Only knife I lost was a pocket knife I stuck in a wood fence post after gutting a squirrel.
One year later when back in that same area I retrieved it. It sets on a shelf above my work
bench at eye level as a constant reminder to do equipment check before leaving.

I also lost a revolver that fell out of its holster when I stepped over a log in the trail. About a half
mile on I discovered the loss. I backtracked and found it also.

I lost my mind once and only made a partial recovery of that, but it works good enough for retirement.
