Things that deserve the stink-eye:

Available at WalKILLmart.
What the crap would anyone need this for?
It was brought to my attention that apparently I did not invent the hornet sword.

What? Genghis Khan had a hornet problem too?!

Whoa.

Uh, not exactly a Swiss Army Knife is it? This thing gives me the serious heebie-jeebies. And I don't get it either. I admit that I am somewhat impressed with movie weaponry props as much as the next guy but those are intended only for "make-believe." Is there a gene that inspires someone to collect deadly knives as opposed to sea-shells or books or McDonald's happy meal toys like the rest of us harmless OCD'ers?

I have no idea. But just think of the future Hoarders episode where they feature some partially toothless guy with a entire room of these stockpiled. Gulp.

    I might be inspired to open a bottle of beer with it.

    Holy crap. Didn't Kahn use that thing to eviscerate some red-shirt in Star Trek II?

    Maybe a little manly overcompensation?

    It looks like it could be useful for something.

    There is a "sharp pointy things collector" gene. It's the same one that draws people to Renaissance Fairs, Live Action Role Playing, and using the word "verily" in casual conversation.

    @Munk Not really bad idea Munk. Now it seem more useful.
    @DP I suspect you are correct.
    @Mrs.T Likely.
    @OT See Munk's comment.
    @Nicole Agreed.
    @Nubian Proceed with caution.
    @Pickleope That explain it. Thanks.
    @DSWS I suspect your dentist just shit a brick.
    @Windsmoke Ha. Windsmoke meet Mrs. Tuna.
    @Whit Whoa. I'd hate to see their butcher knives.
    @sprite Why doesn't this surprise me? ;)

    People who collect weapons kind of frighten me, unless the weapons are the type you'd find at a renaissance festival. Then they're ok. I'm not sure whether that knife-sword-thing counts or not. Don;t ask me why this is.

    I'm thinking you'd need one of these if the Klingons invaded.
