I have carried this same knife everyday for years. The only time I haven't carried it was when I had to fly, going on a cruise, or jury duty. And now I can't find that damn thing anywhere. I'll replace it, but man I hate losing something I have had for so long. It was a Kershaw Ken Onion Leek flipper. Great knife, kept an edge like a beast. You guys ever lose something like that, and even though it was replaceable it just wasn't the same?

I know what you mean, unfortunately I go through knives like crazy. I always buy the cheap $20 ones and they either fall apart on me or I lose them. I have one good knife that I keep in my truck, that one I will never lose. I hope.

I lost a 1495 Irish penny that I've used in every golf tournament I've ever played in. Lost it a few months ago- no idea where.

I lose microfiber cloths a day after I buy them. It is incredibly annoying.
But they are all just objects. Why exactly would you need a knife anyway out of curiosity?

I have a Buck 110 Classic. I have lost it before for a couple days. I picked it up because I saw it and I remembered my dad had the same one when I was a kid. Amazing how a knife can mean do much to you.

That sucks, I have the same knife and I love that damn thing. Lost the last Kershaw that I had before the Leek. I had carried for years. I set it down, turned around to do something else and it vanished...funny

it's just a guy thing? my dad always had a decent blade, a full lighter, and a functional pen, on him at all times. just part of what I learned about being a dude.

I grew up, for the most part, in the very rural part of Southern Ohio so I have carried a knife since I was about 12 years old. It is just a part of how I grew up. Like java said, there are certain things you always make sure you have. For me, one of those things is a good pocket knife.

I carry m Gerber drop-point everyday.

Just started a couple of years ago and now it's the first thing I grab when I get dressed. I can't imagine not having it since I use several times a day

Yeah. I have my knife, a cigar punch on my key ring, and lighter with me at all times. I used to carry a good pen but I have my phone with me now.

I am trying to find an everyday hat that looks good on me, to complete the 'ensemble'.
