September 2023 Forum Member Knife Giveaway

This month we have a special donation from a very passionate and engaged first-time donor Dan In MI (Dan Addy). Dan wanted to do his best to please his fellow AAPK members and reached deep into his collection for the September 2023 giveaway knife. Dan chose a 2019 Case Mini Trapper (item number 27772, pattern number 6207) in burnt gray peach seed jigged bone. This knife was originally owned by AAPK member QTCut5 until 2021 so the winner will be getting a knife with DNA from 2 very active and well-respected AAPK members. It spent one day in Dan’s left front pocket, primarily so he could give it the ol' CE and CF (chicken eye and coon finger) and it has on its resume some minor slicing of receipt paper, but that's it. Fit and finish on it are reported to be generally good and it retains the factory edges on both blades. The color and finish on the covers remind Dan a little of a nicely weathered piece of teak with kind of a beachy vibe. There is no doubt in Dan’s mind that a fellow AAPK member will be very happy to have become the 3rd AAPK member to be the caretaker of such a fine knife. Good Luck!

If you make 6 simple posts/ day until 9/30 you’d be eligible for this months giveaway and every month afterwards ::ds:: I’m hoping you could find a few topics that you can contribute to.
