I can’t say that I have ever lost a knife for an extended period of time. I had a small Case canoe that slipped out of my pocket while driving and was found a day or two later under my car seat when I realized it was missing. I have misplaced a few and had the turn up right where I had left them in a fishing tackle box. I wasn’t really thinking it was missing though, just didn’t remember where I would have left it.

I lost my Benchmade Stimulus in my recliner at home for several months. It is no longer made, so that really hurt.
Once it was back in my possession, I sent it to Benchmade to be sharpened and I also had thm engrave the blade with “Reward if Found” and my phone number, just in case it’s out in the wild the next time it’s lost.

Buck 503 folder. Disappeared into the bowels of a recliner for more than 2 years. My grown up, bought with my own money, paid more than $5.00, kept for almost 10 years before losting it knife. Very sad while it was gone. Searched that chair several times with no success. One day there was a small thunk as it fell out. O happy day, but I had already replaced it and gotten used to the everyday feel of the new one.
