Also to keep this fair and equal for all, only 1 name per member (member can donate win to another member).

Does that mean a nominated name can only appear once on the list and a member can only nominate 1 person

Or can a member nominate two or more members

Thanks

Nominated person can nominate other member but same person cant nominate twice or be nominated twice. It gives everyone fair change if it happens only by nomination. To get your name twice on GAW participation list you need donate least 10$ to forum and add your name on list also mentioning that you have donated. There is reason for this kind system (at least for me thats keep better track nominated and nominators)

So I am asking for forgiveness now rather than permission
I have put in $20 - so I think I get another two nominations
I have put them in the list - If this breaks the rules - Pleas remove the names and the funds can go into the general kitty

Antii stated a few posts above that you can only nominate one person and you already nominated Nix. You can nominate yourself once per $10 donated.

Yea as i stated before you can nominate only once and can be nominated once, you can add your own name to list (participate for GAW) when you donate but also that can be happened once. There is good reason why i maded rules for this GAW, i am really sorry if rules were bit unclear, i tried my best to explain rules but i can honestly underatand if rules were confusing.

OK, got it this morning ! Anti, you are the bee's knees ! This knife was strapped to the enveloppe with so much duck tape ; with the Champ and the tape I have had all I need to construct a makeshift shed !

 :climber:

I'm really glad to have won of course, but even more because it is the first SAK I've ever had in hand that has :
• over 2 layers
• pliers, a pen, an inline Phillips, full size file, needle, magnifying glass, scraper, fish scale or eyeglass SD. Seriously, that thing is heavy with (new for me) tools !
• a pouch (and it has a two-way belt loop, too !)
• did I mention these are my first pliers SAK !?!?!

This is more than just another SAK ; it's my real first serious incursion in SAKland. Up until now, my only SAK was a 84mm Tinker Small.

First thoughts after playin with it for a couple of minutes :
• I now understand what you guys mean when you talk about the 91mm scissors. Wow !
• That file is really agressive ! I'm used to the classic nail file…  :D
• An inline Phillips seems MUCH more useful than the back one !
• The pen is a nice touch. I saw on youtube one can make it into a full size knife using the hook.  ;)
• Coming from the plier multitool world, the pliers first looked really too small, but actually feel surprisingly solid . I'll carry this for a while and see if it gets me where my trusty PST2 can go.
• I really like the idea of having a mag glass. I'll see if I ever use it.

I'll carry it for a while and will get back to you with some thoughts. I don't promise daily photos like in the challenges. I really like the challenges, except the part where I have to take and post a pic each day. I'm not much of a smartphone guy, so taking a picture everyday means having to borrow someone else's phone…  :-\ But I'll do what I can.
