This is about the strangest thing I've seen by the side of the road. Driving back from my sister's house yesterday, saw this sign. At first, when I saw "Reward" I figured it was for a lost pet. I was mistaken. No brand, no model, no "last seen at" info. Just this vague description and a phone number.

Looks normal enough to me. Must be a knife knut. Go back and sign the owner up for BF membership:D
 
Maybe someone is fishing...wonder how many grey handled/black bladed knives he will get to buy cheap?....lol
 
He or she really wants that knife back. I can sympathsize.

He or she doesn't seem to want it back enough to provide enough information to make it even remotely possible, though. Was it lost or stolen? Where was it lost/stolen? When? What brand? Model? :confused:

Gray metal handle/black blade doesn't really narrow it down much. ;)
 
Being most people wouldn't know a brand name knife, from a generic one made in China, maybe the owner figured that was good enough.

I bet that is exactly right.

Years ago ( many years ) I worked doing paint & body , small dealership so we took turns answering the phones and also assisting at the parts counter.
Customer came in and needed a water pump.

Customer: I need a water pump.
Me: OK , what kind of car ?

Customer: Pontiac.
Me: ok :rolleyes: , what model ?

Customer: Blue Pontiac.
Me : Do you know the model ,year and engine ?

Customer: No , its a blue 2 door pontiac , black interior.
Me: I need the model , year and engine size.

Customer: Dunno , its blue. I don't know how to open the thing to see the engine. Bought it 3 years ago , havent been able to open it since.

Me: be right back.... go around the corner and proceed to laugh and kick stuff.

Me: Ok , I checked , we are all out of water pumps for Blue Pontiacs , I do have red and black in stock but I don't think they interchange , . Perhaps try the auto parts store down the street , they stock parts for all colors...err cars.

Customer: great , thanks !

:D
