For the June 2024 Giveaway, we have a very special donation of a Case 6137 CV Chestnut Bone Sod Buster Jr. from first-time giveaway donor 1967redryder (John) who has been a member of AAPK for 4,868 days, and in those 13+ years, John has never won the monthly knife giveaway despite trying month after month! Let’s hope that John generates some good karma with this wonderful act of benevolence.

These are the features of the June 2024 Monthly Knife Giveaway:
Standard Jigged Chestnut Bone scales

Chrome Vanadium Blades (the original Case steel)

Case Oval Script shield

Skinner Blade

3 5/8" Closed

Pattern: 6137 CV
John further notes that Chrome Vanadium is a harder steel than stainless steel so it will hold its edge longer and that this knife was released on 10/07/2015, the same day that fellow American Paul Modrich won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry for his work on mapping how cells repair damaged DNA, providing "fundamental knowledge of how a living cell function which has absolutely nothing to do with the giveaway but is just a fun fact.

Good Luck!

That is a fine knife; a very generous donation!
I have one almost identical that I won last year in the monthly giveaway, so I will sit this one out to be sure that it goes to another member.
I love mine and carry it often, so I am sure that the winner of June's giveaway will be just as proud of this beauty!

Nice of you to offer one up, although I still feel kind of bad you never won one. Been entering a lot I take it, thanks again for the kind, thoughtful generosity.

I prefer author laureate but wordsmith is acceptable

FYI - Anyone who is bothered by the fact that John has never won and wants to feel better, PM me with your plan to make it better and I’ll share John’s shipping address.
