My personal worst was an Opinel (a french knife kinda like the CS Twistmasters but, IMHO, cooler.) I took it to the YMCA daycamp where I worked last summer for daily chores (I was the only counselor who took "woodcraft" to the next level. Picture Marine Force Recon throwing mudballs at canoes from cover) Anyway, while attempting to cut a kid's God's Eye out of a tree that overhung the lake, I managed to plop it into about 10 feet of water. All you Illinoisans might have heard about the Leptospirosis outbreak in Lake Springfield; I'd have been fired if I'd gone in after it, though I still thought about it.
My little sister once recieved a small SAK from my dad as a gift on a camping trip. She took it with her to the outhouse in the dark for some reason (stubborn zipper?) and managed to drop it into the deep tank of sewage below. Again, we thought it better to let it go!
