Jesus Christ! I saw this in the back of April’s Lee Valley catalog. Machete, axe and sickle all in one.

  1. Now all you need is a moth collection, stainless steel sink and a 15 foot hole in your basement.

  2. That is one stupid looking blade. Don’t get me wrong, I normally like the look of fantasy weapons but you’d be better off just using a normal machete. The hook on the back isn’t sharp enough or angled enough to serve its intended purpose. Which I’m going to assume is ripping into the flesh of living animals. Nice guard however, albeit crude looking.

  3. That’s not a fantasy weapon. The design is old US military if I’m not mistaken, and that hooked edge in back is for small tree limbs If memory serves. I wish I could remember when it was used.

  4. Which I’m going to assume is ripping into the flesh of living animals

    Yeah that’s exactly what a sickle is for

  5. i wish i was as smart as hound

  6. Oh look the trolls have come to play.

    that hooked edge in back is for small tree limbs
    Ok then it’s seemingly pointless then, it’s a machete it should be able hack through small tree limbs. Or god forbid someone could pull the limb back with their hand *shocked gasp*.

    Yeah that’s exactly what a sickle is for
    Fuck you that’s not a sickle. Also since I don’t know about 1920 when was the last time someone used a sickle for it’s intended purpose?

    Damn voice my opinion and all of sudden the trolls get talkative. Where were you on any of the other topics hmm?

  7. @hound

    lolololololololololololol I troll u! lololololololololol

  8. Jeah! Old star of the zombie forums.
    As far as i know, it was originally a WWII. jungle tool, of the american forces in the pacific area.

  9. “The WOODMAN’S PAL® machete is preferred by: ….Gardeners”

    lol of shit, don’t be late with that guys pay.

  10. @nestor wrong a sickle was used for harvisting grains like wheat or barly
    also the sickle part looks like you can put a beer on it:P

  11. @killernat

    I think he was being sarcastic they seem to have decided I’m an idiot.

    Looking at the machete I assumed it was also meant to be a weapon so I thought of this type of sickle http://images.elfwood.com/art/w/i/willy/sickle.gif
    which nowadays is only ever used as a horror movie weapon for disemboweling.

  12. Kids, play nice. :p

    But ya, that’s not a fantasy weapon.

    It’s too bad Lee Valley doesn’t have an affiliate program because I’d do them some major pimpin’. Especially now that I have a backyard.

    This ultra-sonic cat repellent is pretty tempting. o_O

  13. My cat always uses the bathroom outside I prefer it that way. I don’t have to empty any litter boxes.

  14. Nevermind what I said earlier x_X guys, go at it!

  15. @hound that remided me of the driud ceromonial sickle
    http://high-elves.org/images/druid_sickle.jpg

  16. That cat repellent thing is really cool! My cats always leave legendary dumpers in my rhubarb and chives. I know the poop is good for plants, but the pee will ruin them.

  17. @hound

    im very proud of you and your cat. i wish i could be as cool as you and your cat.

    PS- did you learn all your expansive knowledge of weapons from elfwood? you are awesome.

  18. @Anonymous 1:05am
    Obviously I don’t have a garden so that’s not a concern for me, you however could probably get stand to use that sonar cat repellent to protect your garden.

    @Anonymous2:36am
    Obvious, and very shitty troll detected. :P

  19. @hound
    Whoa man, no need to get all defensive. I didn’t design the thing, I’m just being informative. No disrespect intended.

  20. No disrespect intended.

    My apologies Kingsnake, like I admitted earlier I thought I was being trolled.

  21. I think it would look cooler without the sickle, but I want one. :D

  22. Hound do you have a fan site? Can I send you money? I want to show my devotion to your genius and your genius cat.

  23. @ Anonymous 9:02 PM

    *you’re

    If you’re going to be a troll at least use proper grammar. Also sarcasm doesn’t work well over the internet. It just doesn’t.

  24. I’m pretty sure you’re is used as a shortened version of “you are”, and the original statement was correct. Also, cocks.

  25. Are Moth and Hound the same guy or just gay lovers? Not that there`s anything wrong with that…

  26. Anonymous 2:54 AM

    Nope not same, not gay, and your trolling still sucks. Seriously try harder.

  27. Seriously, hound and Moth must be the same because they both come off like 12 year olds trying to sound smart and important (about things like swords, cats, and grammar) while simultaneously proving they are complete idiots. Surely there can`t be two children like that commenting on the same blog.

  28. And you clearly think you’re soooo much better, ?irony?.

  29. Hound and Moth are not the same person. But Hound and the last Anon do have the same IP address.

  30. lol I’ve been exposed, before the next shit storm please note that I trolled myself earlier for lulz in the spirit of the thread.

    @hound

    lolololololololololololol I troll u! lololololololololol

  31. Hey y’all shiggidy diggidy.

    Look all y’all niggers need to just chill the fuck out ight. You’re ruining my buzz, who the hell cares what some crackers think of some crazy ass over sized knife anyway? That shit aint got jack on my .45 yo.

    Not I got to go cuz I got some sick ass sticky buds calling me. If I come back and you crackers still be fighting ima have to bust cap. You dig?

  32. Whoa! Dude’s right. I was wrong with my grammar nazi-ness. Sorry for sounding like such a bitch dudes. Lack of sleep and the internet is not a good mixture. >.<

  33. This is the last time I talk about knifes. :p

  34. I sort of enjoyed this, but since I’m at least partially responsible… Sorry about the shit storm Sirkowski, I didn’t think my opinion would make things get ugly. -_-’

  35. But knives are fun! I need some for the zombie apocalypse! :D

  36. @Bailey
    zombie apocalypse

    You must like the up close and personal zombie fighting fantasy. I’d rather have a gun amongst other things hopefully less getting eaten by zombies that way imo.

  37. @hound

    Anything will do for me. Just harder to get my hands on a gun. But I like axes, knives, sledgehammers, etc. Whatever works.

    And very improbable that there will be a zombie apocalypse, but if the world has to end, I’d find that way fun. Get a lot of violence in before you die. :D

  38. And very improbable that there will be a zombie apocalypse

    As many times as I’ve heard people talk about the idea of a zombie apocalypse I’ve rarely heard anybody else mention that it would probably never happen. You mam/sir seem to be of a logical, reasonable mind I like that.

    I just find the idea of surviving using a melee weapon very improbable. Zombies are usually depicted as having a mob mentality so eventually you’d find yourself facing off against something like 50+ zombies at once. That would be a damn tough situation to get out of with a melee weapon.

    The template if anyone’s interested. http://img217.imageshack.us/i/zombiesurvival.jpg/

  39. It appears this knife is also good for opening cans of worms.

  40. i like both knives and guns, but would propably get my ass handed to me by the zombies anyway…

  41. too many anonymouses

  42. anonymice?

  43. Haha! I like that. All you silly anonymice. :D

  44. my grandma always say : fighting in the internet is like running for the special olympics: you may win, but you’re still retarded.

  45. I don`t mind being retarded as long as I win.

  46. I have used a sickle actually, though a scythe is more fun, plus you get to SPEAK IN ALL CAPS

    And irony and sarcasm work just fine unless you’re talking with Americans in which case you need to use tags

  47. fucking wordpress isn’t a real tag even the browser doesn’t get it

  48. damn I’m trying to write sarcasm tags but it keeps stripping them out. I know there are exploits but that’s a little paranoid. Can’t use greater or lesser than signs at all?

  49. Maybe if you use ASCII. < >

    Edit: Yep!

  50. Wow you guys obviously don’t get out much.

    This type of River knife(AKA Jungle knife) is fairly common.

    Thought the hook is advertised as for cutting small branches anyone who has ever hunted, is a vapid outdoors man, or ever under went basic military survival training can tell you it is functions most widely as a gutting tool.

    Far be it from me to tell you genius what you obviously already know.

    Anywho…

    @ Baily

    Haha, so naive. Tell the Americans it can’t be done and they will not only do it but find a way to muck it up for the rest of us.
    http://www.cracked.com/article_15643_5-scientific-reasons-zombie-apocalypse-could-actually-happen.html

    Fun little fact: The US military actually has a granch dedicated to “Reanimation Research”. Apparently even though they watch more TV than any other country they don’t seem to learn anything from it.(Not that we don’t already know that from watching American Idol. Name a show that is less about talent and more about prepubescent girls and I will eat my own ass)

  51. but i like prepubescent girls (`^´)

  52. I like to eat their asses

  53. @Ronin

    You kinda just made my day. And I can’t think of anything to say that will make you eat your own ass. XD

  54. @ Bailey

    I am a wealth of Knowledge and useless trivia feel free to pick my brain any time, just promise me you won’t eat it.

    Stay safe and don’t let the Zombies eat you.

  55. oh ya the otakuthon pre registration is open im going to concordia to pay tomarow
