I lost a uncle henry fixed blade in the sheath when it fell out of my pack while elk hunting in colorado. 5 years later hunting the same area and stepping across a stream there it was laying under water . it was rusted and pitted . I took it home ,put it on the buffing wheel and got the rust off . still pitted but I used it many times since

That pitting is just character and memories.

yep...lost my favorite not long ago. I determined my problem is that I always carried it in my pocket where there is usually a large 'ball of keys' Dragging out the keys would sometimes pull the knife with it and it would fall without me knowing. My solution was to designate my right front pocket for knives and guns only.

Is it just me or do you guys also lose knives? I bought a Begg this summer and I used it today and can't remember where I put it.

Gosh that is frustrating. :censored: I hope it is just me and you guys are smart enough to not make these mistakes.
It's just you,I'm 63 and I'm still carrying a knife I got for my 16th birthday
