Went to both Sportsman’s Warehouse and Cabelas. Neither had a leek.
Almost positive my LGS does not carry Kershaw. I’ll take a peek at what they have but I like how thing the leek is.

Good prices, quick shipping. I've bought many from him over the years. For carry knives I just get the blems, they're cheaper and only have some cosmetic issues, most of which I've never found.

I had my first Spyderco stolen out of my car a couple months ago. Sucks.

I have learned to just order a replacement that you really like, it will turn up fast.

Did this last year when I misplaced my Spyderco Military....bought z different Spyderco I had my eyes on for a couple years.

The Military showed up a week after the new one arrived.

Win...Win

Several years back bought a new Chris Reeve Sebenza, $350 or so. Carried it like 2 days and lost it. DID find it by backtracking my day. I'd stooped to pet the dog on a hill......found it in the grass.

Yet I carried an El Cheapo, made in China, Faux Buck folder for my entire 23 years with the Hwy Patrol and never misplaced it for even a minute, much less lost it.

The boy found it in his bed!!
Mama not too happy. I took a nap with him last week and I guess it must have gotten snagged.

Is it still loose? If so, you should tighten the clip up so you don't lose it again.

Email sent. Thank you very much.

I carry a small Gerber knife(evo jr), AAA streamlight protac, and zebra f-701 pen. I have several of each so if i loose one i have a spare.

In 15 years I've only permanently misplaced one knife, broke 2 pens, and wore another knife out.

I had an inexpensive Case pocket knife, I think I paid somewhere in the neighborhood of twenty bucks for it, maybe fifteen years ato.

It was in my pocket every day. Used it to open packages, etc. One day, maybe a year ago, it was not anywhere.

I was certain that it fell when I was emptying my pockets, so I looked everywhere in the bedroom, as that is where it just had to be. No joy. The knife had just ionized.

I was in my delivery truck today, put something in the cup holder, realized that there was something else there. The Case pocket knife that I had lost in the bedroom a year ago. Very strange.

Ugh. I've managed to misplace both my knife and my flashlight this past week. Grrrr. I'm sure they're hanging around together, yukking it up with one another and watching me scour the house looking for them. Couple of jerks, they are....
