Bit of an aside.... I had just gotten a new pickup and stopped for gas and coffee. I got a large coffee since I was going to sip on it driving.... I get the coffee and set it on my dash surface. Climb in and the coffee completely spills on my brand new dash with all the electronics. I was pissed and went in to get another.... set it down also and the same damn thing happened.... I gave up. Took two rolls of paper towels to clean up the loose liquid. Lesson... always get the lid if you are driving with drinks.Haha, the bumper thing or top of the truck/car is so true. Never lost a knife that way but I have a couple pairs of sunglasses that stung a little. Many times I drive away and see my coffee cup or water bottle go off one side or the other of my rig. One of my Swells is so dented up it won't stand up anymore.
I have more than a couple times driven off with drinks sitting outside (truck tool box) and they inevitably fall off and empty. The lids help, but are not full proof.
As to the thread topic, I now will not buy a knife I know I won't carry or use. Just a waste of money as I am no collector.
