We have all lost a knife or two, or sold one that we shouldnt have. If you could get just one of those back what would it be? Mine would be my Gerber BMF combo.
 
Back in the 70's I had a barrel knife that got lost when I was helping a buddy move. I still miss it and they are no longer made.

Looked about like this:

BM Model (I believe) 42 Balisong .. bought way-back-when, lost forever. (since replaced several times over).
 
I still have an early BMF w/o serrated spine, but not the compass.
I really miss the early 70's AG Russell Sting I had w/the black chrome finish that was stolen about 20 years back. (still have the one with wood scales, though)
 
i've just lost 1 knife
my benchmite 2
got it from my parents so it's kinda sentimental and they paid €50.5(74.34$) for it :o
 
i found a camillus folder, a cuda something or other, it was a pre production #91 i think of 500 or 1000, in... i believe it was D2. first really good folder i had. it went swimming in lake eufaula one day and i never saw it again. looked a lot like this

i was sick for a week until payday, and i went to the nearest gun shack and bought a first production run benchmade 940, which is sitting in my left pocket right now.
 
Someone was selling a Benchmade Torrent 890 Plain for 90 bucks on a forum Im a memer of. I e-mailed the guy to tell him I would paypal him on Friday and by Thursday the guy changed his mind and said nevermind, he was going to keep it after all! Sheeesh! Almost had an awesome knife for a good price!
 
When I was selling knives at gun shows, I sold a Marbles Ideal with a yellow composite handle, marked "Woods and Water". I've never seen another one, and I really regret selling it.

I also sold a couple of Bark River Foragers (no longer made) that were very nice, and I wish I had 'em back.
