Anyone ever lose there multitool?

[american lockpicker]

I lost my Wave and I haven't a clue where I could have lost it. It may have fallen out of its sheath.

[PyroJames]

I've "temporarily misplaced" my multitools dozens of times before but luckily, I've never lost them.  Hope your wave turns up sooner or later, ALP.

[american lockpicker]

Well I've been looking for it and found a 2AAA Minimaglite, stainless parker jotter and 10 bucks. But no WAVE.

[turbov21]

I fear I threw out my first SAK a couple of years back.  Does that count?

[cliosguy]

a swissgrip , but then i found it

[Swiss Man]

I lost my Rescue Tool once while working the road.   When I came back to the post I noticed that the sheath was gone.

Making a copy of my log sheet I went to each and every stop I made that day until I was lucky enough to find it.

The SOG sheath makes a great sheath for the Rescue Tool easy slip on and off but their plastic clips are not reliable.

[Chako]

Never lost anything yet for long.

I lost one of the American Camper MTs on the outdoor 3D range once. We looked high and low for it. Came back the next day with a massive magnet and dragged the area. That did the trick.

Look down the back of the sofa, that's where most of my stuff turns up. In fact, hang on a minute, I've just found a Wave ... could it be yours? 

[J-sews]

I hate losing stuff. So badly in fact, that I'm ultra-paranoid and am constantly patting down my pockets to make sure everything is still there.
Pat-pat step pat step pat-pat step....

I must look like a complete moron walking down the street.

What was your excuse before you got into tools

I've misplaced a few now and then but I usually find them. I had one stolen from me about 15 years ago. I was working in a lumberyard. I had a Supertool that I carried while at work. I put it in my locker and the next day it was gone.

[Styerman]

I haven't lost one yet , touch wood , but I have lost SAK's and other small items .

I've been lucky with my multis and knives. I've temporarily misplaced a few of them, but have always found them.

[Mr. Whippy]

Not a MT, but once, about 95 feet up an ice climb, I let the tool hang by its leash to shake out my hands.  The friggin leash came undone and the tool pitched off down to the bottom.  There were no other options but to finish the climb with one tool    and rappel back down to find the damned thing. 

The only problem was, it was snowing like a b!tch.  My partner and I didn't get back to the base for 45 minutes.  We searched the area for about 90 minutes and then went for beer.  Had to buy a replacement.  $185. 

I left notes at the local gear shops, thinking that I'd never see it again. 

Two months later, someone found it and sent it back. 

[Benner]

Luckily, I haven't lost anything... yet.

[WhichDawg]

I can't find my Squirt P4 I won from here

it's in the house/around "somewhere" but I've been looking, maybe
someone "borrowed it!" 

we lost our Kick once, turned up a few weeks later, someone
borrowed it

[Pacu]

never lost a tool or knife as i'm paranoid too. I find knives all the time....mostly junk. I found a Case stockman in the lake once and a Gerber Gator while doing lakeshore clean up in Explorer Scouts.

Wasn't that the one I was supposed to get and instead I got an s4.

I lost my first SAK ever, a vic motorist.  Must've slipped out of my pocket on the bus, and I can't even replace it because it's discontinued and rare now days.

Now you just need to grow another arm to take advantage of that.

Yes!

[sappyg]

not a MT but i was doing some weed wacking yesterday and ran out of string in the spool and now i can't find the replacement string i bought this spring. i know it's around here somewhere.

Did you also buy a spring this spring when you bought the string?

[sappyg]

if i did i can't find it either.

[Mr. Whippy]

Just pick up a goat.  I heard they have them at Walmart.

[sappyg]

i'm afraid i would loose it.

[Mr. Whippy]

i'm afraid i would loose it.

RTFM. 

1.  Drive a stake in the ground.
2.  Attach chain to goat (with a collar)
3.  Attach other end of chain to the stake.
4.  Come back in 4-6 hours
5.  Move stake to a new area and repeat as necessary.

[sappyg]

tried it once. honestly it had less than a pleasant outcome. plus the stinking goat kept getting the chain wrapped up in the briars and kudzoo. it's no fun trying to untangle a pissed off goat.
i wish i could remember where i put that string i bought in the spring for my thing.

[Smitty44]

Just my USAF Vic Classic,but it has been replaced three fold.
