March 2025 Forum Member Knife Giveaway

This month we have a first-time donor to the monthly knife giveaway. After winning a beautiful Case 6137 CV Chestnut Bone Sod Buster Jr. in the June giveaway last year, Sasquach (Charlie) decided to treat the forum and part ways with his 2022 Case Tony Bose Teardrop Jack with Black Sea Dichrolam® Handles, Pattern #TB101028 SS, Case Item # 25115.
Charlie states that this knife has only been displayed, never carried or sharpened, and is in the original factory box with the standard paperwork. The knife looks better in the hand than in the photos. Charlie hopes the winner enjoys it; it's an eye catcher.
Black Sea Dichrolam®, as the name suggests, resembles a dark ocean of waves in an opaque surfacing material using a blue/green dichroic film on a dark background. Proprietary patterning creates occasional veins of deep copper reds and golds among blue waves, then shifts into deep violets at skewed viewing angles. Dichrolam® is the brainchild of furniture designer turned chemist, John Blazy.
Good Luck!

Congratulations to Jeepergeo whose pick of 742 was 17 away from the winning lottery number drawn last night of 759 but the closest without going over. A PM has been sent to claim the prize that Sasquach (Charlie) kindly donated. I'm sure that beautiful Case 2022 Tony Bose Teardrop Jack with Black Sea Dichrolam Handles will be on it's way to a new home shortly. Congratulations.

Thank you bestgear for organizing this Forum Member Knife Giveaway.
I'm the happy winner of the March 2025 Forum Member Knife Giveaway and send out thanks to member Sasquach (Charlie) for his donation. I feel like I won twice because the package from Sasquach arrived with not only the featured donation of the Case Bose Tear Drop, but also a Colonel Coon Barlow! As you can see in the photo below, both knives are beautiful and nice additions to my collection, which by the way did not already include either a Tear Drop or a Barlow!
Again, my thanks and appreciation go out to bestgear and Sasquach.

nope, no specific requirements but I always encourage potential donors to look at prior month’s giveaways (
https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/kn ... m.php?f=23) and plan to donate something commensurate.
If you are interested in being a donor, please PM me for more information.
