The WASP INJECTION KNIFE
Since World War II, the military has seen its soldiers equipment go through radical changes and technological advances. Modifications have been made to nearly every aspect 
of military equipment and gear. Advances in weaponry and even things as simple as a pair of boots make our fighting men the best equipped soldiers in the world.
Technological innovation in defense products has continued and the patent-protected design of a new breed of knife has been introduced in the form of The WASP Injection Knife. The WASP Injection Knife features a new age take on man’s oldest tool, one that combines technology with practicality. It is a multi-shot gas injection weapon that is easy-to-use, easy-to-reload and delivers up to a 24g shot of compressed gas at 800 psi. on land or underwater. It is silent when used and highly effective in close quarters urban combat.
The WASP is ideally suited for:
* Special Ops Troops (Land or Sea)
* Downed Pilots Stranded In Open Water
or Remote Forests
* Military Survival Kits
* S.W.A.T. and Special Police
* Security Guards
MSRP $379.95

I love this knife! I’ve gotta have one of them. I’ve found all kinds of C02 cannisters on the net - some up to 60g - used to inflate life rafts, etc.. The biggest one that the knife takes is 24g - built into the handles. I suspect that all you really need is the adaptor, a 24g cannister and some insulating material over the cannister so as to not freeze your hand.
I’d like to see what a 60g cannister attached to this knife would do to that watermellon!

This is not a new idea. When I started scuba diving(late 1960’s early 1970’s), there was a weapon called the “Shark Dart”. There were two models. One was hand held with a short shaft and one had a long spear like shaft. Both had a round shaft with a sharp point on the end(with air holes). The idea was to drive it through the tough shark hide and it would fire on impact. I never had to use it. For a limited application it could be useful but you need a sheath for safe carry. Consider this an extremely dangerous weapon.

Nice knife, and good idea for diving but not for out of the water. Should have much harder penalties for having any type of knife when not being used for a trade. So many silly kids carrying knifes and guns and not being able to use their fists.

1) security gaurd?? great for exploding the insides of some 14 year old stealing from Walmart corperation….. yeah right.
2) this knife looks VERY unuseful as a daily sheath knife in the woods. The fattest part of the blade is in the middle; which makes for a terrible cutting tool
3) shark knife - maybe, but the have had better shark injectors for DECADES with better reach
4) silent killer - absolutely not. people are rarely silent when their insides are being exploded
5) all in all - grossly overpriced, a moronic attempt to compete with the handgun, and a very unethical device, gauranteed to be misused by creeps
save your money, and support concealed carry rights for people that are not criminals, you’ll need your glock when a creepo tries to stab you with even just a 4 dollar knife.

Violence is rarely the answer. But sometimes on rare occasions it is the ONLY answer. There are many weapons and skills that should be deployed before this knife ever leaves the sheath. First of all is survival instinct. Dont put yourself into a dangerous situation, unless you absolutely have to! Second, this is a CQC weapon, (that means close quarters combat) to the uninitiated. Whish means if you can use this on someone, then it can also be taken away and used on you. (something to think about.) Self defense is better performed at a distance. (Outside arms reach.) Perferably with a Handgun, Taser, Pepper Spray, Etc.) At the very most this knife should be considered a list-ditch, back-up weapon to be used when all other means have failed.

To Danny: Cops are cowards and the people that want to be cops - especially former armed forces personnel - should be banned from becoming cops. Although I would not like to see anyone injured, the phrase “just desserts” would come to mind if this weapon was used on some cop that was trying to brutalize an innocent person, like we have all seen too many times on the news.

The company that makes the WASP does more selling on their website about its use for a diver against predators. Personally I want one for when I am diving, I hate sharks that think I am food.

Looks like a great concept for a dive knife. Has it been shark tested? The LEO “you might hurt us with that” crowd will have it banned by congress before christmas.

What are you people buying a knife for, to whittle wood? I doubt it, despite all the humanitarian rhetoric. If I am required to draw a knife to defend myself, my aim would not be to mercifully wound them, but to kill them as quickly as possible, not wave it in their face and hope they go away.
Questions remaining: 1) Does it require a permit to carry? 2) Is it, as one writer suggested, permitted by CWC regulations?
Finally, dead is dead. If you kill someone, no matter how you do it, it will leave a hole in your soul for the rest of your life. I know. I was stabbed, and I had to defend my self, to live. And I’ve had a hole in my soul for 45 years.

this knife is crazy…would be better if it was a little more skinny and easier to enter the body. nice idea though:)

You are all pyscho’s and i think you all should be hung!

My partner has one of these,I will be buying one of these for use in the field.
They do NOT come with a sheath and are not very sharp at all,but the blast killed a attacking dog in one stick and blast.Its a bit weird to stab and fire but with a bit of pratice it works well.

I AM A DEPUTY AND I COULD NOT FIND ONE THING I WOULD EVER NEED A KNIFE LIKE THE WASP TO USE ON.
IF I COULD NOT STOP A SUBJECT FROM KILLING ME WITH MY HANDS I HAVE A SIDE ARM THAT I AM VERY QULIFIED TO USE. AND WHEN THE S*#T HITS THE FAN AND I MUST USE A KNIFE I CARY A FIXED BLADE DAGGER ATTACHED TO MY BODY ARMOR. I HOPE NEVER TO HAVE TO USE MY GUN OR KNIFE BUT I COULD CERTAINLY SEE SOME DIRT BAG ATTEMPTING TO USE A WEAPON LIKE THIS ON A COP OR AN INNOCENT PERSON.

security, as in private military contractors, don’t deal with walmart shop-lifters…

I just mine from UPS. It’s a big knife with a very thick blade so it has the strength desipite tube running through it. It feels good in the hand but not balanced like a fighter or something. I popped in a CO2 powerlet (after removing the spent test one they ship in it) and you get about one really good blast then a few minor ones. I guess it would piss a shark off huh?
A great knife overall, well built and an awesome hangle (neoprene type.) I didn’t see a sheath anywhere when I opened it. It must be in there somewhere I can’t imagine someone making a knife like this and not making a sheath for it. Maybe they forgot mine…

If used, military only! As a tool to cut freaking wood or so. You can´t be serious :
“The WASP is IDEALLY suited for:
* Special Ops Troops (Land or Sea)” lol
That´s def not a weapon for a sec- guard or policemen (they are not able to use their tasers in a right way, DON´T give them such a tool!).
“There may be areas where firearms are not allowed. This would be a great weapon for those times.” Yeah, what areas? Something like a plane, where the sheriff may cause a painful, hellofamess-dead to a drunken passenger?
think before writing.
but the invention of a gas knife is quite cool, would like to play a while with such a thing.
July 29th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
This knife should be treated like a deadly firearm.
July 25th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
“It is silent when used” only when employed as a regular knife. In the videos it makes a great deal of noise when the mechanism is used.
July 24th, 2008 at 2:23 am
I wonder about the legality of this weapon for military use? Would not the ability to inject gas(a chemical)into a person possibly qualify this as a chemical weapon? If so it might be banned for military use under the Chemical Weapons Convention(CWC).
July 22nd, 2008 at 2:13 pm
Deadly Force, if justified, can be delivered by anyone. Remember we all have the right to defened ourselves. Police are after the fact! We dial 911 and the police respond. Very few times are they there when crime happens. There may be areas where firearms are not allowed. This would be a great weapon for those times. As the advertisement points out you could be facing man or beast. I think it is a great product.

This is an outstanding weapon, but ONLY for the military. If a member of the public is caught with one it should be a life sentance, simple as that. Security guard - are you for real ! Remember that when a 14 year old kid is grabbed for shoplifting, the “security guard” will be the one dealing with them..
July 20th, 2008 at 10:36 pm
Security Guards? Are you freaking serious? Military maybe. But a civilian security guard? Encouraging some to use a highly lethal weapon that not only is guaranteed to make one hell of a mess, but to cause mind shattering amounts of pain is reckless. And immoral. Yea, lets give some 9-5 guy a incentive to guarantee a kill. REAL classy there.
