It's my birthday and I'll give stuff away if I want to.... give stuff away if I want to..... give stuff away if I want to..... You'd give stuff away too if it happened to you!
Ok, now that I am going to have that song stuck in my head all day.... :facepalm:
Here's this year's Birthday Extravaganza Giveaway:
It's a SOG PowerPlay with molded sheath, which I personally prefer over their nylon sheath because it's easy to clip on to virtually anything. The nylon sheath is actually really good too, but in this instance the molded nylon one is pretty sweet!
How are you going to get this excellent tool? Well, this year I am 43 years old, and I scoured the internet looking at numerology sites, scientific sites, occult sites and so on and found absolutely nothing special about the number 43 that I could use as a gimmick for the giveaway, so to commemorate that there's nothing at all special about being 43, I am calling it the Def's 43 Nothing Special Birthday Extravaganza!
Here's what you have to do- just make a post wishing me a happy birthday (since I'm so narcissistic I want everyone to participate!) and you are entered into the draw I will make tomorrow morning (October 21st) for the SOG PowerPlay!
As a special little twist (you know, since there's nothing special this year! :P) if you post a pic of your EDC in your happy birthday post, I will throw in a little extra surprise if you win. Only those who post their EDC pic will be eligible to win the extra, whatever it is. :D
Seriously? Isn't the free tool enough?
NOPE!
Because here is something extra- for the next 24 hours, everything in The Multitool.org Store (https://store.multitool.org/) is 10% off when you use the code BIRTHDAY at checkout! No fooling!
I don't know what else to say, but that all of this seems like a pretty exceptional birthday celebration for a nothing special birthday to me! :D

Happy birthday Grant! I rarely post but I regularly read. The giveaway is a nice gesture, and if the latest PowerPlay is as robust as my trusty old SOG, then its new owner is in for many years of dependability.

Boss, your birthday is like the site's birthday, so a HAPPY BIRTHDAY and Many, many more to you and your place!! :cheers:

My pocket inhabitant today is this knife. It's not a Victorinox or Wenger, but was my grandfather's. Since he was in the Swiss Army, it seems like it ought to qualify as a Swiss Army Knife.

Happy Birthday, Grant. I don't really know you but I see what you did here and appreciate it.
Then again, I was just fine - perfectly satisfied - with my Super Tinker and Chinese knockoff PST, and my PSTII for years. Near 30 years in the case of the Super Tinker.
Until I found this place. Now I have 8 Leathermans and 5 Victorinox Swiss Army knives. Smurf almighty, now even my DOG carries his own Classic.

I'm seeing a few names here that I haven't seen in a while, and some new ones!
It's great to see some of you back, and for you new folks, it's great to have you! Feel free to stick around a bit and let us know what you like and don't like!
As a bit of an aside, as I often do, I have to say that I consider it a huge failing on my part that I don't know as many members as I should, and even less as well as I should. In the early days when we started the forum I knew many of the early inhabitants from other forums, and the "new" guys back then were easier to keep up with. Over the years the forum has grown to well over 5,000 members, which is a pretty solid number as we tend to purge the fake accounts on a regular basis. Because of this I just don't have the time to get to know everyone, but I'll be smurfed if I ever stop trying.
Everyone here is partly responsible for how great this forum is- and it is great to see you all.

I did indeed- Megan got me a nice set of Bluetooth headphones, which is perfect because mine have just crapped out and I have been humming and hawing about whether I wanted to spend the money on a replacement set. :D
She also got me a Dancing Groot Pop character and a cool Star Wars shirt. I'll post pics later (and details of the headset in the BT Headphones thread (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,74156.0.html)) but for now here's a generic stock photo of Groot:
