Ever sell a knife and regret it soooooo bad?

I gifted a Kershaw Wave folder to my best friend, but I wish I hadn't (Kinda). It was a hard working little framelock with zero play and it was light as a feather. However, I know he used it all the time (Until his dad got him a pesky AL Mar Sere) so, I feel very good about that. I may go buy another one very very soon.
 
Maybe a couple. Much more so with guns...sold several when I was broke (4 kids in college at once broke) that I wish I had back and don't yet want to spend the money to replace.
 
Yeah ,did the xm-18 thing ,had 8 customs, then about 3 years ago I got a custom that had a liner lock and gray scale's well I figured Rick was gonna mass produce one's with liner lock's so I dumped them all..................................i could PUKE.

THANK'S CRAZY ROGER
 
I grew up hanging out at the House of Blades in TX. As a kid I remembered seeing a set of Tom Maringer Vorpals bunched in the corner of one of their upstairs cases. It was a shoulder rig, with a a 1B 'neath each shoulder, and a 1C skeletonized tanto at the center of the back, all vertical, in Tom's great kydex and all signed/numbered. BC said a soldier back from Desert Storm brought them in and sold them when his time was up.

I went to work for BC on and off one year in the early 90s, and the Maringers were still there. I put them on layaway at what I know now was a great price. Thet were my prized sharp possession until my finances went Tango Uniform and I sold them (plus some guns and other stuff).

I've kept in touch with Tom over the years, buying coins, etc. He recalls making the set. They danced in the hand, and are the best example of functional art I've ever used. I wake up every morning and kick myself in the tookus for letting those beauties get away.
