Giveaway
on: January 12, 2018, 04:05:23 AM
So, about two months ago I found a SAK on the restroom counter at work. I turned it into the lost and found and didn't think anything of it until today. Apparently they hold the items for two months, and if no one claims them, they give it to the finder. So I became the proud owner of a lightly used huntsman. Only thing is, I don't have any need for it. I don't like cellidor or four layer knives for that matter. So, I'm gonna give it away and maybe have a little fun in the process. Note, I did clean it thoroughly since I found it in the restroom!  :o

To enter, post a picture using the hook on a SAK (which should also qualify you for the merit badge, if you dont have it) and keep a running list of your name. Like this:

1 - contestant #1
2 - contestant #2
3 - etc

On noon EST this Sunday, I'll use random.org to pick a winner.

Here are a couple pics of the prize and a Pic of me trying to use the hook.

Sounds great. Thank you for doing this. I’ll post later with pics. I have my PX on me now, my SAKs with the hook are at home.

Interesting uses! I completely forgot about the hook on the spirit. Until now, I didn't think I had a SAK with a hook, but the spirit did all this time  :facepalm: :D

Not carrying any of my hooked SAKs today, probably won't enter the draw. Good luck to the contestants!

Very nice of you Gustopher, and good luck to the contestants. I truly mean no offense, but I will not be entering. I have a 1974 Mountaineer - very similar to the Huntsman - and my disdain for the hook is well documented. But for those who like the hook, or don't care either way, this is a chance at a nice knife.

"Hooked by the Spirt"



001 - Douglas

Is that a Tinker or did they make those in Super Tinker options Doug? Yours seems to have one more small humpback than mine. Metal BSA inlay, right? I have a black BSA metal inlay Tinker with the big V on the tang, no can key. Nice and thin. I like to carry it paired with a PS4 or PSTII or even a Rebar.

Nice! I'd have loved a Swiss army knife to play with at that age.

When I first saw the pic, his nose looked a bit weird... Only when I saw the pic in full size, did I realise it's his thumb.

Cool, that's the first use I've seen for the hook that I could actually see myself doing. With short finger nails, some times those pop top rings are a pain.
