That is now the question, setting up the Raffle, and which organization to send the proceeds to. Also, who can run the raffle (I want a ticket on this one too)!

Discussions? Ideas?

Well, the knife looks great carl--nice work on those sheaths!

However, I'd hold off on the raffle until we see how the one I'm liquidating this weekend goes. My post here offering chances on it has resulted in ZERO responses in the few days it's been posted. Maybe it's the economy but $10 didn't seem like too much to me--I must have done something wrong.

I hope the show does better. My greatest fear is selling seven or eight chances and sending a check to the recipient for $70-$80. It's a great knife, but no one seems interested.

I was going to grab one, but the timing didn't allow it. I don't do business with paypal (one really bad experience with a seller, paypal didn't care), and didn't have time to get a check to you.

But yeah, is hard right now. My company just did some major restructuring, some worried individuals until it was all over.

I know the people involved can't buy tickets( I'd take one)
Have you posted links in the other forums. Alot of people only read a few forums.
I seldom stray from 3 that I regularly read.

Andy, I don't see why you can't. I would say the only limit would be the one person drawing shouldn't buy a ticket for that drawing. Everyone else should be free to buy all they want (ie more money to the cause). My name would have been in if I would have had time to get the check to Andy.

Even with that, if Andy G. got someone else to pull the winner from a hat, I would be comfortable with his name in that hat.

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

I got a call from a local engraver who was going to put the artists names on the end of the handle. After one letter, I got a call saying that it couldn't be done. I guess I'll buff it out and re-polish--it'll be sold unmarked.

At this point, anyone who wants a chance can buy one. If you tell me a check's on the way, that's good enough for me. I will refrain as I'm handling the drawing. I will try to photograph the drawing for posting here.
