Shark Attack Equalizer
With Wasp’s wicked CO2-injecting blade, instant death to your adversary is only the touch of a button away!
In the past few years many have wondered if we have reached the apex of knife design. We have seen new materials being used in knife construction and there have been many new locking mechanisms for folding knives. On the other hand, the basic designs of fixed blade knives have not radically changed in eons. Please don’t take me wrong. Several new knives have come on the market that can only be deemed as outstanding. However, most of them are new combinations of a known handle style with a known blade pattern.
You can sit back and relax; the idea that knife designs have become stagnant is about to be blown away, literally. A new knife, the WASP, is now being manufactured by WASP Injection Systems, Inc., and is marketed as a “Compressed Gas Injection Knife.” Unless you’ve seen their advertisements, you are probably wondering what in the world I’m talking about. It’s really rather straightforward; the WASP has a CO2 cartridge inserted into its handle and an exhaust port near the tip of the blade. Thrust the blade into an object, push the release button and you inject a charge of CO2 gas. Tactical Knives’ editor was the first to tell me about this knife. My first reaction was to wonder about the purpose of the design? After all, I’m a former engineer and designed the TOPS Harpoon. If anyone should take a serious look at the design, it should be me.
