Assault Knives?!?!

[Big Boomer]

I was just watching a new show called Shark last night (it's a lawyer show) and one of the stars is Jeri Ryan (another compelling reason to watch) and in one of the scenes she refers to the murder weapon as a...wait for it...

a "military style assault knife" :banghead:


and more

I just get sick of the way that the d4mn hollywood producers have to put a spin on everything.

Just a rant...where will it end...

Well, it's obviously time to ban bayonet lugs and flash suppressors on knives. These things have just gotten way too dangerous for civilians to own.

The only one I think you even vaguelly go there is the CZ SP-01 pistol with the scary bayonet.

It's just sooooooo tacti-cool...

My secret shame is that I want a CZ SP-01 with one of those bayonets.

They're just too ridiculous not to love.

This is pretty much off-topic for THR.

Well, we'll just move it to Non-Firearms Weapons where it fits.


BTW folks, if this sort of silliness annoys you why don't you join AKTI or Kniferights? Both of these organizations are out there fighting to keep this sort of stupidity from growing.

that CZ is a great gun.....for killing vampires.

Tacking adjectives on is the new hotness for spin. Tired of soda? Try Soda N-R-G XTREME!

It hurts my head to think someone could use the 'assault' moniker, for anything, and actually have it affect a listener. Ouch.

 

[jahwarrior]

pretty soon surefire lights will be called "assault flashlights", tomahawks: "assault axes", hinderer scribes: "assault pens", and and kubatons: "assault keychains."

Assault knives have been around for years. Some of the earliest ones were made of stone or obsidian.
I believe another early assault weapon was the jawbone of an ass, as mentioned in the bible.

And still in use by antis!

Do they mean a bayonet? How about a Farbain & Sykes (spelling?) or a claymore?

Ban the Buckets!

Assault knife? thats nothing. I posted a question on Yahoo! Answers about assault buckets, got some good answers too. Heres the link http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AoLXF3x8uF1KtxgCVSXmXLUjzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20070921203920AABi2nG

I remember an issue of American Rifleman where somebody was talking about baboon femurs, and how early governments tried to issue a ban on femurs beyond a certain length, or a femur you could swing faster than a certain speed, or number of swings per minute..

..gotta go find that.

Oh Crap! Thanks so much mgregg85, I was just washing my truck today and was using a bucket! AHHH! How could that have slipped my mind?

I will be more careful and push their banning with you.
