I like the idea of the sharpfinger, just didn't like the way the grind of it was amd had to reprofile it.
Never lost a knife in the field, but have broken a few...

I did look for it, bout an hours worth of driving. I just hope it didn"t get in someones tire. Over the years i've lost a few knives but i'm more mad at myself for laying it on the bumper. Rookie move. cmcf, i'll gladly pay you for it. It'll save me from having to deal with the auction site. thanks

I feel your pain. Lost an old timer I had owned for over 20 years this summer. It had skinned many a deer. I started putting it on my belt this summer baling hay, after I lost my pocket knife. It came in handy until I used it to cut some net wrap off a roller on baler and left it laying. I drove all over the field looking for it, never turned up

yup lost one of my favorites , luckily I still had the sheath , I ordered another blank , I just need to get around to making another.
I have a good guess it is on an Island on the Wisconsin River
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Man, the way it sounds, we should be tripping over all the blades we've lost. Was talking to a trapping buddy of mine about this and he told me he mounted a magnet rail like used in kitchens in the bed of his truck. He does a lot of tailgate skinning and said he just makes sure if he lays his knife down, he puts it on the magnet. Almost sounds like a plan.

Carl, my son and I watch forged in fire all the time. There's been more than a few conversations on getting setup to do it. If nothing else, it would give us some memory making as much as knife making.

Lost my favorite Case XX trapper in the hole it made in my pocket .. Haven't found another that held an edge like it since . Have had 4 stolen over the years , but none were as good as that Case XX Trapper .
