Link of the Day: Nanny State Strikes Again

[High Praise! to The Last Refuge]

Machetes Recalled Due to Laceration Hazard… Huh, wha.., wha’ the?…

I’m sure it’s just me, but I thought the picture of Bear Grylls on the package looked a little like Paul Ryan.

Gotta say I like the image of Paul Ryan wielding a machete – “Take THAT, bloated budget!”

  1. To be fair, the recall was voluntary because the blades were falling off.
    a guy cut himself but didn’t need stitches. Which obviously means he died instantly and stitches wouldn’t have done any good

  2. I have one of these and it broke after 10 or so hours of use. The knife has a bad design and inferior steel, simple as that. I’m getting it replaced at Gerber expense. Gerber is a good company and stands behind their products. My only complaint with them is most of there knives need serious sharpening after purchase.
