Lost It
Lost It
It happened...I've never lost a knife before after decades of carrying. But, somehow my Manix 2 Lightweight C101PBN2 is missing in action. I'm bummed, I really loved this knife and carried it often. I liked the CTS XHP. I've searched everywhere I can imagine since I last carried it to no avail. I hope whoever finds it knows what a treat they have.

Re: Lost It
Look on the brightside, now you have a reason to buy another knife! :p
That's never a good feeling. If your luck is anything like mine, you'll buy a new knife and the old one will magically show up.

Re: Lost It
Look between the seatbelt and console in your car, and the seat brackets in the area. I’ve lost a number of knives and found them there.

Re: Lost It
Man, I am sorry for you!!
Told the stories already, so in short:
- Lost my Stretch 1 once when the model was already discontinued. Spent a LOT of time and effort to finally find another totally overpriced one. Did not care to pay the price, it was worth it for me (these days the VG 10 Stretch 1 is the only model I have a backup for)
- Lost my blue Endura once on a mountain hike and searched for it a good part of the night (with a headlamp) and made about seven thousand feet of vertical distance while searching... but it was gone for good...

Re: Lost It
The same thing always happens to me haha. Whenever I lost something and replaced it with a new one. The lost one always shows up like nothing happened LOL.
Re: Lost It
That's why I never buy an exact replacement, but something new. :Droxiescarf wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 5:15 amThe same thing always happens to me haha. Whenever I lost something and replaced it with a new one. The lost one always shows up like nothing happened LOL.

Re: Lost It
Sorry for your loss!
Might think about getting the upcoming Manix2 Lightweight in Rex45 or the brand new steel CPM SPY27 which is i believe similar to VG10
