Re: Ever lost a tool, then FOUND IT a long time later...

Back in '94 I bought a bright yellow handled SPYDERCO CATCHERMAN folding fillet knife thinking I'd never lose that sucker because it stood out like a sore thumb. Six months later I'm working on my 74 C10 installing new hose's and cutting the heater hoses to fit.
Well nature calls so I go inside to take care of business. come back out and I can't find my knife!!!! Looked all over the place for that thing for almost 2 months, finally relented and bought a replacement one. walked in the house and set it on the bookcase...RIGHT NEXT TO MY ORIGINAL ONE!!!! So now I have 2(two) bright yellow handled knives and yeah I do carry them both with me at all times.
