Instructions for entering the giveaway...The Lakes PAL is a classic design from Ron Lake that was put into production by CRKT. It features the P.A.L. Piston Activated Lock and an open built frame of 420J2 stainless steel. The handle is satin finished with threaded stainless-steel spacers and jigged bone inlays with one Torx screw missing on the pile side near the lanyard hole that could be easily replaced and installed if the new owner desires. It offers supreme strength and rigidity, with the warmth of traditional materials. The blade is premium AUS 8 stainless steel, in a modified drop point shape with a satin finish. Includes pouch for carry.
Ken has taken a brief sabbatical from the AAPK forums to focus his time and energy into gracefully ending his current vocation, so he can focus on his true passion of knife sharpening and commerce in hopefully the near future. Ken wanted me to pen a few words about his love and gratitude for the members of AAPK but I think his donation does that just fine.
