I really do love all of my knives - too much according to my wife. But of all the knives I've got (probably 20-30), the one I would replace soonest if lost would be my Tenacious. (The thread regarding loss in the snow made me think of this). I've got knives ranging from $20-$400 and I wouldn't want to lose any of them, but the Tenacious is one I would replace w/ another Tenacious rather than trying something new.

What knife would you replace if you lost it, rather than getting an upgrade or trying something new?
 
I would have to replace my morpho and my mini-grip

without those knives im not complete
 
Case Sodbuster and my SAK Alox Farmer, I would never want to be without either of those.
 
I would go with my butter knife - i love my butter :) Actually I have an old Vic SAK, I have had it for 15 years and would be lost without it - its not over the top or expenise but always had a good sharp blade and has saved me many times.
 
My RC-3, Izula, zdp delica, and my Benchmade 530.

I'd be lost without them.
 
Probably my douk-douks... I love the thin profile, the turkish clip, the carbon steel that develops a nice patina with use. It's a blade that I would have a hard time finding a substitute for... if not for the compactness, then for the aesthetic. Almost everything else, I can think of an alternative that I could settle for in the event of loss.
 
I would immediatley get a replacement for my Benchmade 710 and Vic Farmer if they were ever lost.

Funny... My EDC is very similar to that pair lately: A BM31 and a Mini-Grip.
Those are two that I'd replace with likes, if possible.

My problem is that my favorite knife, a BM 43 with T-latch (spring latch is for punks ;) ), is not one that I could easily replace (with my budget in its current state). That knife, however, is the one I'd be most concerned about losing/replacing... stuck between a rock & a hard place, so to speak. Carry my favorite and risk losing it when another is tough to come by, or leave it home and not use it, even though it's my #1 pocket buddy?

I'd also be quick about replacing my Bark River Settler.

My SMF and PT. I have lots of knives but these are my EDC they work well for me. I am always on the lookout for new knives but I have not run into any to replace my lineup.
 
If I lost all my knives, I can't honestly say I'd rush to replace any one of them with an exact replica. I'd probably buy something totally new. Similar (i.e. a traditional slipjoint or maybe a SAK), but different.
 
Kershaw Chive....really useful and cool little knife. Love the AO and it's pretty enough that it doesen't scare people.
 
My Korth Folder. Not only is it a custom, but it was made for a limited run for Julie at Arizona Knives. The feel all the way around is smooth. I would have to replace it with a close model design from Korth as they do not make these anymore.
 
Probably my Keshaw Shallot PE in S110V. What a knife. I have only had it about six weeks, but it is like having a new best friend. I like the heavy blade and the slim profile of the handle. Perfect jeans knife for my work.
