in this month’s giveaway comes from Red Hill Cutlery’s Josh Basham who designed this modern rendition of a traditional favorite using Bear and Son’s new 79 single blade pen knife pattern. This art design is exclusive to Red Hill Cutlery and was extremely limited.

The Bear & Son 79 is an improved version of the 2 blades 79 Pen Knife from the ’80s & ’90s. This single-blade version features a lanyard hole and screw-together construction. The Taper Ground 2-1/4″ Drop Point Blade is made from High Carbon Stainless Steel, making it rust-resistant, easy to sharpen, and will hold an edge exceptionally well. The Bear & Son 79 has a nail nick present to open the blade. The Bear & Son 79 has an overall length of 6″ and is a good size to fit in the pocket. The 79 weighs 2.2 ounces and is proudly made in the USA.

Thank you, Jody, and good luck, to everyone that enters.

Thank you for donating, & the chance to win.

I don't quite get it either ... I can (and do) set reminders on numerous devices like my phone, tablet, computer and watch ... in the almost 4 years that I've been running the giveaway, 16 people have failed to claim their winnings ::facepalm::

I've learned not to congratulate anyone on a 'win' until Tom presents a confirmation notice in the thread. I don't like to think like this, but for me, that's what its come to.

So...CONGRATS! Kolvir (Andrew) on your very nice win. Way to 'pay attention' and conduct a timely followup. ::tu:: I've got this knife, so I'll just add that; you're going to really like this knife.
