Emerson Knife Challenge: Close No. 3 Captains of Crush® Gripper, Win a Knife

The Emerson Knife Challenge continues: Close a No. 3 Captains of Crush gripper at their booth and win your choice from the Emerson production line of world renown tactical and outdoor knives.
"We haven't given one away yet," said Derek Russell, Emerson's sales manager, even though plenty of people have tried since Emerson first issued its challenge last year.
So far nobody has been able to touch the handles and claim the prize and, in fact, Russell said that nobody has even come close yet, other than Richard Sorin, who gave the No. 3 quite a squeeze at The Blade show last summer, but couldn't put it away.
For anyone who wants to try to win one of these superb hard-use knives, Emerson Knives will be at the Blade West show, in Costa Mesa, California next weekend, and for everyone on the East Coast, they will be at the New York Custom Knife Show in early November.
