July 2022 AAPK Knife Giveaway

[bestgear]

This month eveled (Ed) has decided to donate his Buck 373 from 2013 which is like new in the box! This mid-sized 3-bladed Stockman features clip, spey, and sheepsfoot blades in 420HC steel, Jigged Bone Handles with Slanted Nickel Silver Bolsters, and the Buck "Classic Bolt" logo inlay. This knife weighs just 1.9 oz. and is 3.25” closed. Good luck!

Instructions for entering the giveaway...

Simply click here and select a number between 0 and 999.

You will have until July 31st (6:00 P.M. Eastern) to pick a number after which entries will not be considered. The winner will be determined by the Illinois State Lottery evening pick three drawing on July 31st. The individual closest to the selected number without going over will win. The Illinois lottery results can be found on the following website:

https://www.illinoislottery.com/dbg/results/pick3

You must be 18 years of age or older to play. The first-place winner will be sent an AAPK PM after the drawing and will have 5 days to respond with contact and shipping information. If the first-place winner does not respond within 5 days, the knife will be offered to the next player on the list without going over.

The next-place winner will be sent an AAPK Private-Message (PM), and they will have 3 days to respond with contact and shipping information. If the next-place winner does not respond within the 3 days, the knife will be offered in the same manner to the next-place winner on the list without going over.

Good Luck!

Good Morning warman - Congratulations!

Your pick of 003 was three away from the winning lottery number drawn last night of "006", making you the July 2022 AAPK Knife Giveaway winner.

Warman now has 5-days to reply to the PM in his inbox with his full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address which I will forward to the donor.

Again, my sincerest congratulations!

Sadly we are faced with the same situation we were in May and June as our July 1st place winner (warman) failed to reply to my PM in the allotted time, and this morning I am declaring 227thcrewchief as the new winner of the July 2022 AAPK Knife Giveaway. Congratulations

[bestgear]

Both warman and 227thecrewchief failed to claim the prize so this morning I declared gordonjohn the new winner. Should gordonjohn fail to claim his prize, there would be no selected numbers lower than the lottery number so the August giveaway winner would get both the July and August knives - that would be a first I believe. Com on gordonjohn, do the right thing!

[bestgear]

OK, gordonjohn did the right thing and has claimed the prize, so we have a winner for the July 2022 giveaway!

We have some rule changes coming in September so stay tuned for those.

I hope they will require a minimum number of posts before a number can be picked. Software nightmare? I suppose so.
