New Design?

Under what circumstances did you guys find yourselves being stabbed or shot!?!?

Especially YOU OldPhysics. Pass a disgruntled colleague an incorrect formula?
 
(1) I had a couple of knives pulled out my drunks when I was a bouncer long ago.

(2) Minor cuts/stabbs in "live blade" training. Safety was always tops but things happen.

(3) My worts was a self-inflicted cut. :) Cut myself in the leg whle cutting card board. 3 layers of stitches. Carless mistake on my behalf.

But nothing major.
 
So ...

... is this what's gotten you worried about 'staying on topic?' :confused:

All this chatter has to end.

Where are the discussions of Rockwell hardness?

Where is the thread on INFI versus D2?

Where is the thread on FSH and variants?

Where will the madness end? :eek: :eek: :eek:
 
That's it Guyon! For "trolling" and trying to stirr the pot I am giving you the "chicklet" I just received today. :p
 
Maybe this in clip???

Mike,

WOW!!

Which knives are these?

Who has them?

How much will one of them cost me?

I don't remember seeing these before. :eek:

That would certainly be one possibility. You wouldn't BELIEVE how incensed some of these older, more uptight scientists get over a little joke ...

"No, Herr Professor Doktor Weissler, I didn't REALLY mean your vacuum chamber is smaller than mine."

"I'm sorry, Professor Bernardson, I genuinely thought you would appreciate having all your petrie dishes cleaned. I didn't know you were running a ten year long, double-blind study!"

Sheesh!

But no. While you can never tell when some outraged PhD might shiv you, my unhappy personal encounters with unpleasant metallic objects are the result of two things: 1) a misspent youth in old Central California, and 2) quite a few decades on active duty in the US military.

Someday we can discuss my even more unpleasant experience with rolling hills, a Husqvarna dirtbike, and a family station wagon driven (poorly) by an inattentive young lady. Brrrr...that one still makes my spine quiver. :grumpy:

Much more importantly -- that bottom knife in Mike's picture is calling my name!!
 
You gotta watch out for the old guys. I don't think any of the old timers at my shop would stab me, but you'd be surprised how swiftly those old goats can toss a hardened block of D2! Corners hurt!

Living across from Detroit i'm sorta worried about a random stabbing during the weekend pub crawl - you can never be too sure. You Americans can get awful rowdy!
 
I worry about old ladies in the grocery store line. You never know who's packing a shiv. :eek:

It's a cruel, cruel world. :(

Of course, we could all take to wearing a fine mesh chainmail. ;)

...might make it tough to board a plane or enter a federal building or...

Never mind. :p

These were proto knives offered at Blade '05. The bottom one was originally mine, Hammy now has all three of them, so getting one might be impossible unless Jerry makes more! :D
