Lost my sgian

Sine they've begun offering it on laptop computers, maybe we have a new product line in highland accessories that feature the Lo-Jack locating system for middle aged kilties who "swear I just put it down over here a minnit ago...".

Best

Sorry for your loss. Nothing more disheartening or frustrating than not being able to find something so dear to you.

Maybe adding a little levity to the situation will lift your spirits a bit, maybe not, but would the missing item now be better described as a s'gone dhub?

As we are both in Kentucky, I'll allow as some might consider that humorous. I have given up on finding my treasure. If anyone has a suitable substitute for sale, please let me know. I may pursue Tim Britton about a commission, or finally splurge on one of Rab's

In my experience, buying a replacement is a near-sure guarantee of the original item surfacing. . . but only if the replacement is hard to get, expensive, not returnable, etc.

I am sorry to hear that your treasured knife has not turned up during multiple searches. It is probably on a beach somewhere, enjoying the company of the antique gold necklace that went missing from my possession back in 1978. . .

My wife has a tendency to sort things by category. If she doesn't immediately see a need for something, it goes in the trash, if she suspects it has some value it's yard sale or goodwill depending on her mood. But she assures me that she did not touch the sgian.

I agree with the "buy a new one" method. That always makes the old one turn up.

Have you looked on top of all the dressers and under the bed? If you are like me, and evidently several others on this list, you set it down out of its ordinary resting place when you took it off out of getting distracted during the process. It will most certainly turn up a week after you stop looking for it. I certainly hope that you find your sgain.

Had the very same problem not too long ago, looked all over the house. To make a very long story short, I found the darn thing.....in my sock drawer.

I'm on the hunt, hope it doesn't take a couple of yeras again.

Good Luck!!

Hope she turns up.

I'll say this again in hope that it might help.
