Have you seen these knife shows on TV?
It's like home shopping and they have deals like 50 knives for $199.00 and shit..LOL. I am watching one now, it is some redneck dude trying to sell a shitload of knives for a "deal". You get about 30 knives from pocket-knives to swords.

WTF is anyone gonna do with all these knives? Right now, 5 swords for $118.00. 5 swords?..LOL wtf?

3. But you can cut through sheets of metal with them!
Isn't that just what you've always wanted to do? ISN'T IT?

4. With all 50 of them
I guess if I was a serial killer, it would be a good deal.

5. Yeah, like this guy? He sure loves those cheap swords
Hopefully he also loves sutures and had good heath insurance.

*sigh*

You get what you pay for. If a knife cost $4, then you'd better not expect a whole lot.

My boss got me a Benchmade switchblade tactical knife for helping him move. Out of curiosity I looked up the MSRP and it ran over $200(!!!).

Insane, isn't he?

But, I know which knife I'm grabbing when somebody's breaking into my bedroom. It's the one that the cops and SWAT teams carry, not the QVC special.
