Some of us have been watching the progress about an incredible innovation in perhaps the most significant leap forward in small weapons since the first hand-cranked gatling gun introduced us to the world of machine guns. And just as a machine gun gave a huge advantage over single shot and muzzle loaded weapons, a company out of Cheshire CT has found a way to endow the carrier of their blade with unmatched lethality, and a huge advantage over standard knives.[FONT="]
This revolutionary weapon combines the utility of a high quality conventional blade with small, disposable gas-filled cartridges, which the user can suddenly release with the push of a button. The gas is forcefully vented through a nozzle towards the tip of the blade. As the gas vents into the target, it creates an enormous cavity inside it, filling it with the gas. Against a dangerous threat, like a shark, or wild animal, this would provide instant stopping power in an environment where the use of firearms are either prohibited, or impractical, and where a conventional knife would be inadequate.
As incredible as this device is, there are already additional developments underway, which could bring us an impressive array of attachments and add-ons, including some that are custom suited for military applications. There are already multiple versions, with multiple functions for use in different environments.
