Sod's Knife

[Quixoticgeek]

A few days after my aborted NDW trip back in February my beloved daily partner, my Svord Peasant Mini Knife disappeared. After searching everywhere I concluded it must have dropped out of my pocket at some point on the trip.

The other day I ordered a new knife to replace it.

I just found my knife in the pocket of a jumper I haven't warn for a month...

Good ole sods law...

My SAK always lives in the left hand trouser pocket. After a weekend away it was missing, so I ordered a new replacement straight away. The next morning I found my knife by the handbrake in the truck.
Shortly after I found myself solemnly telling my eldest that we now felt that they were mature and sensible enough to have a pen knife of their own for their birthday...!

Definite sods law effect, done the same with a large flathead screwdriver, got several and couldn't find any of them anywhere so i gave in and bought a new one, came home and found one of the missing ones almost as soon as i sat down i seen it poking out from under the sofa, i would have sworn black and blue i looked there several times, well Julia at least now you have a spare for your favourite knife

I have two SAK Soldiers for the same reason. Odd thing is, I hardly ever see them both at the same time...

 

[forrestdweller]

glad you found your knife! (and there is not such as thing as ""too many knives"" so do'nt feel bad about having bought another one....)

 

[Blundstoned Love]

I know that feeling.

I have multiple copies of indispensible things like tape measures and such.

For example I have three folding knives with stanley type blades - I either have three to hand or none.

Its the same no matter how many you buy, you'll only ever know where one of them is.......

I also have a spare Svord Mini Peasant in my garage after losing one. I convinced myself I had dropped it in the leisure centre car park and after going back and searching and asking at reception I ordered a replacement, only for the boss to discover it in the garden 3 days later. If sods law proves true, I will now never lose the original one and the replacement will remain safely on a shelf in the garage for ever (or until I sell it to my daughter for a penny).

Corollary to Sods Law: tools only appear after the need for them is gone.

I have Sod's torch.

My ambition is to use a pencil right to the end.

(Have done so with pens, but they were found ones anyhow. Pretty much all my non specialised writing/drawing stuff is found...Do you realise those bics cost 40p at the post office?)

How awful, ending up with 2 svord knives. I feel for you.:sadwavey:

I lost a favourite EDC knife a while back and replaced it immediately. The original hasn't turned up yet, though. I'd just love to know what happened to it. I'm not sure which is worse, sod's knife, or wondering where the sodding knife went. Still, I suppose its something to look forward to...

Some thing happened to me. My EDC went missing and I have replaced it. But I still have not found the missing one yet. I have lost the knife many times in the past but it normally turns up after a day or too. This time its been missing for two months now. I would love to know what's happened to it. Iv had the knife for about 7 years. It was my favourite SAK and my EDC.
