I have this knife with sheath....

1095 HC, 8" 3.5" blade, desert ironwood scales with nickel silver pins.

I was going over it today, getting it ready to post for sale but it kept fighting me on sharpening the edge, then the blade polish starting fighting me, then back to the edge, by the time I got it to slice paper (standard sharpness test) I lost about 1/8" off the edge. That makes me suspect the hardness of the edge or what used to be the edge, seems fine now but I am done messing with it and don't want to sell it.

BUT I have enough blades sitting in the cabinet already and don't need to add to it, so here is the deal.....I going to give it away for free to someone who has a young son or grandson that is in need of his first knife. If more than one member here wants it I will put everyone's name in a hat and draw one name out for the knife. I will let this run until Monday night then draw a name, just post "I want it" below to be added to the hat.

Gunner,
I would like an opportunity to give the knife to my 7 YO Grandson.
Please add my name to the group.
Regards,
Frank

Cool knife, could you put me in the hat . my grandson turns 14 years old in six days. Ethan would love a custom made knife.

Good for you.

This is a great offer and good for you gunner! I would like to add my name to the list as my oldest grandson Kyle is becoming quite the deer hunter. Thanks Dennis

..with papa this season. Put my name in the hat, please. Thanks!

That's my favorite pattern.

Thanks everyone for the interest, I assigned everyone a number than ran the random.org generator and it picked Fivegunner as the winner, please shoot me an email to the knife related address below and I will get the knife/sheath boxed up and mailed out.
