This item is in a catalogue that came through my mailbox.

I don't know what to make of it ~ but I wouldn't put it in my house. I just don't... no, it makes me a little bit nervous.


I just looked at that as it scanned through. It made me shudder.

The design was inspired by a voodoo doll.

It's a boy's toy, isn't it - for the flash guy that wants to look "hard". Very, um, cheap.

No, I don't like jokes about that sort of stuff either - particularly as my ex-h used to say he fantasised about (doing to me) as figure is experiencing in knifeblock - and tried to strangle me several times - butter wouldn't melt mummy's boy to the outside world - so I divorced him, and took half the house, and my romances since have never been very long-lasting, and I have no desire to shack up with a partner, as I can't go through all that again.

Love,

Xena

I think it's funny but I wouldn't put it in my house.

This knife holder is in the window of a kitchen shop in our local mall.

The first time I saw it, I couldn't believe that such a design existed. Then I couldn't believe the owners would put it in the window.

I couldn't tear my eyes away from it fast enough.

I agree with sunshine-lion - it's real bad chi. I felt a shudder run through my soul when I saw it.

I want to say I'd get it because I think it's a really interesting idea, and it looks like fairly good quality, but looking at it kinda gives me the heebie-jeebies. Feels like that tarot card the 10 swords. Except for the 5 part lol.

Sure I'd have it in my house! Only when my annoying relatives or neighbors come to visit though...mabe once they glance that they will want to leave quicker. It probably would be a good way to get rid of unwanted guests, just show them that lol

I am not opposed to art being graphic but this one looks like some sort of sick joke. Quite tasteless

I'd run if someone had that in their home.

I've seen *that* exact item in someone's house once! It sure was a talking point!
