"True Facts" about the Peanut pattern knives...

Zatoichi once lost his sword but was able to find a peanut instead - it shined so bright even he could see it.
 
Back in the day, a gentleman's pocket knife was not allowed to be larger than his mustachio. A global shortage of moustache wax led to the advent of the Peanut...

While the true origins of the Peanut are lost to time, some believe the pattern originated on Galifrey, as the prototype for their space/time bending technology used in their (in)famous TARDIS vehicles, how else could the humble Peanut cut so well and pack so much cutting edge into it's diminutive frame, it's clearly Bigger on the Inside....


The Death of Discworld carries a Peanut as backup to his scythe, like his scythe, he has sharpened it on light itself, and it's edge is capable of separating matter at the subatomic level

Going to the grocery store and buying a bag of Peanuts is rather dissapointing, and borderline false advertising

The Peanut is NOT edible, no matter how delicious it looks, or high in fiber it is, Peanuts are not to be taken internally

Planting a Peanut in the ground will not grow more Peanuts :(
 
The seeds called "peanuts" in the bag were once free bonus items when you bought a peanut knife. That is how they got their name. It was like the reverse of Crackerjacks with their prize.
 
Space was at a premium inside the horse at Troy, thankfully the Greeks had peanuts.




During WWII the Americans, with the assistance of the UK'ers and Canadians, employed some 130,000 people and spent some 2 billion dollars to split the atom.

The Russians just used the peanut*.




*a feat which wouldn't have been possible for them without capturing German steel and knifemakers



Napoleon once said of his defeat at Waterloo, "I forgot my peanut on my dressing table"


Alexander cut the Gordian knot with a peanut.

Jim Bowie actually used his peanut as his main blade, his "Bowie knife" was for "just in case".


Yep, the diminutive peanut has had a long and storied past, favored and trusted by many, and kept it's place of preeminence until 1836 when the Republic of Texas was founded and with it the Texas Jack became the new king.

Little known fact, the "Texas Jack" was actually created by a fur trapper named Jack from Texas County, Missouri ;)

He invented the knife by welding two broken peanuts together.
 
Peanuts are cute little fellers. They can clean from under manicured nails without a trace left behind and open a package of lofat yogurt for lunch in a snap.:D
 
True fact, the peanut is the only knife sanctioned by the CDC for deanimating a zombie. I also knew an old man who told me the CV in Case carbon steel actually is an acronym for Circumvent Vampire....
 
the peanut is the jack of choice for the Jack Knife barber that drops Cross Eyed Mary off to school.
 
If Isildur had a peanut, instead of that pos Narsil, well, the book would have been shorter.
 
Jim Bowie actually used a Peanut on that sandbar. His opponents (the ones that survived) spread the rumor that Jim used a large knife to lessen the sting of their defeat.
