Pure Luck!!

[Yukon227]

Yesterday, after a family get-together, we stopped at a gas station on the way home. I went in for drinks and stood at the rear passenger side window and used my SOG Trident to open the plastic on my daughters drink. Like an IDIOT I sat the knife, OPEN, on top of the Jeep. Gave her the drink and some crackers, hopped in and drove almost 20 miles home. An hour later I needed to open fireworks....no knife
I start looking around the house and inside the Jeep, no luck, I look on top of the Jeep and there it is, EXACTLY as I left it. I felt like an idiot for a few minutes but it was pure dumb luck that I still have that knife!

Well, at least it wasn't KNIVES valued in excess of $500! I know somebody on INGO who did that.

Someone with a pink goatee...?????

 

[Bradsknives]

This must only happen with guys that drive Jeeps!

And I didn't have to run up and down the back roads hoping to find em this time!

Wow, don't you just hate those knife moments when your whole life passes in front of your eyes? I don't know about the knife fairy; sounds more like some serious karma. You might want to buy a lottery ticket

Hmm, the idea of putting some magnets in the grips comes to mind.

it's the jeeps man, they can't let knives go.

That's good karma......

I had a similar issue last year...
We were fishing from a bridge, I leaned against the guard rail and heard a metallic clunk...looked down in time to see my knife hitting the water(10ft deep water).
I went back to the house and got a big magnet and some para cord. A half hour of "fishing" and I pulled my knife in...

It's true. I drove in my Wrangler for roughly 15 miles with my decked out Remington 700 sitting on my hood, up by the windshield wipers. I was taking some buddies out to my range in Spencer and got in a hurry while loading everything up. To this day, I have no idea how it didn't fall off.
The conversation went
Me "Nick, do you remember loading up my 700?"
Nick "Ummm Levi.........., it's on the hood".
