In Response To: Off Topic: standard equipment or not? (Acors)

I use towlines (just the other day I towed three people in 25 knot winds -- that was brutal), so I need to have one to cut someone out if they get tangled.

But.... Mine dropped to the bottom of the sea on Monday. It came out of its sheath while I was showing a cowboy reentry. Later, I saw something in the water, but didn't realize it was my knife. Of course, when we all started looking for it, we couldn't find it. It's now on a swimming beach, and I'm concerned some kid could step on it and cut a foot. Yikes! Going to post a sign today and look a bit more.
