I'm lost with out you, please come back to me...

[cyprant]

I lost the knife that has been with me every day for the last 2 years... it was at the birth of my son and I actually whipped it out and asked to cut the cord with it... (no one else thought it was a good idea) it wasn't a perfect knife but it was mine. Brad even spent over an hour with me helping me choose the right knife... I used that knife on my fist squirrel hunt to put the sight back on my rifle when it fell off. We hung out on the picnic table once a week getting sharpened... it was a Kershaw speed form II with Elmax steel

And to top it off my EDC flash light is sitting in my tree stand 3.5 away and I can't seem to find the time get down there... my pockets are empty and so is my heart...




I know! A little dramatic, but hey...

I completely understand how you feel. Who knows, maybe it'll turn up. Look in the couch cushions, and check around the seats in your vehicle.

 

[warthog]

Maybe buy a new on just like it. It won't be the same, I know. The love will come in time though. It isn't easy but give it time.

I have lost two knives this year. One was an expensive Al Mar folder and the other a custom fixed blade. I can say a very good single malt was helpful - for a short time. But, I have a hole inside of me now.

You cant tell that story without telling us what kind of knife it was!!!

I've carried my Kershaw for several years. I lose it often but it always pops back up. It's a strange feeling not having it clipped to my pocket in the meantime.

As bad as it feels to lose a good knife, it feels even better if and when you find it again!

Still with out it...

I was pretty steamed the last time I remember putting it in my pocket...

A man that will remain nameless decided he would help me out and sharpen my knife for me after he borrowed it for a task... (knife is kept sharp on a spiderco sharp maker and strop.) He scratched the hell out of both sides of the blade while free handing on a stone. Completely missing the edge of the knife... this highly respected guy has been an outdoorsman for over 60 years and I couldn't believe he did that to my knife... it really does make me fell less "inadequate" when it comes to sharpening my knifes though.... I used to be slightly ashamed to need a "sharpener for dummies" but its gives great results...

Any ways, hope it shows up soon..

I know how you probably feel. I'm getting quite attached to my Spyderco Centofante 3 with VG-10 steel. I haven't had a knife for awhile that takes an edge so well as this knife. I'm a total convert in regards to getting knives with quality steel.

January 3rd, 2004 I myself was in the same position...My Cold Steel Voyager, constant companion for 15 years or so was in my pocket in the delivery room...I turned to the Doctor and said, "Can I cut the umbilical cord with my knife?" The Doctor said "Absolutley..Just put it in the tray and I will sterilize it with the rest of the instruments.." I was so happy, a tender moment with my knife and my newborn...Years later when I presented it to her would it be this Hallmark moment...Being a good spouse I decided to glance at my beautiful bride, who was huffing and puffing, legs wide open, preparing to bring forth my beautiful daughter...She was looking at me...No words being spoken as befits a marriage built on love, trust, and understanding...No words needed to be spoken actually...The look was clear...it was, "Are you ____ing serious???? Are you ____ing kidding me?"

I looked at the Doctor as I picked up my Voyager off of the tray...."Nah...I am good."

It comes up every now and again...Usually when her and a couple of friends are trying to determine whose husband is the biggest redneck....She wins after repeating that story....

I lost a paramilitary 2 for 8 months. Tore the house upside down more than a few times, and my wife found it in the couch. There's hope for you!
