Knife to use in Killer Whale ATTACK!

Glad to hear that buddy, if a killer whale attacks you, your tuna!

I kid you not. I saw a knife today that would work very well for killer whale defense. I don't know how you'd hold it, but if you could it take an orca in one slash.

My work today took me to a steam turbine factory where I went on a tour of the shop floor. There it was, a blade on a metal planer designed to take an eight foot wide shaving off a bar of stainless steel. Not eight feet long, eight feet wide.

Unbelievable.

By far the biggest, strongest blade I've ever seen.

I live close to Sea World in Orlando. Last year, after hours, a guy climbed the fence and decided to go swimming with Shamu. That's not a typo, Shamu is our famous Whale here in Fl!!! He jumped in the wrong pool with and untrained Killer Whale!!
He was TUNA!

This is where that "screw a pole onto my hollow handle survival knife" thread should have led.

I'll Bite.

Somewhere in my salad days I remember a harpoon knife made by I believe Cronk. It was a full size fighter with the blade ground and tipped like a double barb harpoon head.

THAR' SHE BLOWS MATTEY!

ALthough I believe the correct technique is to let the whale swallow you whole and cut your way out with a shark tooth ULU.

Cheers,

The weird thing about that guy who jumped the fence at Sea World is that he was found nude in the pool with Shamu. What in the hell was he trying to do?

Mike, suicide by f***ing Shamu. But let's not degrade one of natures perfect predators anymore.

Remember -- Orcas are alot bigger than great white sharks and are much, much smarter. Not an animal I would want to tangle with...

There is a Northwest Native Indian myth that stated wolves didn't die -- they just went out to sea and became orcas.

The best knife to defend against one is probably a fast moving propeller blade, god forbid you would ever need to...
