I think it happens when I pick up some things with it equipped. But not always.

It's happened twice.

    You sure that it didnt just vanished because its durability sank to 0?

    ^ That. Knifes have a durability, they'll break after you use the durability up.

    I'm sure it's not because of durability, I lost it a few minutes after I made it. It was not in my inventory

    But don't you keep knifes with zero durability? At least it was so before the patch. Did they change that?

    Knives are weird.

    The base knife disappears when its durability hits zero. But if you save and reload, sometimes (but not always) it mysteriously reappears (still with zero durability).

    The upgraded knives tend to stay around instead.

    (Or at least this is what happened in stable pre-update. I haven't checked if the update changed things.)

    I've lost my new knives a few times, inexplicably. They also glitch out now and disappear even though my hand seems to be clinched around one. New patch, New save, 4 hours in.

    I always feel icky using the knife because it's one of the few consumable titanium items in the game. Since as far as I know nothing respawns and the map is limited, when a knife is used up you've effectively removed titanium from your world forever. Might not seem like a big deal until you realize that the maximum size you can build your base without cheating has shrunk by just a tiny amount. So if this is an actual glitch I'd want it addressed ASAP, just for the sake of my own OCD.

    (or implement respawning rules for materials in the world -- i.e. if there's less than say 20-30% of titanium left in the entire world, it'll start to slowly repopulate)

    Actually, titanium respawns :) In the form of metal salvage.

    I've heard that rabbit rays can steal your knives. Never seen it happen, though.

    Ok then knives seem to behave differently because I used my zero durability knives to craft my hardened knife or heated knife with them. At least I used to do so before the patch. Still havn't found the time to play the new patch yet, so I can't say if it still works that way for me or not.
