The Bill Blade.

I wonder how many they have in stock!!!! Oh damn, I where a beanie! I'll make due!

I think those will be in stock for a long time! If they sell out quick, that would just make me sad! If anyone can snap a pic of one in the wild, that would be amazing!! Like that guy at Winco that had every fixed blade he owned attached to his tactical outfit!
 
I've been getting LEO briefings on these things for a couple years now, nothing new. Nothing exciting either.
 
Seems this would be both more effective and infinitely more cool

Now, don't be too hasty, boys. This has two huge tactical advantages.

1) It marks you as "the prepper", so that the Active Shooter knows exactly who to target first.

2) It marks you as somebody for the police to take into custody and question when they sweep the scene looking for suspects.

This extraordinary bayonet hat is one of those weird and curious wonders that would have allowed a soldier in the trenches to defend or attack by either charging head long or removing their head piece for more conventional hand-to-hand combat. The brainchild of Philip Baker in England, it was patented in 1916 and submitted to the War Office for approval. Although ultimately denied (they deemed it too dangerous) it is amazing in its own right. The only prototype came to light just last year from a private collector. Designed to be retrofit onto a hat, metal helmet or pith helmet (each with minor adjustments). Ours follows the original patent drawings and is made from leather, high carbon steel blade and aluminum base with locking slide collar. Includes leather sheath with brass fittings as the prototype had. The only production version of its kind. Pith helmet and knife available separately.
  • Blade: 8-1/2".

This would make for a great carnival game. Wear the helmet and run around while folks lob rings or fruit... or cats into the air. First person to get one stuck wins.

Attach a couple of dipping cups to the side and you'd have a great mobile onion ring rig. :thumbsup:

I dislike you immensely. Switched to a ketogenic diet recently. Going great. I feel a lot better, have a ton of energy, shedding weight, etc.... but I really miss onion rings.
