Ok Here we go. I am raffling off this handcrafted knife and sheath. This knife was a collaboration between Jerbear(Jerry) and I. I drew up some Ideas and he decided what he wanted and this is what we ended up with. I finished this knife on December 3rd and as we know, I was unable to deliver it to him.
My heart was broken yesterday morning as I listened to the details of all that happened on my radio, I am a Volunteer Fireman with the Glenwood Fire Department. A flood of emotions went through my mind as I thought about who Jerry was. Jerry was a "One of a Kind" kinda guy. Just read through the post "Jerbear Passed Away" and if you never had the chance to meet him, you'll get a glimpse into who he was. This knife is like Jerry, "One of a Kind" and will remain that way. It will be 1 of 1.
So here it is, raffle tickets are $20 a piece. The raffle will go until 9 PM Monday night (16th), maybe longer if need be. I will put all the tickets in a hat and draw a name and the lucky winner will own this knife and always be reminded that Jerry was a great guy. ALL proceeds from this raffle will go to Jerry's wife.
Knife Details:
Blade steel: High Carbon 1084
Handle material: Cocobolo/buffalo horn with red liner and 3/16 brass pins
(Sheath is LH and Jerry was a southpaw :) )
Blade length = 3.25"
OAL = 7.75"
Edge is hand done with a Lansky sharpening system and then finished on a leather strop(It is very sharp)
Sheath is handcrafted/hand stitched using 8/9 ounce leather
If you desire to purchase a ticket or multiple tickets($20 each), post your user name and how many tickets you want here. Then I will send you a PM on how to send payment.
God Bless, Wazukie

Please remember that if you are going to send the money via PayPal, send it a a "personal transfer" and not as a purchase. That way there is no fee charged and Cathie gets the max benefit from this raffle.
Thanks ALL!

2 tickets please! Just saw this!!

Ok, I signed up way back in the beginning when there wasn't so much competition. How many tickets does one need to buy to ensure a win? :dunno: just kidding. Great job fellow members :tup:
-
This is done unless Butch wants to keep it rolling. Wazukie??
-
I make the motion to keep it going with a new date and dollar goal.
-
It would be good to let it go at least one more day. Since it got started last Friday morning, many people may not have seen it yet. I suspect a lot of members don't get online much on the weekends. One or two more week days would likely sell a whole lot more tickets. :dunno:
But that's up to the gentleman who started this.

Agreed! Also, sticky's get overlooked easily, so if they aren't to the right in the Recent Topics its easy to miss. I say give it a day or two and lets hit $3K!
-
I can personally tell all of you that the gesture of love and caring during a time like this is worth more than any amount of money raised. Dam proud of my huntwa family once again! :tup:
-
Ok, I am going to let this go until 5PM tomorrow(Wednesday 18th. I need time to get the money in. I'd like to get it to her before Christmas.

Wazukie, I'll take the 40. Only thing is if I win I would like Cathie to have the knife.
If for some reason she doesn't want it to pass along to a relative or close friend that would appreciate it, run another raffle or what makes sense.

Thanks guys, I'm attaching a pic of a knife my dad picked up in Broadbent, OR from G. Little not long before dad passed away on St. Patrick's Day 1999.
I try to have it with me on all of my hunts. A knife is a very personal piece and one that is passed along is even more special.
I'm very fortunate to have found this site and it gives great pleasure to all of us, me included. I'm happy to be in a position to help in Jerry's memory for Cathie.
Merry Christmas to all of you!
Wazukie PayPal sent, thank you for your contribution of the knife.

I guess I have had my head in the sand cuz I completely missed this thread. Sorry!!!! :(
I'm in for 10 please. Same here, the knife stays in the family where it belongs.

Thanks 6x6in6, you have a PM
I want everyone to know that the idea of giving the knife to Cathie is an incredibly selfless thing to do :tup: especially in light of the selfish world we live in today.
I would also like to say that before this raffle ever became a reality, I met with Cathie and discussed this with her. I told her the knife was her's to do with what she willed.
To receive such an out-pouring of love and generosity, is an incredible thing.
Thanks Hunt-Wa!

So all the tickets were put in a big mixing bowl, mixed up very well, and my daughter drew the winning ticket. But, I am going to leave you all in suspense until Monday :chuckle: :chuckle:

That's just cruel.

I know, but there are several people that I have not received any money from and on that has not responded to my PM's. It isn't that I don;t rust everyone on here, I just want to give everyone the same chance.
Besides, suspense can be fun, lol

Thats what i was thinking. :dunno: kinda narrows it down doesn't it?

Makes sense to do that if you haven't received all the money.. That way if someone didn't win they just don't say screw it I won't send money then.. Not that anyone would, but just makes sense..

Its pretty amazing how a goup of people can come together to raise $ for some one in need. I never knew Jerry but from all the comments about his desire to give back with his love of turkey hunting, something just urged my to send a few bucks. I may have to take up turkey hunting and give it its first blood the right way. The Ammount of $ raised on this raffle was awesome. Wazukie you did a great job putting this on.
-
Congratulations bud...
-
All right, I just got back from Cathie's. I presented her a Cashiers Check for $3140.00
I will tell you that each and everyone of you touched her heart and she sends a very grateful THANK YOU to you all.
Special T, this spring if you and I can hook up during the Turkey season here, I think we could hunt Jerry's traditional hunting land in his honor.
Congratz to you all, you are amazing.

Great job Wazukie honoring Jerbear! :tup:
-
Pastor Butch - You did an OUTSTANDING JOB putting the raffle together!!!!! I'm so happy to have contributed to help "Jerry's Lady". Cathie is an AWESOME LADY, and Jerry was really blessed to have her. All of us that can need to be there for her this spring when she scatters Jerry's ashes. I fully intend to be there to support her.
-
Congrats Special T!!
Give Cathie a big hug from all of us! :'(
-
The only way this could have turned out better is if Jerbear could have known about it. Great job Wazukie!

Thank YA ALL and Merry Christmas!
