2020 Winner

February 22, 2021

Congratulations to the lucky winner in Wisconsin of the 2020 Membership Knife for individuals joining or renewing during the year!  She won the beautiful Homeland donated by Smith & Wesson.

“I am thrilled to receive the AKTI Membership Knife, and I truly believe that AKTI is a wonderful organization. It does much to promote knife safety as well as ownership rights and responsibilities.”

Our sincere thank you to Smith & Wesson for this generous donation for an individual member who supports AKTI.

“This year’s winner has been a member of AKTI almost since our beginnings, joining in June 1999 at the Blade Show,” said Jan Billeb, Executive Director.  “We’re delighted that someone who has been such a long-time supporter has a new knife!”
