Lost an old friend

No, not a buddy, but my Gerber Micro-light LST knife.

It was a little pocket, back locking, key chain knife, that I used all of the time.

Purchased it some 20? years ago, when it first came out.

It must have fallen off my key chain; and Gerber discontinued it last year.

Pissed me off. It's just a knife, but cr*p. Oh well.

What have you lost that got you..............shaking your head?

I lost a car from moving one time. I got so busy I forgot I left it. I still wonder where it is and what happened to it.

Send me a PM, and I'll put you in contact with my brother. He MIGHT have one, either that or he'll make you one. He's a custom knife maker.

This is one of his first knives.

I did order one last night,
but I'll see what happens. Could be new old stock, which is OK, or discontinued.
Probably/most likely made in $#^$%&^.
