The First-Ever Blades By Crank Mega Raffle

The First-Ever Blades By Crank Mega Raffle

I’ve done giveaways before, but nothing like this. For the first time ever, I’m running a Blades By Crank Mega Raffle — and I’m putting up 5 knives worth over $1,250 for grabs.

This isn’t just a raffle. It’s something special to me, because it ties together two of my biggest passions: jiu-jitsu and blades.


🎁 What’s Up for Grabs

Here’s what’s on the line for just $10 a ticket:

  • Japanese Pripara Knife – $180 value

  • Japanese Mattiyu Gyuto Chef Knife – $220 value

  • Achugao CRANKChete – $250 value

  • Heavy Duty Cleaver (Ocean Artwork Edition) – $180 value
    • German steel with Chamorro fishing lifestyle artwork embossed right into the blade.

  • Guåfi Chef Knife – $220 value
    • Japanese steel with a burned Guåfi wood handle finish, bold and one-of-a-kind.

These knives aren’t sitting on the shop shelves. They’re rare, unreleased, and crafted to stand out — pieces that carry both performance and story.

❤️ Why I’m Doing This

This raffle isn’t just about the knives — it’s also about helping my family reach a huge milestone.

This November, my boys Franklin and Rocky, my wife Sarah, and I will be competing in Japan at three IBJJF tournaments:

  • Asian Kids IBJJF Championship
  • East Japan International Open
  • Master International Asia Championship

It’s Franklin and Rocky’s first-ever international jiu-jitsu competition, Sarah’s debut overseas, and my own return to the mats internationally. We’ve been training daily, grinding, and pushing ourselves — and this trip is the next big step in our journey.

That’s why I wanted to give this raffle real weight. These knives mean something to me, and I wanted them to mean something for this fundraiser too.


⚡ Don’t Miss Out

$10 could land you a one-of-a-kind blade worth $250. And every ticket you grab helps us step onto the mats in Japan, representing Guam, the Marianas, and our familia.

Thank you for the love, the support, and for always being part of this journey with us.
