IKC, lets help the disaster relief and bid on a great knife
Bid on the GEC Disaster Relief Auction Knife!!!!
A while back Great Eastern Cutlery donated a couple of knives to be auctioned off to help raise funds for the tornado and flood victims in the southern states. Between field trips, rendezvous', etc, the second knife hasn't been put up for auction yet. After hearing the news story yesterday that FEMA is suspending or limiting funding to Missouri due to the recent hurricane on the East coast, it's definitely time to try to raise some more cash to help out.
It's been a particularly tough year financially for a lot of the country and these natural disasters have made some of the problems even worse. Great Eastern has made similar donations in the past which I think is incredibly generous on their part. And to try to sweeten the deal a bit more, I'm adding a $50 TSA Knives gift certificate to the auction.
Here's what we've got....
#563311 Tidioute Weaver Jack, Factory Test Production Run, serial #02 of 11 knives finished with Lace Wood Handles.
So the winning bidder will receive the knife AND a $50 TSA Knives store gift certificate. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross or the Salvation Army (winning bidders choice). To place a bid, simply "Leave a Comment" to this post with your bid amount. Bids will be accepted until 6:00PM CST Monday September 5, 2011. Spread the word, tell your friends, bid high and bid often!!!

Ah! Thanks for the heads up Rob. I used the link to TSA above and entered a bid. I think it may take awhile to appear. Best regards.
