I dropped my knife cutting up chicken and my dog picked it up and now he's chasing me!

My dog Spikey took my Spyderco away and threatened the other dogs with it!

About a decade ago I was traveling home from China through Hong Kong airport. I had a handful of throwing knives, axes, folders, and nunchucks (maybe 2 handfuls) in my big bag I was going to check in. Already having gone through customs going over a border from Fu Zhou to Shenzhen, with no issues, I thought I was going to be fine. Two of the security opened my bag, and a couple of minutes later there were about 10 of them. Everything was fine, except for 2 of the folders that were spring assisted that were illegal in Hong Kong. They said I could do 6months in jail for each one, so a year. After calling the DOJ, they wrote out a report for the confiscation of the 2 spring assisted folders and let me check the bag with all the other goodies. I’ve been more aware of the laws of places I visit since!
 
We've been married 33 years. Can't recall a single incident when either my wife or I destroyed or threw away something belonging to the other. Nearly twenty years ago, she did throw out some roses I brought home as an act of contrition. Wasn't a total waste though. My then pre-teen son gingerly picked out the best surviving roses and took them down the street to a girl he was sweet on.

The worst she has done was take a SAK as her own years ago. It has since been ditched from her purse at an airport. A couple of Christmases ago she took a Case scout I bought at a gun show and put it in my Christmas stocking a couple of weeks later. She doesn't like spending on unnecessary "stuff".

Not me, but a friend of mine had a pocket knife on him and never gave it a thought as he get in the security line at the airport. His oh shit moment was as he was empting his pockets to walk through the scanner. Realizing he was going to lose his knife, he threw it in the tray along with his wallet and change and walked through the scanner only to find the tray, and knife waiting for him on the other side. He quickly pocketed it and walked towards his gate expecting TSA to taze him at any moment.

The tazing never came and he flew cross country with a knife.
 
Ha! She has no idea...

Hey man I agree, and just about everyone else at the office said the same thing you are. But I roll with the punches pretty well and when we look back on it..it’s quite funny. Let’s please stay on topic as this thread was meant to persude people share some of their either unfortunate or embarrassing stories!

I don't think its funny at all. Your "wife" throws five of your knives off your property, and steals one. She commits larceny on you, and since your married now it becomes a family offense. You think that's funny? It's total disrespect. I'll bet you $10 bucks that if you did that to any of HER favorite things YOU would be arrested, and put in jail. Good luck with that wife of yours.....you're gonna need it.

Pre 9/11, picked up this Blackjack Maumba in Vegas at the souvenir shop next to the La Concha. We were in Vegas renewing our marriage bonds.
Late for the plane, there it was in my shirt pocket. As I fumbled out an excuse of wedding vows and the knife etc the security guard made a rude comment of marriage and me needing a knife.
Before my wife or I could respond, his supervisor stepped in and said " what my colleague meant to say was that you will need a knife to protect such a pretty bride, put it in your bag and have a nice flight"
I will never forget him, that trip, or the knife. And no, I haven't forgotten the wife either.

Do tell...please don’t say “new wife”

Purses, shoes, jewelry, feminine beauty products perform nicely in the woods.
Not saying "new wife," just" new rules."
We've had our fights, as most married couples do. (If NOT married, get a different apt or partner).
We have settled on an equal monthly personal allotment which we can each spend as we want to...on anything.
I unwrapped a new Manix 2 last week to show her, and she said: "nice knife!"
It works...for us.
But I would say to the OP...you'd better come up with some kind of equitable solution, or there will be a future problem. Some one's gonna blow.

My girlfriend is into expensive vintage and scandanavian glassware and ceramics, so she would be better off not trowing my knives out lmao.
 
The worst thing that happened to me was planting my Benchmade barrage in a plant at the Rockefeller center in New York o_O it was still there so not much of a story here
 
Almost lost my mind going through security on a flight to Europe. The backpack has a lot of compartments, and I did not know my Sebenza was in one. She gave it back to me. I won't repeat that error.

Well this may be a bit if a true horror story , at least a minor one.

One night when I was a teenager my mom's alcoholic husband was at a friend's house down the street drinking when he got all bent out of shape about something that was said to him.
Well he comes home and grabs a big serrated Carver from the kitchen drawer and my mom screaming at him to stop and think about what he's doing grabs the knife by the blade to stop him from leaving the house with it and doing something he would regret.
Luckily it wasn't too sharp or it could've been much worse ,my moms hand got cut deep enough to probably need multiple stitches but she didn't want any questions to come up in a hospital visit so she just bandaged her hand up with a piece of an old sheet and babied it for a while.
I was standing there in the dining room with my great grandfathers axe in my hands because I awoke to screaming and really didn't know what was going on, but I was just a kid and I don't know what I was or thought I was going to do.

I'm just thankful my mom didn't end up getting accidentally stabbed during this, because I really think I may have lost it and chased him down then started hacking. I'm not a violent person, but when something happens to your mom things can change.

Phew I’m glad this didn’t turn out really bad for you my friend! I believe everyone here would agree with you on letting lose on the fu#%er.

Man..6 months per blade is just silly..I never understood why knife laws were so strict in certain areas of the world.
