Ouch! Lost my old school FRN Serrated Delica today

#1

Post by Dr. Snubnose »

In a public laundry mat washer.....I will check on it tomorrow but I got a gut feeling...it's lost forever (I'm such an optimist :rolleyes: ) Good news is I just purchased a H1 Serrated Dragonfly to replace it.....Funny thing is I just mentioned in a thread by Spydergirl the other day,(with a pic of it) that I was going to have that Delica surgically removed from my hand...well guess what... laundry detergent works just as well....Doc :D

You should have went back right away.

Also call the manager. If they lock up they look in all the washer and crap to make sure nothing/one is in them


Good luck man.

Look down very carefully under the seat of your car near the seat belt. I have lost and found a number of knives there. A car detailer found one I thought gone forever. Also, look inside your recliner very carefully.

My very first nice knife was a BM Elishwitz tanto (910?) and I took my dad's 1975 Buick Le Sabre convertible out for a drive. Dad took it to be detailed the next day and the car detailed was not as kindhearted as yours. I am over it now but at the time a $100+ knife was a crushing loss. I will add I never carried another tanto, but have flipped a few EKI CQC7s.

Gosh, I am sorry to hear that Doc. :( I hope it turns up soon. A Gen 1 too... Argh, that bites.

Guys, maybe we should take a fund for Doc for a new washer so he doesn't have to use a laundromat?? :D :p :D

Sorry, man. I've misplaced knives, but all have been found, sooner or later. Once I spotted my Millie in the bottom of a trash sack that I was about to take out. :eek:
