The subject line of this posting is as close as I can come to the noise I made about 10 minutes ago when I reached down for my Sebbie and for the first time in about a month didn't find it there. My co-workers are used to my odd behavior so they hardly took notice.

I'm sure there are feelings worse than reaching down for an expensive knife and not finding it where it's supposed to be but this feeling is right up there in the list. I then did a pretty fair imitation of Linus when he looses his security blanket and of course began the frantic search.....all pockets...all around the waistband...desk...coat...and finally I went and checked the car. There it was on the passenger seat. (I'd been fiddling about with it while stuck in traffic and set it there once things started moving again.)

So...a happy ending but I'm sure had I been on a blood pressure meter I'd have sent it off the scale.

Hehehe, isn't it amazing how not being able to find your knife will just ruin your whole day until its found

I know the feeling, thats why nowadays my wife doesn't sort things out on the table esp. if I have any blades lying around. I'm known to get out of bed in the middle of the night to rummage through the rest of the apartment just to find a "missing" piece. Fortunately I haven't had a blade go AWOL yet.
Thankfully you have a "Happy Ending".
Wishing the Rest of Our Fellow Knifeknuts many "Happy Endings"
Danelle hope you find your Spydie, don't give up hope just yet.

Actually, the infamous BF Native was never found, after much frantic searching. Ray (maddog2020) has been a constant friend to me here, since my Spyderco days and believe it or not, he sent me his as a gift. I carry it every day now, and am ultra careful with it. It's not exactly the same, mine was truly one-of-a-kind but it is the best I could ever hope for. It was a generous act, and yet not the first he's ever done for me. Several peeps here have done nice things for me, and I'm constantly amazed at the level of friendship that eeks out of these forums. sniff....

Have a great weekend all -

I know how you feel... maybe you should tie the damn thing to your belt loop. Sure, you'll look like a dork with a long-ass lanyard hanging off your side but no knife problems.

I advise that you seriously try this... and then post again, in say.. a week or so. Tell us how they worked out. (your co-workers, not your knives)

Danelle, Ray is just the best, he does things like that all the time. He knows I'm a "Stagaholic" and sent me as a gift a Kershaw Dagger with stag scales right around the time of my last birthday. When I thanked him and asked how he knew it was my birthday he responded, "Oh. it's your Birthday? I just thought you'd give it a good home." What a guy, ya gotta love him.

Thought I lost my Blue KOTM Benchmade 940 couple weeks back. Sick sick sick feeling.
Turned to joy when I found it snuggly clipped in my old blue jeans. Damned I love that knife, and those jeans. (note jeans and knife have began to bond as well)

I still miss my little CS voyager I lost two years ago. Guess you never get over a lost knife. Hopefully my loss was someone else's joy. Take care little Voyager, where ever you are.
 
Man, PANIC TIME! As soon as I read about a lost Sebenza, I went looking ... at mine, in front of the monitor ... where it always sits, watching everything I write.

My Kershaw Boa has been MIA for about 2 weeks now. Lord knows where it's hiding!

I'm just thankful it wasn't my MT Nemesis or Elishewitz MARS or one of the other more costly knives!

It'll turn up soon I hope!
 
Check the front seat of your car / truck in the crotch where the seatbelts come through.

My knives like it there, maybe your do too:^)
