I've seen a lot of "have you lent out your knife and..." or "has anyone ruined your knife..." and titles like that since i joined the forum. Anyways, i always wanted to see the damage people do to knives that have been lent out by you all. I personally do not hand out blades, but i was wondering if anybody snapped any pictures of a blade that got damaged by someone who asked to use your knife.
 
I've never had someone do actual damage to my knife, but I've had someone disrespect my knife before.
The guy used my caly 3 to flip into the lawn, trying to get the blade to stick in the grass and the handle to stick up.

I got even though. :)
 
I was wearing a SMF DGG on day at work and had a dumbass ask to borrow my knife. I asked what are you going to do with it. If the answer is to cut then sure. If not then no. Well after I said that my friend let him use his $5 cheapo and he takes it and uses it to open a locked door by sticking it in the door jam. If I didn't ask and just handed him my blade and he did that with it. I think I would have ripped his effing head off. I would love to borrow his gun and use it to dig a hole in the ground.
 
I use my knife. No one else does. If I can cut something for them, I will, but I'M THE GUY THAT PAID FOR THE PLEASURE OF USING MY $100 (or more) KNIFE!
And no, you can't borrow my girlfriend either! :o
 
Not my knife but my Gransford Bruks Hunters Axe. Lent one to a guy who I THOUGHT knew how to use it.......pictures show that he in fact did not.

Left one. Upper part of blade face.

I tried to fix it as best I could but there was just a bunch of steel chipped out of that blade :(
 
Dang that is nasty!

The worst I had was one guy dragging my Mili edge first across a concrete floor...:(

Good thing to be said for Spyderco S30V though, it stayed sharp enough to cut!
 
When I was young a boss asked to borrow my knife, a cheepie but sharp. She used it to pry the big paper staples out of 25 or so very thick documents. Killed the tip, ever since if they need it cut I will do it.
