2nd Pass Around Knife Rules and Regs...

[shooter_250]

i have a suggestion for the swap idea...a third person..this will cost a few more dollars in shipping...however...both partys send thier in this case, knife to a designated person...that person determines both knives are of an "equal" value,,,then he completes the swap...just a suggestion...

on the other hand...it is a damn shame to see what has just occured...instead of a group of folks getting together and making a plan,,,they now look at each other with no offense intended and ask,,,how can we be sure i'll get my knife back?...a damn crying shame...

in the Marines we were taught and i truly believe, there is ALWAYS that 10%....

I'm sorry i almost got off on another rant...i again apologize to the ladys, the mods and the other forum members...i give you my word i will try very hard not to rant...

Thank you all for your patience with me...

God Bless

It's not so much in getting an equal swap in most cases. I make knives and have no problem swapping a fellow member that I am matched up with a knife that cost less than the custom I make. By setting limits and styles you are able to keep everything on the level.

I would get more enjoyment knowing the person that received the knife I send is tickled and happy with a handmade knife for them. There are many on this forum that make knives. We could make a knife then post it. Once a deadline has been reached all those that made a knife and posted it would be entered and names drawn.

The fun here is that most anyone can make or mod a knife and sheath. This way no one is left out.

There have been several give aways by drawing set up by various folks.

I am in however I can help but if the members decide not too that is fine too

[RangerXanatos]

Then if we do, will it be a handmade knife, production knife of certain value, modified knife, fixed or folding knife, or all of the above?

Keep me posted on where we go with this swap. I have been in quite a few of these, and has always been good for all involved.

Hi everyone. I know some of you have been looking for the passaround knife. The bushman. It was a while ago that my nephew was staying with me. He came to me and say that he lost one of my knives. He lost the bushman. He didn't remember where he set it down in the grass. I would like to appolagize on his part for losing the knife, and on mine for not posing this for so long. It was recently brought to my attention and I completly forgot about it till now. Again, I'm sorry.

I think it's great that u came back to admit what happened. I also can't believe how long that knife floated around.

Consider replacing it.

[Sarge47]

Consider replacing it.

I agree with klkak.

[klkak]

I agree with klkak.

If I loaned something to someone and while in their procession it was lost, broken or stolen I would expect them to replace it.

The 10% rule can be a hard one to learn. But when you learn it you never forget it

[COWBOYSURVIVAL]

I was on the list...I tested the bushman and added my firestarters and a chicago bolt to hold the sheath together. I agree, you should replace it...

[flandersander]

I'll see if I can pick one up for a decent price, and pass it along.

Here is a good source for them. http://safezonellc.com/bbbushman.html You'll have to do the best you can on recreating all of the items that everybody added to it though. To save a little on shipping, have it delivered directly to the next person on the list and then just send a package with the extras.

Good news is crash, that I've still got everything except the blade. So it won't be a problem.

[crashdive123]

Cool. Should be an easy fix then.

[crashdive123]

It's been almost two weeks - how's that replacement coming?

[hoosierarcher]

Here's an idea for the next time a pass around knife or other piece of gear offer is made. Have everyone that wants on the lists pay a security deposit equal to the replacement cost of the item plus the s&h. If the item moves from you to the next person without a hitch you get your deposit back. The item goes missing somehow while in your care you lose your deposit.

I'd prefer to just deal with honest, responsible people.
