So I pray pretty much daily for this to return. Mind you, I don't pray at all.

God is good, and despite what we've seen, there ARE good, honest people left in this world.

I'm always amazed at the number of people who "don't pray at all"....until the s**t hits the fan.

Anyway....now that you're a "born again" be careful when you wipe.
 
I didnt know where I had misplaced my sebbie last spring,I just wrote it off as lost for many weeks. but I went back to a farm for more contract work and the owner handed me my small sebenza engraved with my last name. I was very happy and gave him a Spyderco.

NO SH!T!!!!!! LOL

Hold it in your hand, open and close it, shave arm hair, whatever. Just DON'T EVER LAY IT DOWN AGAIN!!!!

I carry a Mayonized Sebbie AND a Busse on my belt EDC. At ~ $700 worth of steel on my belt I'm very carefull when I 'do my duty'. I guess you will be too now. LOL

Seriously, glad you got that bad boy back. Hope it put the fear of God in you.

I'm glad all's well! I remember how down you sounded at first and I can somewhat sympathize since there was a day I thought I'd lost my small "Stars and Stripes" sebbie, however, inside, I thought to myself, even though I didn't post at all, that your's would be turned in and you'd get it back.....glad to be right for once!!:thumbup:
 
Great news.

I really hope you find out who was honest enough to turn it in and get a chance to reward them in some way. There are so few people like that and they must be encouraged and their positive action reinforced.
 
i can't believe you lost that beautiful sebenza i sold you :confused:
well actually i know what it's like because i lost my stars and stripes sebbie about a month ago and i was freaking out until my girlfriend told me her friend found it inbetween cushions at her house-when my girlfriend told her friend how upset i was and how much it cost me i don't think she wanted to give it back ;)
glad you got your knife back :thumbup:
 
Out of curiosity, where do you work where the security would get their panties in such a bind over a pocket knife (government job perhaps)?

Glad you got it back. Nothin sucks like losing a valued knife.
 
Average Sheepson (singular for Sheeple):
"Hmmm... somebody dropped this gigantic pocketknife, guess I'll turn it in."

Knife Guy:
Finds Knife "......................a......SEBENZA?!?!???........Should I keep it??"


Congrats, I'm Glad you got it back!
I wonder if you'd have gotten it back if everyone was knife-familiar and recognized it as a super expensive piece of equipment instead of a "pocket knife."
 
Thank you thank you guys! You guys are the best for understanding the ups and downs of a knife knut.

borinquen:

I was waiting for you to show up!! When I posted the thread I thought "borinquen is going to kill me when he sees this thread" LOL! To top it off, you sold it to me at such a deal I couldn't believe I screwed that one up. But she's back, and life is good again. :)

planterz:

I work at the central Morgan Stanley location in NYC (Times Square). So....security is a bit paranoid to say the least. Most of my co-workers are a bit freaked that I carry a "military grade" (I'm not kidding, someone said this to me yesterday) pocket-knife.

Heh, maybe I should bring in my vaquero grande for kicks! MUHUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

I'm a security manager for what was, the largest telecommunications company in the world. Very sheeple intense here. I had to downgrade my EDC to a TOPS Wolf Pup, as I can only use a fixed blade for EDC and my 3" blade was attracting to much attention. I can't count the times I've had to intervene between management and a corporate ninja on some knife related issue. One time some a$$ whipped out a POS stiletto to cut off a loose thread on his suit, while on the elevator with a bunch of women. One of which was so frightened, she needed medical attention. If I didn't intervene in that one, he would'a been history.
4 R very glad for you. If I'd lost a knife like that, I would'a :barf:
 
What I find so funny about sheeple reactions is that I bought the wood inlay sebbie so as not to FRIGHTEN (or is it fwighten?) the sheeple. After this incident, I realized that even if I brought in a 1" knife covered in rubies and diamonds they'd still faint.

And yes, I was depressed for DAYS when it didn't turn up. I'd look at the box it came in, look at the birth certificate.

And yes I teared up when I got her back.
 
PEople are just dumb. Sheeple says, "Does anyone have a knife?" and you offer yours, then they faint. :confused: One of the first knives I ever made is my keychain EDC. It is 3 1/16" long OVERALL with a 1 15/16" blade. Fileworked spine, 1.25" maroon linen Micarta handle that is 1/2" wide at its widest and brass pin and tube. I don't even thing Fred Perrin could do much damage with this thing! Anyway, we were at a coffee shop one day and a friend noticed my keychain and said "What's that?" "A little tiny knife," I said. Her eyes bug out and she goes "What do you do with that, kill people?" I said, "No, I carry a much bigger knife when I want to murder people." That kind of ended the conversation, but my God, how stupid are people?
 
Jebus! You must live in a very strange place... I'm not really surprised people react badly to a Sebenza, but the keychain knife you describe sounds like the very model of a gentleman's EDC. Maybe this particular girl was just retarded? Is hers a common reaction? :eek:
 
Chiro75, I agree wholeheartedly.
Sheeple are not only a little amusing, quite annoying, and just plain idiotic; they are also one of the direct causes of our rights being slowly, "ammended."
I personally think its nothing less than pathetic, naive, and disgusting.
OOOOHHHH, THE IGNORANCE.
Kudos on yer response to the friend who saw yer "Conan The Barbarian" keychain knife!
A lot of people would actually thing you were serious about murdering people



... Hmmmmm ... Maybe I'm a little bitter ...
