For those who may be interested (& I'm guessing that may be quite a lot of us), Smoky Mountain Knife Works is doing their annual 12 Days of Christmas sale -- & if you're reading this on Saturday, December 4, it's Day 4 of the sale.

They have some knives & other items on decent sale, along with a daily, advent-calendar-style special.  But for me, the really big thing is the free Fed Ex shipping with $39 purchase.  I'd be happier with no-minimum shipping, but let's face it, $39 is pretty easy to hit.  And with the increased shipping charges I've noticed with some retailers this season, it's even more worthwhile.  (Though it's worth noting that BladeHQ still appears to be doing $2.99 shipping with standard/non-oversized items.)

To be clear, I am not affiliated in any way with any knife retailer or manufacturer -- I'm just someone who likes to acquire knives & other edged items...  

That said, go check out the sale at SMKW!  https://www.smkw.com/12-days-of-christmas
