I was wondering if any of you have ever found a knife if so what i have found a endura 4 on top of my house must have been the roof people tell me yours
 
I found a cheap switchblade in a parking lot once and a buddy of mine found an old dive knife at the bottom of a river here in FL.
 
Ive found 2. First was when I was about 12, I was trout fishing at Buford Dam in Georgia. Found a Buck fixed blade. Think it was a 119? My dad still has it I think. Then about 15 years ago I was doing a exhaustive inspection of a house my company had just bought, and found a Gerber boot knife under some empty boxes in the basement. Might have been a 5 inch blade, metal handle and leather sheath. gave it away maybe 6 years ago.
 
I found an old timer of some sort at in the couch at a nail salon when I was young and I found a Victorinox in the couch at my doctors office about a year ago. I once lost a Leek in a volley ball pit and found it a year later. Another time I rode around with a melting Camillus wedged between the frame of my motorcycle and the exhaust for a few months. I thought I had lost it, until one day I just happened to see it there.
 
Found this POS backlock at work a few years ago. So much side to side blade play. Says "stainless steel" on the blade. Its pretty heavy but I'm quite sure its just a cheap Chinese knife.

If anyone recognizes it please chime in. I've almost thrown it away a few times but I never could.

Only cool thing is the handle is 1 solid piece of metal. No idea what the inserts are made of. Looks and feels like plastic

You found an endura on your roof!!! Wtf!! I've heard of some great finds but that's insaine. When I was about 8 or 9 I found one of those double pointed fishing spears. I loved that thing and used it to hunt frogs.
 
Growing up as a kid, we used to live near this old shut down factory. Me and a buddy used to always sneak in there and get in the old concrete trucks to play with the fire extinguishers. I found an old fixed blade. When i joined this site, I post a "what is this knife" thread, and it turns out it was a one of a kind custom from a well known maker, happened to be one of his early knives too.

The bad part is, I broke the very tip of it off, trying to throw it into a piece of ply board when I was 10 :(
 
I found a Boker auto in the back seat of my truck a few years ago. I went through a lot of workers so it could've been anyone's. It's a small tanto blade with the tip broken off and a goldish color aluminum handle. I'll probably throw it up for a "lose your knife?" give a way.
Also found a Browning skinning knife on a rough in recently. The tip is rounded and the scales are gone. Will make a fun project knife.
 
While hunting a few years back i found a buck 119x beside a gut pile. I looked at it put it back in its sheath and put it back. figuring the owner might realize and come to retrieve it. Two days later I made a trip back to see if it was still there and it was. I still have it and as it turns out it was the only buck I bought out of the woods that season.
 
I found a Gerber Evo buried on a beach in Oregon in 2007. I though it was the coolest thing ever. :P
 
Found a nice Leatherman in its nylon case a couple years ago. Found a flyreel with line and a fly in 10th grade that started me going on flyfishing.........but that was 42 years ago.
 
found a no name lock back on a hiking trail a few years back

had skeletonized scales and 440X steel

I use it to practice my sharpening on
 
I found a cheap gerber when I was shooting one day, I was gathering brass and found it.

This knife just appeared in my collection. Seriously. I ave no idea where it came from and I don't remember exactly when it showed up, it was maybe 1998-1999? It's a Parker Imai lock back, stag handles, brass bolsters. It's the same size as a Buck 110. Really excellent knife. It was older and weathered good when it showed up. I have no idea how old it is. I really like the thing and I wish more would start popping up.
 
(First Post)

Once while deer hunting, my dad and I was walking down a logging road and I saw something shiny in a puddle. It was a 3 blade Case XX. It was in good shape. I later lost knife myself.
 
I found some gerber serrated folder once in the bushes at our dog park...needless to say i tossed it back in after I found it
 
I found one of those little SAK keychains once(red one with just knife, nailfile, tweezers, and missing the toothpick) when I was little...ended up losing it somewhere myself. Also found some very old and worn looking scaling knife folder out in a field near my house. No idea who made it or anything.

My mom found a S&W folder at her work once. Don't remember the sort, just that it was a liner lock, non-assisted open, black handle and black blade that I think was labelled "Homeland Security", but it could have been "HRT", I forget. Oddly enough, my mom isn't a knife person, but she decided to start carrying that one, go figure.
 
I mowed the lawn for my high school the summer after my junior year to get the required community service hours to graduate, I found an Ontario Pilots survival knife in he schools yard.....I walked into the principals office and said I found this, what do you want me to do with it, and put it on her desk in front of me..... She called the security guard and told him to open the door then walked out to my truck and put it in my drivers seat lol, I liked my principal

Only problem with it was the fact that the guard was broke and handle was loose, near as I can tell, one of the washers was somehow lost.

Me and a teacher think that some of the neighbor kids were playing with it the night before, we decided that If they were gonna leave a knife out like that, then they didn't deserve to have it

It's on the bottom, still debating whether or not to send it to Ontario to see if they can fix it for me

Found a Frost Cutlery from the 80's in a public bath house, big double quill-ion modern stiletto with a leather lanyard, someone attempted to double edge it, pretty creepy knife, play in all directions hehe, but around 8" so good size at least :D
