*The* Gift-It-On Thread

Still not arrived.... why not make it a rule until the person receives the swap the next in line does not put a offer in

Stalls the thread for too long. Seen 10 offers (ish) go through in a day before
If I've had a parcel get lost that I've posted, I make something else up (it is a goodwill thread after all). If a parcel hasn't arrived when sent to me, I just right it off and wait for another good offer.
If anyone does it regularly by not sending out their gift it's soon spotted and no-one would send them anything or let them claim the gift

Bump - no takers?

Looks like the catapult 's not as popular as I'd hoped...

I'll add something else later, when I get home.

Do you have any sizes for the knife.

 

[nicksteele1990]

Oh yeah! 3 inch blade, locking, so not legal EDC without a good reason.

 

[Robbi]

FOX are very good knives.

 

[Magentus]

I'll go for it thanks! Looks like a nice lockback.

Up from me is a really good little Backpacking guide by Hugh McManners:
