Knife Exchange (KITH) Updated. Please read

[Justin Presson]

I think you have a slightly used chopper...

LOL......Dennis you can have that knife when you pry it from my cold dead hands

 

[Jon Buescher]

We are getting close to the deadline for doing the exchange. I don't recall setting a date, but I'm thinking the November 26 for the drawing and the shipping date NLT November 30. Is everyone good with this?
These are the names that I have going into the exchange. I've been away working the Hurricanes in the Carolinas so I haven't been as active in the forum as I would have liked. Please let me know if your status (C=Complete, WIP, WD=With Drawn)

I went back and checked. I had you down as an alternate. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[opaul]

Bump

 

[John Wilson]

John W : complete

 

[Ty Adams]

Sorry guys I need to drop out. I haven't had a day off from work in over 4 weeks and it looks like Thanksgiving will be my first day off.

 

[Von Gruff]

Just dont leave it too late to get this underway OP as I dont like to post anything to the US after the start of Dec. Too much christmas mail and too many temporary staff without the dedication to their jobs that regular staff have.

 

[Randy Lucius]

Complete.

The drawing is 11//26 with mail date no later than 11/29.

 

[Mark Barone]

Next year I'll be in it!

 

[opaul]

Allow me to do a bit more verifying. If everyone is all in from the remaining 'all in' names, we may be able to draw the day after Thanksgiving.
Is everyone good with that?

 

[Chris Railey]

Works for me.

 

[Self Made Knives]

If I'm still on the list you'll have to remove me too. I've just been too busy and I don't want to submit a rush job. I promised a few people knives in time for Christmas gifts and that's all I've been doing. I've got 9 sheaths to make still! Maybe next year...

 

[opaul]

Well, I've so busy, I haven't started one yet. Don't count me out just yet, I might still make it.

Thanks Maybe next year.

 

[Smallshop]

I'm still in. Grinding my blade today....handles are mostly finished.

 

[DanF]

I'll be done or out by Tuesday evening. Buffer caught me day before yesterday, created a booger on the ricasso. I'll have it fixed, or know by then if it's hopeless. May have to be satisfied with a satin finish on the blade however.

May have to be satisfied with a satin finish on the blade however.

The only knives I have are "user" blades (well, except for a few "wall hangers). For user blades a satin finish is best anyway.

I prefer a satin finish.

My style as well. May do a finer satin finish on chef blades but still not a polished finish. Easy for the new owner to remove any small marks with a grey scotchbright
