Title: What's in a number? It's Def's Birthday Thread
Post by: Grant Lamontagne on October 19, 2018, 01:27:55 PM
It's my birthday (almost) and you know what that means! 

I am well known for doing things backwards, so for my birthday I am going to give YOU a present!  Well, some of you anyway!

Since I am going to be 44 tomorrow (October 20th) which is a Saturday I have decided to celebrate all weekend, and I want all of you to celebrate with me- after all, we have a few members with birthdays over the next few days, we can all celebrate as one! 

To help everyone get in the mood, I am going to give away THREE of the brand spanking new AXEM 4.0 Tools from Steel Life (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,78867.0.html) to a lucky winner!  One will be given away each day this weekend, to be drawn the following morning!

(http://gallery.multitool.org/var/resizes/Steel-Life/AXEM-4.0/AXEM%20%2812%29.jpg?m=1537268326)

You could be one of the very first people to get your hands on one of these tools and try it out absolutely free before anyone else gets one!   :woohoo:

All you have to do to enter is wish me a happy birthday in this thread and post a picture of the knife or tool that you EDC the most!  Don't post old pics though, take a new one- it's a celebration after all, and you aren't paying to have the film developed!   :pok:

I'll pick today's winner tomorrow morning, Saturday's winner on Sunday morning and Sunday's winner on Monday morning, so keep checking back to see if your name is drawn!

And, if you don't win (for some reason) you can still pick up an AXEM 4.0 (and anything else you like!) when you use the code BIRTHDAY in The Multitool.org Store (https://store.multitool.org/) to get 10% off everything until the end of October!

The way to make my birthday a happy one is to make sure all of my friends are happy too!   :tu:

A most exquisite birthday to you Sir! I had guessed a much, much lower age, but then again, at my advanced age all those younger than me look very young indeed :hatsoff:

My current EDC, but that varies with whatever challenges I might be engaged in at any given moment:

For almost a week every year, you get to be as old as me - you poor sod! Thankfully you don't have to endure it long, and in a few days, you'll be able to declare you're younger than me again  :D

Hope you have a good one feller  :tu:

Please exempt me from the drawer, as I'd rather it go to someone more active, who can actually get some use/fun from it. It would just be wasted on a couch potato like me :salute:

If you insist, I will of course gratefully accept, and attempt to put it through it's paces somehow. Maybe I can elevate the notion of armchair survivalist to a new level - sawing through overcooked sausage, and spear fishing chocolate hobnobs.  :D Joking aside, I'm sure I can find use for that on my new hobby desk, after all, it has got a useful looking package opener, handy scraper, and that arrowhead looks like it may have real potential as a marking knife  :salute: As we know, multitools aren't limited by their advertised functions, but by our own imagination and ingenuity  :tu:

Fact is, everyone deserves to play, whether they like it or not.  I've already won, what with all of you (ok, some of you trophies may be a bit worse for the wear and tarnished, but I won't hold it against you!) being here to celebrate the day with me, in spirit if nothing else, so it only makes sense that I give back to all of you.

With that in mind, the second winner is:

What matters most of all though is your birthday, and I hope you had yourself an excellent day, my friend  :cheers: Once again, a very happy birthday to you, and enjoy the rest of the birthday weekend  :salute:

I know you said to exempt you, but you should know by now that I never listen to a word you say!  :D

Fact is, everyone deserves to play, whether they like it or not.  I've already won, what with all of you (ok, some of you trophies may be a bit worse for the wear and tarnished, but I won't hold it against you!) being here to celebrate the day with me, in spirit if nothing else, so it only makes sense that I give back to all of you.

With that in mind, the second winner is:

Bet you thought the winner was going to be listed here!  Haha, fooled you!  Blame Santos for this terrible joke!

Happy birthday!

My 50th is it the 24th.

My current esc is a Keyshawn Pico.

Good enough for boxes and rope!

Enjoy your day!

Just in time for your birthday Peter!  Happy birthday man!

Really?!

And we have our third winner, and it looks like a fellow enthusiast of the Yellow Compact!   :tu:

Happy birthday Grant, it was mine yesterday and I celebrated by securing my BYSAK thanks to Syem.
Cheers!

This is a terrible thing to say, but in the beginning I sort of wrote it off as another tool that probably wasn't going to go anywhere.  I almost brushed them off when they first contacted me, because I assumed it was just another silly Kickstarter idea.  I thought at the very least I'd see if I could get one for testing, then post a silly review about using it to try and survive on a deserted island or something, but the more I see of it, the more I am legitimately liking the tool, and that's why I decided to sign up to distribute their products.  The fact is, we are now officially in charge of their products for all of North America, which is pretty darned cool.  Hell, some brands (won't mention which ones, but they don't include Victorinox, Gerber or SOG) won't let us sign up as an authorized dealer because I don't have a brick and mortar storefront, so being a distributor for a new brand is extra exciting.

I don't know if you saw the latest video, but it shows a guy using a log to pound it into some bamboo to use as an axe, inside the bamboo handle, rather than just tying it on the outside as we were all expecting.  It's got to be able to take a bit of a pounding as an axe, and hammering it into the bamboo handle is certainly indicative of it's ability to stand up to some punishment.
