Over the years I have realized that guns are very cool and that the many kinds of guns that are made can lead to many an interesting discussion. However I have also found that quality knives can also be just as interesting. I'm sure some of you have knowledge in this area and for those that do not....behold the beauty of the Damascus Steel Knife.

Where do you load the rounds into that thing? :D

BTW, that really is a beautiful blade.

My question is: is it actually Damascus steel (made by hand-folding two different types of steel into thousands of tiny layers) or is it acid-etched to LOOK like Damascus steel? The difference is usually several hundred dollars on the price tag. :)

One thing is for sure...if I were you, I wouldn't buy it online. :D
