Blacksmith Bag Giveaway: WINNER

The Perth Knife Show is next weekend the 4th and 5th of Feb 2023 at the Esplanada Hotel in Freemantle, WA.

The KAA and Nordic Edge is doing a giveaway for the show on the Perth Knife Show Facebook Page, tag a mate to each of you win a Blacksmith Tool bag: LINK to facebook page

We thought we'd do an additional giveaway of one more toolbag:

• Upload a photo of yourself making something or 
• Upload a photo of something you have made
• with tools or supplies from Nordic Edge
• bonus points if including the Nordic Edge logo

We ran this on the Nordic Edge Facebook and Instagram pages, here are some of entrants:
