Not for me, not "bangles and bobbles" guy. I stick to more traditional blades

[Arsey]

Here Sharkey Sharkey....c'mon boy!!!

**********, the description makes this sound like a vicious weapon underwater.


...freezes all tissues and organs surrounding the point of injection on land or at sea

[Alpine_Sapper]

What did you think of the watermelon video?

[tennecedar]

For that kind of money I'll stick to my bang stick.

[Alpine_Sapper]

Yeah, I think I'd rather have the 12ga. than some compressed gas too. :)

[crashdive123]

If you're close enough to the shark to use the knife, you are close enough to the shark to be lunch.

[tennecedar]

I was thinking land animals....

[crashdive123]

They'd be close enough to eat you too.

[tennecedar]

True Very True

I got mine from a cousin that moved back from Florida. It does a super job with those short shells (about 1" long) come fall when we slaughter hogs.

I was talking about the knife in both of my posts, not bang sticks. At least with the bang stick there is a little distance.

[tennecedar]

oops

The knife is way too 007 for me.

Thats kinda cool, but imo about as useful as a doorknob on a buffalo...

rofl

That was all of that thread I needed to read. Thanks Rick.

that exactly what it was designed to be a divers self defense weapon against sharks and other marine life. With the capability to be utilized on land also. The problem with this is while it is legal the projectile component might render this tool/weapon illegal in many jurisdictions. Take for instance if pepper spray or tasers are illegal in your area than you can make a safe bet that using this item in a self defense situation will win you a new set of bracelets and jump suit.

[Rick]

And flip flops. Don't forget the cool set of flip flops.

[Chris Kavanaugh]

Anyone using the term 'surgical steel' is likely full of gas already.

[talon]

i'd actually like to have one of these to carry.. i'll admit it's a bit james bondish, but i'd still like it.

[Sarge47]

I have 3 requirements for any knife I might buy:

1.) A RH rating of 56-58.
2.) A full tang.
3.) A price tag of not more than $120.

This knife has all but 3 of those features. Also I require a brand name & a nice look & feel to the blade which is, IMO, lacking in this one. Add to that the fact that I don't SCUBA dive...! However, for our richer members there's the "Bear Grylls" knife....:innocent::cool2:

I sense a hint of sarcasm here .........:innocent:

[Ole WV Coot]

Think I will pass on that thing. I have enough gas now, and for something to use it's about as useful as tits on a pound of bacon, IMHO. There I abbreviated !!!!!

[Rick]

Coot, you covered in one post the things dearest to my heart, bodily functions (they get more important the older I get), body parts (some are much better than others, of course), bacon (that speaks for itself) and texting. G1, BWDIK?

[crashdive123]

I suppose you could use the gas to put out small fires. Other than that, I'd have to pass.

:lol:

Pass gas? How could you!

[tennecedar]

With a grin, like the rest of us

[trax]

I watched that video and thought "but I don't hate watermelons that badly"

[Nativedude]

. . .amongst a sea of gimmicks!

I find that a lot of people (I take on primitive living and wilderness survival trips) get a false sense of security when they have gadgets (like this knife) or a backpack full of gear (their "safety net") that usually is unnecessary. That leaves people with their guard let down, which in turn, can set them up for possible trouble.

[vthompson]

That knife is a little out of my price range. I will stick with my Becker Knives. I am kind of fond of a "real knife".

Yeah. I've been drooling over the scrapyard knives lately.

[mountain mama]

If you're close enough to the shark to use the knife, you are close enough to the shark to be lunch.Or for him to be lunch....mmmmmm shark steak *drooling* However, I think my regular dive knife would do the job just as effectively if I were to encounter a shark unfortunate enough to encounter ME.

The problem with this is while it is legal the projectile component might render this tool/weapon illegal in many jurisdictions. Take for instance if pepper spray or tasers are illegal in your area than you can make a safe bet that using this item in a self defense situation will win you a new set of bracelets and jump suit.I have found that there are ways around every rule (at least those I feel should be circumvented). Binaca=blinding spray, yet completely legal. Besides, I have yet to run into the underwater police brigade.
All in all, I have to agree with Ole WV Coot in the aspect that this thing appears to be as worthless as tits on a boar hog (just like my husband's ex-wife).

[Rick]

(just like my husband's ex-wife)

What did she say?

as worthless as tits on a boar hog

How about useless as a screen door on a submarine?

what else ya got to describe a worthless gadget?

yikes, pepper spray inside of a cut?? come on man,put a fire starter in there

[Goloth]

wowzer, frikkin' crazy knife there bro, me myself, I've made some new decisions on knives. Not so big this time, lol. jk, I still love the big knives, and always a fan o' swords. HOWEVER, this is a completely scary good deal for your dollar at the moment I'd say... hold on lemme generate a link... okay! found it...

:drool: :drool:http://www.trueswords.com/military-combat-knife-p-3143.html :drool: :drool:

Check it out, Ka-bar knife for 20 bucks. Well, not Ka-bar brand but in essence I would say it's the exact same knife for 20 bucks... ka-bar just makes too much interest on their knives.

As for that other knife, if I were bear hunting in a tree-stand, an adrenaline junkie, and had suicidal tendencies, I'd hop on down stab the thing in the head and see if the spray feature would piss it off or kill it... lol :D
