The "pucker factor" of some knives

I'm not sure anything is scarier than a simple straight razor:eek:
Those things just say SLICE!

Here's my two favorite "puckerizers". :)

Eric: just thinking about grabbing the handle of the Tiger makes me pucker.

If these don't contract your sphincter, you ain't humin':

Tom, when a maker doesn't perforate a knife properly with a gazillion various sized ventilation holes, the wind can often catch the knife with enough force to cause this bending phenomena shown in my photo above.
Afterall, when is the last time that you saw a bent block of swiss cheese? Probably never. :p
 
Ryan Biohazard Model 1 for folder! I know because I have one and I get the pucker factor just deploying the knife. You do not want to make a handling mistake with this folder. If I saw someone pull this knife out of thier pocket and deploy it, I would 'pucker'. For fixed blade, wait till you see the Ryan Biohazard 'Extreme Harbinger' that should be in the mail from Steve as I type! -Dick
 
I thought it was poor hole placement + uneven grind that made those things bend into that funny configuration!! :p








:rolleyes:
 
The scariest blade I have ever seen is the Coleman 8” folding saw! (I kid you not) The blade is bigger that most Bowies. Only $10. A thug can hide it in his jacket(or loose pants). Latch sucks, but in self-defense (yours) he will open the saw first and good luck getting it to fail! Nasty teeth, many, pointy and DULL! It won’t kill you! Yes, you read right, a good slash will not kill you, the teeth prevent penetration (unlike on a Spydie ) HOWEVER, the cut to say, your bicep, will be grievous and hurt like hell. You will have many moderately deep cuts. Your arm will look like hamburger and THE DOCTOR WON’T BE ABLE TO FIX IT! In fact, you will probably lose your arm. This is also true of used chef knives (my #2). Dull, chipped, and rusty!

Funny, WE catch hell for our knives but no one cares about the above! Hell, the folding saw is legal almost anywhere, EVEN IN CALIFORNIA! Yet, at the same time I, A U.S. Marine cannot even own a 4” lockback on base.

I was hesitant to post this. Wouldn’t want the wrong people to find out about it, but it is more important the Honest people be told. The thugs figure it out on their own and then tell their buddies.
 
In the UK, anything big looks scarry as people don't come across them at all.

I'll second Cut throat razers.

My example would be the Al Mar Shadow II, the longer of the daggers. It has that look that its whole purpose was to be stuck into people deep until they were dead :eek: :barf:
 
Cast one vote for the Al Mar Pathfinder with double edge. Makes a hell of a neck knife! Honorable mention should also go to the full sized Smatchet. Tactical, but you can also paddle a canoe with it:D

Not to rip on those of us posting neat pix and web sites, but we are talking about "pucker" factor here, not coolness factor. We want scary so your sphincter spasms. You ever have that feeling where you want your butt to be the first part out the door as you walk away? That is pucker factor.

I have no problem with talking about cool knives, that is the point behind this forum; I just don't want to see this post water down to a listing of "X knife is cool!"

Thank you.

I did up above, Fred. Here's a close-up of the blade of my Ryan Biohazard M1. :)

Howz bout a 8" fixed blade (14" total length) weighing in at 1.25 pounds that was hand crafted by Walter Brend ? Of course, high polish and a 3/4 length false edge. . . Talk makin' it pucker ! :D

Of course. . .can leave out a JSP Arch Angel II ! ;)

And. . . .a DDR 420V razor sharp EDC, a Microtech SOCOM DA (old grind) and a Microtech SOCOM LCC DA as back-ups !

Damn. . .almost forgot. . .can't leave out a large Kit Carson Model 4 clip done up in satin finish ! :D

It's enough to make ya wanna cry ! :D :D
 
Anybody ever take a close look at the BK&T Patrol Machete?;)

I don't think anything looks more wicked than that Tiger, but some of Jerry Hossom's blades, and several of Joel Pirela's designs are really badass, too.
 
Owen, Hossom is who I immediately thought of. Pirela's designs are awesome (I still dream of you, Sensei) but I'd be more inclined to take a closer look at the blade than run if someone flashed a Pirela-inspired knife at me.

And the though of someone swinging a Spyderco Chinook or Battle Mistress at me makes me feel like my Uncle Mel. And Uncle Mel wears rubber pants.
