Brad Lilly
Moderator and Awards Boss
I thought I should try to get a little discussion going about the awards. I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel but I thought it might be useful to see how everyone feels about the awards.
Right now we have these categories
1 NON TACTICAL FIXED BLADE Under 10" (Over all)
2 NON TACTICAL FIXED BLADE 10" and longer (Over all)
3 BEST FORUM EDUCATOR
4 BEST NEW BUILDER
5 TACTICAL FOLDER
6 NON TACTICAL FOLDERS
7 KITCHEN KNIVES
8 TOP DOG
9 NEO TRIBAL / BUSHCRAFT / HAWKS, AXES
10 LEATHERWORKS
11 TACTICAL FIXED BLADE
12 KIT KNIVES AND BLADE BLANKS
The rules are pretty simple but to go over them
1 Anyone can be nominated who is a member here.
2 The knife nominated must be made in the year of the awards.
3 Each member can only be in two categories
4 You can nominate your self
Specific to some sections
New builder should be someone who started in the given year.
Topdog should be the one who really goes the extra mile to make everyone welcome and is someone you feel promotes what you value here
What do you guys think? Should we make changes to our format? If you did not vote in the awards can you tell us why?
