Found this while hunting.

You certainly struck a chord with a lot of people, including me. I have lost items of sentimental value myself. A very dear friend lost a 1960's Ruana knife (in Eastern Montana!) and mourned it for nearly 40 years. I had the fortune to be able to replace that knife for him (he will never know what I had to give!), but you should have seen his face. The gift to me was as great as to him.

You Sir, are one of a kind! GOD Bless you and all of Your's!! :thumbup:


Best.

For sure mineral oil, but you did a damn good job cleaning it up. Looks great!

LOL Anthony, you're probably right. I'm wrong more often than I would like to admit, so says my wife. I was just expressing a different point of view, one that I take when going outdoors. Things get lost a lot, and because of that I carry things that I don't mind loosing. Case makes fine knives and I wouldn't like to loose one, but wouldn't cry its loss, either.

Maybe keep better track of your gear and/or use less gear. I have yet to lose anything in the woods. The gear I buy for the outdoors I expect to still have in 30+ years.

Anthony's 10 dot is a reeeeeeeeal nice knife...wow thats a nice knife!.
I think whoever lost that knife has still a personal attachment to it, its not your everyday knife, its a well chosen knife for sure, and a knife is a very personal choice of tool/ collection piece, if I lost a knife that I was carrying, it means its one of my edc's and I am very attached to it....and would regret the loss greatly.
I can loose gear, and I would get over it-although I am pretty careful with my gear, but knives are more than gear, they are my passion, everytime I open my knife I eye it over, thumb it, and enjoy hearing that snap before placing it back in my front pocket, I hope this isnt sounding silly here, but to me, there is a lot of things going on when I use that knife, a lot. And so there is a lot to lose with that knife.
