It would have two opposing blades like the Dyad, but neither would be very sharp. Or, many blades, some bigger some smaller like a SAK, coming from every direction.

I am sure the blades would be sharp, it would just be the outside edge (when closed) that is a razor. The spine (pun intended) would fold inwards...

I'm kind of surprised That TAZKRISTI hasn't censored this thread :rolleyes: You all know how she doesn't like anything that leans toward "politics">> and who can blame her either :rolleyes:
As long as the thread stays in jest and nobody actually gets political we will be fine I think.

I am impressed we made it to page 2 without actually getting political. Let’s keep it up!

Yeah, I found this thread refreshing and got a couple of good laughs. I don’t think anybody has a problem with making fun of politicians as long as we don’t devolve into any “Yours are worse than mine” discussions. As long as we can agree that they are ALL awful I think we’re fine. :p

It will need a 4-way money clip....

I’m a little relieved that everyone seems to be taking this in the spirit of fun intended!

You buy the politician, then they let you know you didn’t pay enough for it and charge you again.

Not a "Politician" knife, but a Senator, and a Representative.

They could be colored to the parties.

Spyderco could also have a knife named, "The Judge."

This made me chuckle. I also think "Immoral" would be appropriate.

I'm in, only if I can buy one twice. Once online (mail) and once in person at the SFO. :D
P.S
A delightfully refreshing thread, well done!

The idea of a crooked blade is interesting. To me, the idea of straight, efficient cuts, just feels soulless and boring. No one likes a knife that's straight to the point.

It really should be a switchblade.
