The Knife That Has Killed the Most People

I wish I'd seen 82DABN's post before I made mine, he said everything I was trying to say, but did it much better than I could......

Except for that bit on "facts versus statistics";)
 
Those box cutters would not have done much if those people knew what the terrorist were planning.I would be willing to bet that if someone stood up on a air plane now and pulled out one of those knives that were designed for terrorists by Blackie Collins they would have 1/2 a dozon people pile on them in a second.
 
that's why terrorists now will try to bring a bomb into a plane...

either way you're dead...

Breaking news for Point44...terrorists have actually used bombs on planes before...the wheel has already been invented...earth is round, not flat...;)

Edited to add the ;) so you don't think I'm a total bastard.
 
The knife most used in various killings is actually not really a knife, but an eating utensel. Submitted for your approval: The Kentucky Fried Chicken spork. Yes, you laugh now, but you haven't been there, day in and day out, seeing the carnage and human life wrecked by these sinister implements (or was that sin sister implements--oh, wait, that's the sex toys discussion, my bad.) Capable of producing gruesome, horrifying wounds, the spork is given away free with meals from the well-known outlet, where any child can get it. No safety locks, no waiting period, just a tragedy waiting to happen. The increase in accidental sporkings has risen dramatically over the years as people run with them in their hands, trying to get the last of the cole slaw at the buffet-equipped restaurants. Drive-by sporkings have also been on the rise with people unwilling to let bygones be bygones as far as getting even with the guy who got the last of the extra crispy go. Police officials also state that the spork is made of synthetic material, making its detection by metal detectors impossible. It is believed that the spork is the result of "stealth" technology bringing these new synthetics into the civilian world. Who knew that the B2 was one ginat spork? Homeland security officials are alarmed at the rise of sporks turning up in carry-on bag searches at major U.S. airports. They are second only to a just as macabre weapon, the nailclipper, in terms of weapons seized and their owners hustled off to detention centers where they are fed cafeteria-style macaroni-and-cheese (the kind with the elbow macaroni and lumpy cheese) and forced to watch Partridge Family re-runs until they disclose who told them to carry the spork on to the plane---whether it was Osama, Saddam, or the mysterious "Charlie" from the real quasi-government agency codenamed "Charlie's Angels", which reportedly recruits from the ranks of female idiots as the perfect cover. In many cases, according to one homeland security official who wished to remain anonymous, sporks are so hard to detect, that the baggage screeners cannot even detect them during the half-hour they are actually awake at their posts. In terms of lethality, the spork is second to none. Think of those aforementioned nailclippers with an attitude and you've got the spork. At one time, the spork was considered for inclusion in the military's elite "MRE" ration packages, but the Geneva Convention forbade saw-toothed eating utensels as inhumane. As a result, the spork does not even have a legitimate military use. Nor does it have a sporting use. Experienced hunters, some of whom have even recently filled their tags for the first time, report that dressing out game animals with a spork is impossible due to the damage done to the meat. According to one hunter, "...it looked like the deer had been dressed out by some sort of marsupial..." In a high-level report issued by the FBI, the spork is, quote, "...the single greatest theat on American streets today..." Please, help the National Coalition for Spork Safety address these threats and fight the growing influence of the spork-lobby in the halls of Congress with your kind donation of $500.
 
Knives are tools.

Some may use them as weapons, but I highly doubt anyone has invested more then $20 dollars into a knife with intentions of using them against another human being. (I'm not including SD)
 
HEY,I have the right to keep and bare arms even if it is a sprok.
You will have to pry my spork out of my cold dead hand and the drum stick out of the other.

I'm for SD, if it was up to me I'd change all CCW laws to Vermont's.
 
of course i know they've used bombs before...i'm just saying that now they know knives won't work anymore...

i was thinking about this...since a terrorist can't get through security to get on the plane with a bomb...why don't they just blow the airport up? you know...

at the security check...just when the security officer discovers your bomb...you press the detonator...kaboom...

scary to think isn't it...

Anyway...i don't think you're a total bastard torz...maybe half a bastard...hehehe...jk

i'd love to see a Busse Spork in INFI steel...i'd call it the Sporkster...or Sporky's Revenge...or Spork Chops...

aaahhhh


The Search for Spork
 
It should also be added that if people were allowed knives on planes, the second that terrorist stood up, he'd have more Victorinox's in him than a sporting goods store :D

I know they weren't afraid of the knife, but you never know.
 
It's probably a supper knife.

More people have been killed by high cholestrol than any could ever be by knife fighting.

When butterknives are illegal, only gluttons will have butterknives. Oh, stop the horror!
 
I have a titanium spork, far better than the clones, knockoffs amd Saturday night specials from KFC. It probably qualifies as an assault spork.
 
Why are U guys so mean???

Does anyone know the FBI stat about the single brand of knife with the most murders in the USA

Sounds like the same question asked by liberals when they saw a "problem" with guns "killing" people and decided they had better ban the guns to keep the guns from killing people. Just as guns do not kill people, knives do not kill people.

Perhaps a better question would have been is "When psychopaths murder people, which knife happens to be used more when a pipe is not handy", or better yet, "When a peace loving person is attacked by a criminal, which knife has proven to be the best at ending the threat".
 
How about a gun cutting up somebody useing a knife.Hey,a plot to the next big horor movie.
 
Brand aside, I am going to agree with whomever has posted machete. Kitchen knives may well be the knife of choice over here, but machetes have killed possibly millions of people in Africa and many of the Asian countries. It has also been used for this purpose in South and Central America.

Swords are a different classification than knives, so I don't think something like the Roman shortsword can be thought of as a knife.
 
In the past two centuries. Machetes.

Excluding third world countries, kitchen knives.
