Rather then actually LOSE my knife, I misplace it and usually find it in a day or so.I used to loose so many pocket knives that I just carry one cheapo. However, now that I am retired I have yet to loose one. So I may go to a better knife OR TWO. Lord knows that I have a bunch to choose from!
Speaking of carrying two knives. After an unfortunate incident when I needed my 110 with its attached "flick it". And couldn't reach into my bunkers right pocket with my left hand. I started carrying one in each pocket.I have a Buck 110 and would never be able to carry it into many places I have gone into. However, with my Benchmade Barrage folder, I can drop it into my pocket and no problems...
I keep my old Boker auto in the overhead sunglasses compartment of my Jeep along with a compact flashlight. It came in handy cutting my way out of the airbags that deployed when I was hit head-on almost five years ago. I couldn't reach my Benchmade AFO in my pocket.I have carried these 2 for about 20 years now. Different jobs require different knives. View attachment 56425
