1000th Post Three in One Retro Giveaway!!!
on: February 27, 2014, 03:38:25 PM
To celebrate my ascension to a higher being, I hearby declare the advent of my 1000th Post Three in One Retro Giveaway.  All member of the forums in good standing with a minimum of 100 posts and an avatar who have not won an MTO giveaway in 6 months may participate and win.  Others who don't qualify may also be winners in life, but may not be winners in this endeavor.  Feel free to talk smack about the low (or high quality) of prizes, and participate in general banter.

In addition to the soon be be announced prizes, I will donate a sum equivalent to a 30 pack of cornfed macrobrew to MTO so that a good time can be had by all.  If the winners of this contest should feel moved to match the shipping cost of their prize in donations to MTO, this soon to be ascended being would be most pleased (this is not a requirement nor a recommendation- just an idea).

On the Ides of March, I will generate a number between 1 and 1,000,000 on Random.org.  The three participants closest to the pin will be deemed the winners and will be able to select their prize based on proximity to the fated number. 

***Special stipulation- to increase the gamesmanship of this contest I decree that one may change their chosen integer at any time before the Ides.  To avoid a chaotic mess, I ask that all parties copy/paste the list and make sure to erase their prior pick.  If there is an incidence of someone updating while you are updating, you must use their already submitted update.***

Now on to the first prize!

This item needs no introduction (actually I know very little of it, just that it has been on my shelf for ~15 years and has seen little use.  I am a bit afraid of it, but it seems to be in fine working order.  It merely needs a good cleaning, a clearing I am loathe to perform as I fear amputation ;P ).  I present to you the Leatherman Super Tool!





Further prizes to follow!
Lurking with a large collection of sharp knives!

The next prize is a bundle of Camillus (1965) and unknown equivalent knives.  The two older ones seem not have  blades of stainless, but they do have groovy brass liners.  This may or may not date them to the WWII era.  I don't really know, please inform us if you do.  I reserve the right to replace this prize if I were to learn that these knives are in fact rare and very valuable (unlikely I know).  I suspect that a skilled modder could make two useful knives out the the three.  Now before I waste more of your time, Camillus and friends (Please note, these three may or may not line up- I cannot promise anything):

And last but not least, I must include a Swiss Army Knife as that forum is where I spend my time.  I scoured my collection for the knife with the most added value potential.  Coming upon a long forgotten sack of SAKs, I discovered this long lost limited to 1 edition of Mother Nature Black Oxide Wenger Knife.  That is not a factory finish, I repeat, it is not a factory finish!  Time and neglect were both necessary to create such a masterpiece!  With a little bit of technical skill and some tools this unbroken Wenger can be brought back up to EDC or queen shelf level.  I feel a cellidor cutout would be very much in place filling in for the missing shield.  What say you?!?









(In the event that the winner of this item should be all thumbs and elbows and have no technical knowhow, I could be convinced to substitute a Victoria climber or somesuch.  I do think this could be pretty cool in the right hands though.)

Good luck to all and Godspeed!

Great prizes, great initiative!

Go for NLC!!!!

This is a very kind giveaway. Thank you. I honestly can't recall having won anything in the last 6 months, but I'm not absolutely certain, so I reserve the right to graciously step away should I discover that I am not eligible.

Thank you for the congratulations.  At first it seemed that my somewhat strict regulations made it difficult to get enough participants.  But we have more than three now, so I deem to keep the rules as written!  Sorry prior winners, you are losers in my book!!!

Also keep the numbers sequential for easy gamesmanship please (remember, you can change your number):

Yeah it is because I have been a major un-winner since joining here :(  Maybe it's because I'm un-Canadian :think:  Eh?

I had a win, but I'm pretty sure it was over 6 months ago.
Great prizes, I still miss my supertool even tho I gifted it to my brother and am glad to see he uses it.
Love the look of the old Wenger and with a little skill and trickery a replacement shield could be electro-etched and then cut from brass sheet.
Never had any contact with Camillus gear but those look cool.
