Jun 16 2008Knife Injects Compressed Gas Into Stabee

I like the guy in the video that looks so proud of himself afterward

o wow i cant till they put that knife into a movie and have blood just flying out of ppl's bodies, its going to be wicked.

weak. lightsaber type is the only thing i am waiting for. not a farting knife

tru very true BUT a light saber would never show blood the way you would think. it would coagulate the blood as soon as it is done cutting leaving a arm chopped off with no blood, perfect for murders and those who want to commit suicide that dont want any one cleaning up after them.

Actually, an icecicle is the best thing for a murder...ehhum, just saying.

Anyway, hasn't a knife similar to this been around for awhile? I could have sworn that I've heard about this already, so I suppose the term "old" should be applied.

Oh, and just FYI, my name pertains to my smoking habit, not my looks. So all of you big and bad individuals who make piffy comments or who leave me messages, you would be being clever except for the fact that, well, you're not. So please, if you're going to waste my time with insults, let's be original...and let's also try to be more cutting and hurtful. This icy, black heart of mine is hard to penetrate. So *clap, clap* bring in the clowns.

That is all.

That's crazy........I really did wake up to my roommate sharpening a knife one night, while starring at pictures of his ex-girlfriend. I think everything worked out because the next night I woke up to him banging his GF doggy style about 3 feet away form me.........YAY happy ending.

agh smokinggirl can always count on her to bring in a good laugh, and the icecicle, purely BRILLIIIIIIIIANT !!!......if of course someone was trying to you know.....

I would load it up with heroin and then if I tried to kill myself at least it would feel good bleeding out....Hmm, that was a bit morbid for me.

"Happy Belated Father's Day! Mortal wounds and an air embolism."

"Aww, you shouldn't have....AHH YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE!"

Oh yea, don't be picking on SG if you know what's good for you! Or even if you don't know what's good for you! Or even if you know but refuse to realize what's good for you! Or even if you realize and know but don't understand or recognize what's good for you! Or even if......Just don't do it, OK?!?!

My college roommate would chew her fingernails and spit them out onto the carpet, leave her used panties in my bed, and had some weird genetic thing where she generated more blood cells and sweat or something so she always smelled like piss. She's also an obsessive, crazy stalker.

So yeah, I'd take the knife-sharpening guy any day of the week, so long as he knows how to use a damn vacuum.

This sucks badly.

Knife crime's got so bad over here (UK), I really hope these dont get onto the streets. There's not a week goes by where some school kid doesn't get cut and die for stepping on some chav scums pumas. Probably worth noting that unless you're in a war and trying to kill someone really painfully and nastily that a stabbing should be a last resort attack to kill someone. I can imagine that firing a compressed stream of gas into someones chest or stomache would probably blow their insides round, tear softer organs and create the most horrifying pain imaginable before they died of an embolism and blood loss. Everyone selling and buying these should be shown a vid just so they know the nightmares they'll be having if they ever use one.

BTW more killer robots please, and surely there are some vibrating womanly parts worth a mention on the interweb? They have been somewhat lacking over the past few months..

Combining a knife and a gun - genius! Now if they could only find a way to add drugs into the mix...... Maybe if it shoots compressed air out one end and whiskey/LSD out of the handle.....

Smoking Girl.... I thought of the icicle as well but I also think it would only be practical on the ice planet of Hoth.

smoking girl, could you have not just put in a different name, and saved yourself a bit of time writing that bulls*** paragraph that you wrote which then lead onto us wasting time reading it, and myself writing this rubbish.

First of all, Ash, you didn't have to write your rubbish, which was quite rubbishy (Is that a word? I think not...). Secondly, if I were to change my name then I would just be giving into the tyranny of the asshats. Thirdly, if you are going to write a snarky response to my bullshit paragraph, it had better be grammatically correct or else it makes you and your rubbish completely moot.

And thank you, Scott, for your kind words. I'm glad that we're back together again. Now come over here and get your Black Silk fix.

If I were a smoker, I'd probably spend more time smoking and less time baiting trolls in the Comments section of tech/geek websites. Or maybe this is some kind of ploy to get enough comments written so that they can actually begin screening out the spam/unrelated posts? Either way, I can see the guy in the video has played knifie-spoonie before.

SG, where are you getting this idea that we were ever apart?

this kind of looks pointless in the real world. Most stab wounds happen in an instant (not that I can speak from experience, but seriously).

The only way it would work is if you wee to tell your victim "please don't make any sudden movements after I stab you. You see, I then need to press this button to inject you with compressed air, so your death will be even more painful ad greusome... okay?"

Of course, watch I find out its all automatc and that this post has no meaning. If its automatic, does it have a powersource? If so I can hear it now... "sorry sarge i kifed the guy, but my knife ran out of batteries..."

either way, kinda stretching it.

Sorry to be a stickler about the facts, but BLOODnGUTSinMOVIES, you used the wrong term. A lightsaber will CAUTERIZE a wound. Meaning burn veins and/or arteries closed so no blood spills out. Coagulation is when blood thickens or hardens like at the site of a open wound to form a scab. Star Wars geek + Medical school = Good Times!!

Freddy K, it uses compressed air. So when the "stabber" presses a button or something it would release the compressed air. Not sure how much air is released or how much the tank holds, but you would have to relpace the air tank after it is empty. No batts required.

JFreezy, thats exactly my point. If this is relying on a manual device the probability of error (timing) is very high - especially for a "quick" stab as in combat.
However if used in a situation where the victim would not be allowed to react, or there is plenty of time to "press the button" while the blade is still in the victim... then its pretty f***ing useless. because if you have that much time one would think you can execute a lethal stab wound without the need for the air.
thus the manual mode seems pointless in real world.

But what do I know. I make it a habit to avoid knife fights.

Man the knife is my favorite wepon and this is looking very sexy in my eyes. It might also be that I am Latino.

i can tell right now, that none of you putz's have ever been through any kind of edged weapon training, so let me explain a couple concepts to you:

this tool/weapon doesn't rely solely on the gas being released to act as an effective close quarter sidearm, but the gas release is yet another small advantage for the soldier/user in the event of a close quarter combat situation. i could think of a few scenarios where this would come in handy. it only takes one of these scenarios for the soldier/user to die in the event that the edged weapon is ineffective, so any type of additional advantage given to the user will be beneficial.

...plus, you train the individual user to use the button in close-quarter combat, and he will be effective at using the button "in an instant", as you may call it.

This is truly a revolutionary weapon/tool. I don't see the army adopting it as a standard tool, but I can definitely see a use for it in special operations loadouts and for wildlife officers the world over.

It's a useful tool. ..oh and SmokingGirl, I believe you may need to become "XanaxGirl" or something. Relax. Gawdayam! You're starting to make it into a Springer episode up in here. I love you though. I wish you happiness too.

honk honk!

wait... i'm sorry. let me apologize for that last one.

@13, that would defeat the purpose. The whole point of the icicle as a stabbing weapon is that it melts and then evaporates, leaving no trace of the murderer's fingerprints.

@SmokingGirl, http://www.futureofthebook.org/sivavaidhyanathan/archives/dee.jpg

DoublePost! :D

Maybe the point of the gas is as a distraction? I mean, if I was in a knife fight and a sudden burst of mustard gas or something blew into my face, I'd feel pretty f***in' disoriented.

This isn't an outdoors knife, the only possible use for this is to kill people in the most sadistic, painful and messy way possible. Anyone caught with one of these on the streets needs locking up for a long long time.

For diving, I could see some use. On land, no. Most of the stated tactical users rely on knives for utility far more than they do for last ditch defense, and the hole in the blade is inherently going to have structural compromises.

I am also skeptical of the build construction. "Surgical Stainless Steel" is the mark of poorly constructed knives everywhere. Is it a 4xx series steel? What's the rockwell hardness? If (God forbid) I am using a knife for defense, I'd rather have something that can take and hold a sharp edge than something that blows air in the wound.

@17

Sorry you had to learn it this way, Momboelitist, but... shhsss.. it's not easy...
ah, that's it!!
me and SG had an affair..

...sorry, lad...

It had to come out one way or the other...

Yes, Scott, as #29 stated, we had a fling. It had to happen sooner or later...and poop, these postings were nothing compared to the cannibal episode. That was, well, ridiculous.

And I can't believe that my icicle idea was not original. *sigh* I suppose the short murder/horror story I wrote is now completely useless.
Just like the story I wrote about a disgruntled husband who killed his wife then burned away the flesh and whatnot in acid and hung the skeleton in his office. It was called "In Plain Sight" and I found it most original...until I read a book which had the exact same storyline. I was most upset; so DAMN!

When did this become pickonsmokinggirlology?

@15. So you pick at grammatical errors? I thought I was out of middle school...

so what exactly does the compressed air DO to the stab wound???? i need visuals, because all i can see is an air embolus

@5
Oh god not that gay book...

...I don't want to give these sickos more ideas, but if they incorporate a hook in that blade; the downward motion created by the release of the gas will ease evisceration greatly.

Also, cutting one end of a Q-Tips and sticking it in the knife gives you a pretty neat and deadly Q-Tips Launcher. Any foes seeing this will quit before engaging you.

It could be used too as a mean of propulsion in space.
(what you're doing in space in the first place is none of my business...)

Me thinks I threw up in my mouth thinking of SmokingGirl having sex with ANYONE. hah! But all jokes in bad taste aside;

This knife looks cool... : ) Our military's becoming so badass...

I have an better idea. Instead of air, make it shoot bullets. That would be a badass knife. Oh, and loose the blade too.

@33

It's all physics, whenever a compressed gas is released it cools down. When you release a lot of gas all at once it freezes. So, when you stab your target with this knife and then release the gas it will instantly freeze all of the surrounding tissue.

@36

Hey, she said I was her first!...

...eeh... First what, after all?..

She didn't told me!... Could be anything!...

Damn!

Aww man, That would kill the person in 5 seconds, mostly the air going through the blood streams to the heart. I think you would have more to worry about then a piece of metal in your flesh...

@39

Great, you were the first to get scarred for life.

the way i heard it worked was using compressed nitrogen and when being inserted would freeze the organ of the attacker. umm, i mean shark, yeah.

Liquid Nitrogen!

Anybody knows Ursula? (from Brainiac)

@41

Scarred for life? What do you mean? ...She's been really soft on me, using silk for the bondage, or... maybe steel wire...
I can't remember well enough, I was drunk anyway!

I like knives. They're like big metal penises.
Maybe some poisonous liquid contained by an external sack at the base of the handle shaft could be ejaculated when the air spews out.

@43

You MUST have been... : P

eeh...

...

Thinking about it now, I may have been raped...

You sounds bitter, Sev.

Maybe you've had bad experience(s) in your childhood (or recently)?

You can tell, I won't judge you.

@smokinggirl. I can see where you are coming from with the whole name thing and the "i ai'nt gonna let the man drag me down" attitude, but i mean, don't you think it's a tad monotonous and...well, lame, that you find that you must increase the size of your e-penis at every post? You basically asked for trouble with your "don't mess with me" paragraph at the start and from there felt you had to let everyone know about your personal sex life to a bunch of forum geeks to provoke people and grant them more ammunition so you could argue more. If you wish to reply to this and give a smart ass response telling me how wrong i am and how stupid this comment was go ahead but i won't be on this forum again as It was a random internet find. I just thought id let you know how petty you're being, go outside and just stop the futile passive-agressive, attempts at getting an argument out of someone so you can win the argument and have your ego triple in size. Please stop. Over and out.

Oh God...

...you've been molested, do you?

thats f***in cool

GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

did u guys realize ur completly off subject, ur using this like a chat room!

I know.

I should change name to:

The Off-topic Writer.

So, hereby, I declare myself as

"The Off-topic Writer"

There! You asked for it!

Nobody messes with anyone.

it is just compressed air. once it gets into your bloodstream you die instantly

@38 your a retard.... look at #54 that is what actually happens

Crazy man...

Actually - for those that are saying this would be useless on land and is only meant for killing people - these are being touted as a last resort defence for outdors people - i.e. if a grizzly is going to get so close that ll you have is a split second to stab it before it scrapes your face off, then you really want something which is going to stop it in its tracks. The knife injects sufficient compressed air to make a basket-ball sized cavity and the gas is cold enough to instantly freeze vital organs and tissues in the vicinity of the wound. That will kill pretty much anything. Instantly. Nope- the gas isn't a 'diversion tactic'!
I first read about this just before I (re)read an article about 'Chompy', the rogue grizzly bear in Yosemite. At about the time all those campers were getting chomped, I was hiking Yosemite creek on my own... Yup - I can see a use for it.

actly...i would love to make fun of this knife but i can't, because of this reason...it actly is kinda cool if you know what it can do, this could be EXTREAMLY dangerless weapon for this reason...now im not fully sure if im right about this but, if you put air in to a persons blood vains...they die don't they?, i belive so....once it hits the brain i think, because the brain must have blood in it, if this weapon was in the right hands it could do a considerable amount of damage...possablely deadly it really is qhite engenius, and another think...what if inseed of air they changed it out with poison? like put some poison in the hole..so when they stab you its jeted up inside the person...as i said, this knife is no jokeing matter for someone who knows what there doing..on idea wise....body wise...and skill wise, it just takes the right combo....i wouldn't dout assasons would like this alot, only problem is...if it could be traced back to them, and no im no psycho or go around killing people..i just know alot more then i should on some things heh, curous mind and such, but i also don't do a full detailed recoard of the body so i might be wrong about that...but i think im right about that air in the vains thing, hell look it up?, i wouldnt even dout thats why they made it?, you guys are laughing, but i bet they knew...they seen the possableys, also think of this..what would damage the heart more...then just plain stabbing it, oh i don't know...stay a VERY strong burst of steam?, its only almost as compercated as the damn brain.

Scary as hell. Happy to prefer love making to war making.

@58: genius talk.

Its like those gas bullets that james bond uses in one of the films. The main bad guy dude get shot with one, inflates like a balloon and explodes. F*cking wicked special-defects.

@ 54 and 55:

You two are f***ing stupid, learn some physics. Why did you agree with 54 blindly when he is completely wrong?

I hate misinformation.
