>1Password creates your data file using the password you provided when you first launched the application. This password is not kept anywhere and it is never logged. Furthermore, there is no “back door” mechanism to recover your data or password. This approach is very important in order to be able to say that 1Password keeps your data safe and secure. However, because of it, once your password is forgotten, there is nothing we can do to help you recover it.

I have my master password written on a piece of paper that is stored in a safe location, mostly so my wife can access my information if anything ever happened to me, but it also works as a backup if I ever forget my master password for some reason.
