P.S. Is your Shift key broken?

Why would you assume I'm paranoid? Who are you to make such assumptions? What's your beef, stranger? What information do you base any of your outlandish preconceived notions on? I'm not sure I like your tone, friend. Who you callin' sensitive? Maybe I make your face sensitive! SHINK <- That's the sound of me unsheathing my full tang SOG Swedge!

Just kidding, pal. As a native Kansan, who travels a fair bit, I encounter a lot of negative stereotypes about Kansas. I'm just curious where it all comes from and if people actually have personal experiences to justify their opinions. Hopefully I can track down the offending Kansans and give 'em what-for so they stop giving the rest us a bad name.

So disappointing that with a world of possible items to sell, Woot decides to offer a giant knife with no practical use besides possibly injuring someone. Can't they just leave this for some "survivalist" site and stick with questionable electronics, wine and gadgets?

Yes - but not GOOD radar.

Except for the mini-guard, it looks a lot like the knife a certain sudsy bathroom product throws at a herder of grazing animals in a certain FPS game. Just for that, I'd buy it... But my wife figured out how to check the purchase history on my woot! So... No go.

*sigh* slow wootOff today...

okay, so next up, I need either a cheap-o tower (no mouse or keyboard) or a reasonably priced 50 something inch tv.

thanks!

Geeks need a way to defend themselves. Just think about it: you're coding, and then your boss walks in with your performance report, sees the knife, and walks right back out the door :D

Perfect for your upcoming Dexter watching parties!

And I thought it had to do with space travel. You learn something new everyday.

From the posts you've put on here, you may want to think about ritalin, if you want to keep him around.

"Big Orphaned Cetacea" really means "Bag of Cables (miscellaneous) and all the other junk we couldn't pawn off on the deal-thirsty Wootizens".

Something tells me you really won't die if you don't get a bag.

I'd probably jump on a decently priced 32-42" TV. I don't need anything massive though...

We'll all die with or without a Big o' Cosmos. To answer your question, you CAN buy a Big o' Cosmos for you 1st purchase, but it is frowned upon within the woot community because people who buy a lot feel like they deserve to get one more than nubes who have bought little to nothing. Scoring a bag is very competitive, so smack talk intended to break your spirit is to be expected.

3", giant, Sirius GPP!

The only gift better than an SOG for your loved one in the field is an axe. And that's a whole `nother level of badass to deal with.

i just paranoid android right on back so i dont care

Amazon: 4.75 inch blade, overall length 9.2 inches

Woot: 3.31 inch blade, overall 8.44

Which one is accurate?!

SOG's site has the same #'s as woot.

They had a 32" vizio, knowing woot, keep an eye out because it might come up again if you missed it. (and want it)

I'm looking to replace my husband's 32" vizio in his man-cave. Good tv (just too small for the space)

Woot updated their lights on woot-offs! Way to go! Looks good.

I agree...not being able to buy anything is like a dagger in my wallet.

Secunza wrote:uhm what "double edge" are you talking about?

all my currently ridiculous brain could think after i read this was: "MOBIUS KNIFE"

on another hand, perhaps its "full tang" refers to the colloquial use of the word swedge meaning ecstacy of all things?!

For 50 smackaroos I can get the Bear Grylls survival knife at the local big box sporting goods place and it comes with a fire starter!

carolinafan13 wrote:I like the unintentional pun in your comment. Good one!

What makes you think it was unintentional?

It's the 3% that have bought 3 that you need to worry about.

Something that can no longer be achieved, since Ol' Dirty Bastard went to the great shaolin temple in the sky.

But you don't need a knife to drink your own pee.

These will be great for the next Zombie invasion - in for three (six?)

No, if you order three, you get three - but you get to pick which model.
