The only way you're going to win is to buy tickets. Nice haul, winning seems to come in streaks. You're on a roll,

[Trav]

Really thinking about selling the knife, don't know that I need a $620 knife.

[Captain]

I do understand the knife is worth 620 bucks and there are a lot of people that would pay that for it, but me personally I would not pay 620 bucks for a bakers dozen of them.... in fact several bakers dozens of them.
I'm sure they are worth it and all that but......

Now the guns are worth every dollar and a GREAT prize! You are one lucky dude!

[Trav]

I am with you Cappy, I would never pay that for it but you can hardly find them in stock so a lot of people must be buying them.

[Captain]

Yep, I see those guys come through Bass Pro and pay MAJOR money for a knife like that and I'd be willing to bet they don't get off asphalt or concrete twice a year. It makes me shake my head.
If I was you and found someone that would pay anywhere north of 5 bills for that knife I'd turn it loose and use those five bills to buy MORE raffle tickets. You are picking up some major luck somewhere.
I'm jealous.

[Thumper]

DANG!! Just my luck. I saw one'a those at an estate sale last week for $1.00, but didn't pick it up. :slaphead

Sheesh, I've only ever won one firearm in my life time of putting in for raffles. It was a Ruger 10/22. You and JB seem to have all the luck.

Only thing I've ever won at a raffle was a hereford calf, years ago, at a county fair....all I had back then was an old '64 Ford car, so I loaded it up in the back seat....it had the scours, when I picked it up the next day, and the day'um thing sheeit all over my back seat.

Got it home, and called the vet to come out to treat the scours....after $160 of vet bills, and hosing down the back seat, the day'um thing died the next week....and, every time it rained, the inside of the car smelled like calf sheeit. ;)

I no longer buy raffle tickets....I figure I come out cheaper, just making a donation. ;)

The only thing I've ever won at a banquet was a silent auction. And that was a shotgun I've never shot. And that's not 'winning'. That was just a fat donation.

A $600 knife?! Damn!
That's worse than a $300 flashlight.

[BarryBobPosthole]

But its tacticool! Like the Atomic Lantern!
BKB

[Big Muddy]

Ha, it's prolly $50 bucks for the knife and $550 to find somebody to sharpen it.. ;)

[BarryBobPosthole]

I guarantee I could break the tip off in a phillips head screw just as fast as I could a twenty dollar one.

High as ammo is now that might be the way of the future.

[Booger]

If it was a good point you would not have broke it off in that phillips head screw. Who's the noticer now assholes?

[Thumper]

Ha ha ha ha! Good point Booger. (No pun intended) 😉

So, how's retirement treatin' ya' buddy?

[Booger]

Pretty damn sweet. Getting things in order right now to go bream fishing in the morning. Good turkey season. We kilt 5. Lots of breamses types fishes and some bassesses mixed in. Not doing much of nothing.
