Wanted Sioux valve seat grinder

I am looking for a Sioux valve seat grinder loaned to a club member but not returned. I understand the Sioux grinder, along with several other valve specialty tools, were in some way passed on to other club members. The Sioux was a bit of a treasure, quite old and in pristine condition.
I will not assume anything was sold, traded or gifted because I do not have that information. I don't know what went to whom. I am not out to pass judgement or condemn members. I am asking for some help on this issue. To anyone who is willing to return any of the tools to me, your kindness will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your integrity.

Tom, you gave it to someone. You did not loan it. No one asked you for it. You dropped it off at someone’s door with no stipulations. Then you wonder where this valve grinder is 12 years later. No one even uses a valve grinder for old Ford flathead engines.

Its long gone. Move on Tom.

I did not give it away. It was loaned.
I would never have given it away.
My memory is not flawed on this subject.
