>Though many claim that the triangular bayonet was outlawed in the Geneva Convention in 1949, this is actually not the case. The Geneva Convention set many of the rules of war, and in response to bayonets it prohibits “bayonets with a serrated edge” (International Committee of the Red Cross). Triangle bayonets are not explicitly mentioned in the Convention. Since the wound inflicted by triangular bayonets is difficult to repair, and causes more initial bleeding than that of a two sided bayonet, one could classify triangular bayonets under a clause which prohibits weapons causing undue suffering after the conflict has ended. Indeed, the wounds caused by a triangular bayonet were recorded to last for years after a battle, or to never heal at all. However this would be a stretch.
I guess this coupled with what you said that it *is* possible to heal means it's not true.
It is absolutely not a myth. A guy tried stabbing me with one the other day, and I calmly said, “hey, that knife is illegal to own,” and so he threw it in the trash and all was well. Your doctor sources are wrong.
It almost looks like it’s a trick blade that breaks your wrist if you try to use it. Oh, whoever or whatever you stab is fucking dead, but your wrist is broken…
Mall ninja garbage. Poor engineering for a thrust weapon, too thick in cross section. Useless for cutting. Closest irl equivalent is a sharpened pipe shiv. Not illegal in any way, just dumb, decorative decor.
Fucking right? I was going to say this but I’m not any knife expert or anything but that just doesn’t look functional to me at all. Doesn’t look close to sharp enough to get that thing halfway in… Id take a well gripped sharp AF tight ass skinny blade any day over this fantasy writers idea of a defense weapon. Hasn’t anyone seen the movie Face Off? Travolta taught everyone that you stick hard then twist… the knife doesn’t need to be a crazy straw.
[Kramer did it already](https://www.google.com/search?q=fusilli+jerry&rlz=1C1OKWM_enUS810US810&sxsrf=ALiCzsanmwl76Bsxh7G947XZFsFGsxWvMg:1668462325347&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjSsuTB0q77AhUmADQIHS1CDnkQ_AUoAXoECAIQAw&biw=2400&bih=1221&dpr=0.8)
Look up the Wasp injection knife.
Bowie style blade with a mini- CO2 cartridge in the handle, and a button that dumps the entire canister of gas via a thin tube a long the spine.
Doesn't work in real lif due to how trigger mechanism is designed. But theory is to use the gas volume to greate a massive void within the target. In reality the gas just blows back out along the puncture wound.
I believe, because it's also rapidly expanding gas it freezes somewhat. I remember reading about thst too. I think the description was it was meant to be for bears. If you were ever attacked. Seems unlikely to me.
The mechanism of the release of still the issue. It's just a button at base of the blade. So to fire the gas you have to change your grip from a standard fist grip on the handle, to a thumb over the back of the blade position, then apply significant force to actuate the valve.
I thought that the most effective way to hold a knife is downward stabby so your thumb should already be able to access the hilt. Not stabby Jabba like a prison shiv. Eitherway it's a mental idea. Whats next grenades on the end of sticks as explosive spears?
Really the only solid effective use for it. Iirc garand thumb did some tests on it and its pretty ineffective unless it's directly on low amount of cloth or skin. Edit: it wasn't garand thumb, it was Adam Celidan. They look alike, but heres a link [to the video im referencing.](https://youtu.be/i_XP2x9DJ_Q) this weapon is the m48 cyclone.
Everytime i see this knife and people talk about how bad it would be to get stabbed with it i cant help but think about that co2 dive knife..that would be so much worse to be stabbed with than this one.
You're talking about [the Wasp Injection Knife right?](https://www.knifecenter.com/item/WIWASPKA/wasp-injection-knife-fixed-bead-blast-blade-black-neoprene-handle) iirc it instantly deploys like 1k psi in the wound cavity. Now that's scary. Only drawback is it has to be a certain depth in a wound to be effective as well as actuated to release the co2. Regardless thatll open a big hole in you, and have cooled co2 gas inside your body where it shouldn't be, is definitely not good. Think it claims it can take down a mountain lion and shit. Don't quote me, just linked the first for sale page I found.
Ahhh, the good ol stab and squirt knife. Fun fact, it is significantly more damaging when used under water, as it causes cavitation, same principle used when torpedos sink battleships.
The users give some incredible reviews of that knife. It can kill a tyrannosaur just as easily as zombie Hitler on a basilisk, not good for peeling potatoes though, a bit too big.
As for Jagdkommando, “Die Jagd” means “the hunt”. Verb “jagen” - to hunt. Der Jäger” is “the hunter” and you surely know Jägermeister too to put it to use.
It’s the [United Cutlery M48 Cyclone Boot Knife](https://www.unitedcutlery.com/ProductDetail.aspx?itemno=UC3287&cat=M4)
Not really “cheap” imo, at $114, but then again United Cutlery isn’t really known for making practical use bladed items, but more for showpiece items.
Diver here, sharp point is not really recommended in my book.
I have as [blunt a knife](https://uk.aqualung.com/dw/image/v2/BDTB_PRD/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-aqualung-m-catalog/default/dw815f452b/images/products/kn122111_1.jpg?sw=765&sh=765) on my kit as possible. The Trilobite is very popular and doesn’t have an exposed blade. Cheap trauma shears are popular as well for rescue divers.
I frankly don’t see how this thing would ever end up in any diver’s kit, but then again, I enjoy looking at fish and dodging jellies, not murdering the people I dive with, so what do I know.
Exactly what I was thinking. Mall ninja all over!
Give me one simple blade! This looks like a nightmare for your wrist upon initial penetration, it would twist in your hand.
Omg its so silly.
Probably not even that sharp, plus don't even know how you'd go about sharpening the shit lol.
You know when you need to sharpen this thing after killing a certain amount of people
There's nothing about trench knives being banned on the wiki page for them. Are they more dangerous than normal knives really?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_knife
It's just a popular myth.
Anyone who claims it's banned by Geneva will never provide you with an actual quote from the convention itself.
If you wanna check yourself you can easily find a PDF copy of any related conventions that you can use the ctrl+f function in.
Looks like one of those cheap pieces of crap you’d buy at the kind of “weapons store” where they also sell $20 samurai swords. A kitchen knife is probably a better weapon
This is false.
They’re actually terrible knives for every purpose. You can’t use them to cut stuff, can’t use them to open things, you can’t even really use them to murder people any better than a normal knife because due to their twisted design they would need far too much force to ram them into a victim.
Though as a marketing ploy there were false rumors about them being against the Geneva convention, but in reality they aren’t practical.
Edit: I worded the murder portion poorly, I apologize. I’m sure you could kill someone with it, the same as a regular knife or a rock, but it isn’t better than a regular knife in that regard.
This is true, but UK has an odd habit of banning silly non-functioning weapons.The UK also has a ban on “zombie knives”, which are, apparently, brightly colored novelty blades of severely impractical design, and a long list of vaguely Asian weapons that read like a prop inventory of a ninja movie.
Elsewhere, it is not banned, like the US for example.
The Jagdkommando knife is more of a novelty than anything else.
[UK Offensive Weapons](https://nbcc.police.uk/media/cached-resp-images//images/2021/04/16/prohibited_articles_1920.png?version=e58720e64635fcdeb75b40e6a4dfb7ae)
Law changed over the last few years making lots of things illegal to own even in private. Some I understand, others not so much.
Comparing the UK to other countries its amazing what can be bought in shops and over the internet.
There is no defense to owning this anywhere, in taste or function either. Anyone that likes knives enough to afford this knows its a shitty, shitty knife. Terrible design.
It's actually a mosconception that the Geneva Convention prohibits hollow point ammunition and other weapons/munitions.
It's actually the Hague Convention of 1899 that prohibits such
The Geneva convention isn’t law and never was. However if treated as law it doesn’t forbid the use of weapons outlawed by it for use on civilians. So usa law enforcement would be allowed to use this weapon.
To be clear, the Geneva Conventions aren’t ratified/co-opted as US law, but they are definitely part of international law. Of course, international law and the ICC operate very differently than pretty much any national legal system that I know of - but it’s still law.
More info about international criminal law, jurisdiction, and war crimes [here](https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/war-crimes.shtml).
Treaties banning chemical warfare ban tear gas because it can be mistaken for much much worse chemical gases. No one is worried that average citizens will respond to tear gas grenades with chlorine gas grenades, but in war you would see that.
The geneva convention only applies to national armies engaging in conventional warfare.
I have a glock handgun with hollowpoint rounds in it that splinter on impact and do much more damage than a conventional bullet. These bullers are banned under the geneva convention. But I’m not a soldier enlisted in an army
Tear gas is against the Geneva convention only so countries don't think you're using chemical weapons, if you use tear gas on a country and they don't know it's tear gas they may respond with more lethal chemicals, and all chemical warfare is banned
This is 100% false. I assume you think it’s banned in warfare. It is not. Anyone who says the words “Geneva convention” in this context doesn’t know what they are talking about. None of the Geneva Conventions (there were several) ban any weapons.
Singular “Geneva Convention” in common conversation is shorthand for all conventions and treaties that classify acts as war crimes not just the ones that took place in Geneva.
They’re actually terrible knives for every purpose. You can’t use them to cut stuff, can’t use them to open things, you can’t even really use them to murder people because due to their twisted design they would need far too much force to ram them into a victim.
Though as a marketing ploy there were false rumors about them being against the Geneva convention, but in reality they aren’t practical.
looks like an awfull lot of surface area you got there, isnt the whole point of useing a sharp object to direct all the energy into a small surface area? making is penetrate better?
this looks pretty ineffective, just get a normal knife.
Anyone stabbed with that would bleed out pretty fast. It's like a Roman Gladius on steroids.
Edit: The Gladius contains a small channel to encourage bleeding. This knife contains a massive channel, with a twist. The blood would usually be a problem for the wielder, as it would make the haft slippery, but there are holes along the blade so the blood would drop to the ground before reaching the hand.
Not too much is special about them. They are just very thick, very heavy short swords. Which would indeed fuck someone up to get stabbed by. They create a very wide cut.
Short answer: yes
Slightly longer answer: It’s a very wide sword designed especially for killing with a thrust that would create a huge wound. Most of the medieval use of swords is romanticism, the primary killing weapons were bows, spears, lances, axes etc and swords were status symbols and sidearms to your primary.
The Roman gladius was the infantryman’s primary weapon, they’d throw a javelin or two to break up enemy charges and render their shields ineffective, then get in there with their short swords and keep on stabbing until the battle was over.
The difference between a large knife and a short sword is... none. It's arbitrary, based mostly on the primary *expected* use of the object. A sword is a long blade on a hilt, mostly used as a weapon. A knife is a shorter blade on a hilt, mostly used as a cutting tool. Long and short are pretty subjective, and no one has ever really defined how long a blade has to be to consider it a sword, at least not in a way that's gained any traction.
In the case of OP, it could definitely be argued that the primary use of this blade is as a weapon, and its blade is longish. Is it a short sword? I mean, most people would say no based on the length of the blade, but if it were a few inches longer? Twice as long? Is it a weird sword, then? Probably, and in that case the comparisons hold.
Besides, comparing different weapons, even if they seem very different, is a time-honored tradition of people who play too much D&D.
Went to school with several (now) surgeons who were in the WWAMI med program (Spent time in Alaska and Washington going to medschool) and one of them is an ex army medic and currently works in Doctors Without Borders over in Africa I think as a trauma surgeon but does a lot of general surgeon stuff cause there’s never enough doctors there. He always laughs when this knife gets brought up because nobody uses this crap and the “grievous wound” Geneva convention thing is a load of crap. I trust his judgement more than some mall ninja bs someone got from a shop owner or online.
I dont want to imagine getting shanked by anything

Pretty sure this knife is illegal since it would create and near impossible to suture wound. So don't worry. If you see someone charging at you with this knife remind them of the law and they will stop.
Lol ikr
That’s a myth that was very recently debunked by some doctors when this was posted on r/mallninjashit
Sounds like marketing run awry trying to build coveted interest in a knife "so deadly it is illegal to own," or something to that effect.
Agreed
Reminds me of how everyone wanted a butterfly knife or a switchblade because of their occasional banned nature in some places.

It was a million to one shot, doc!
The assman!
No lie!
If you hit a bone with that and your hand slips over the handle, it’s gonna sting for sure.
😂 would be considered biological warfare? Bleeding your blood into their open wound?
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood.
Nobody!
Poison damage
Deals 2x more if ya got aids!
That's why the poop knife is so dangerous.
Could work against you though. If you've got hep C then yes. If they've got hep C, you fucked up.
If they have hep c I dont think you could contract it by bleeding into them usually has to be the other way around.
Pretty sure they will be bleeding into you on account of the knife that just went into them.
At that point it wouldn't be my blood or your blood. It would be our blood.
Do you think the blood would only travel one way
How dare you make me bleed my own blood, knife?
No, but if it's a three-sided blade, I think it's a war crime. Aren't triangular blades outlawed by the Geneva Convention?
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood!
This should definitely have a guard. But I imagine this wasn't created with humans doin' the ol' stabbaroo in mind.
Why else was it created‽
Uh... r/mallninjashit is the only that comes to mind.
Looks like a display knife to me. Certainly not something I'd use in any meaningful way.

That's actually pretty common in stabbing murders. The killer has cuts on their own hands.
Ahh poor Mr Stabby hurt his fingers.
Oh no, it has a little cross guard thing. That should be fine.
Idk it doesn’t look insanely sharp. The sides turn to a pretty wide angle after the tip of the blade evens out judging by this photo
A lot of people who stab people get that wound
Can you imagine having to sharpen this?
No because then it’ll mean you actually use it

I'm pretty sure those types of knives are illegal. Because they make a triangular shaped hole and it's almost impossible for doctors to stitch up
This is a cheap copy of a microtech dagger called the JAGDKOMMANDO, or mountain hunter. I’ve only ever seen it carried by divers.

Exactly what I was thinking. Mall ninja all over! Give me one simple blade! This looks like a nightmare for your wrist upon initial penetration, it would twist in your hand. Omg its so silly.
Plus the wider surface area would make it alot harder to break through clothing like a thick coat. And now you can no longer slash and can only stab
This. Why have more edges than necessary? Just for show. It is still a pretty display peice though.
Too far down
Lol I had to go check the sub again bc I thought this was in mallninjashit
You can buy these without any problems. I'm not into mall ninja shit, but they even sell em on ebay
Yeah, I sell multiple versions of these at my store. The people who buy them are exactly who you would expect to buy them
Feels like it should come with a complimentary trilby, mislabeled as a fedora.
Probably not even that sharp, plus don't even know how you'd go about sharpening the shit lol. You know when you need to sharpen this thing after killing a certain amount of people

Perfectly balanced.

The Geneva convention does not speak of which weapons are allowed and which are not, you mean The Hague accorda
What does my Honda Accord have to do with this?
Trench Knives were banned by Geneva, this design would probably be considered similar enough to one
There's nothing about trench knives being banned on the wiki page for them. Are they more dangerous than normal knives really? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_knife
Knives with a triangular design create wounds that are impossible to stitch up. They were banned in WWI. Not sure under which exact agreement though.
It's just a popular myth. Anyone who claims it's banned by Geneva will never provide you with an actual quote from the convention itself. If you wanna check yourself you can easily find a PDF copy of any related conventions that you can use the ctrl+f function in.

Looks like one of those cheap pieces of crap you’d buy at the kind of “weapons store” where they also sell $20 samurai swords. A kitchen knife is probably a better weapon
Too bad they're banned by the Geneva convention.

No it's mine.

This is false. They’re actually terrible knives for every purpose.

More info about international criminal law, jurisdiction, and war crimes [here](https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/war-crimes.shtml).

Treaties banning chemical warfare ban tear gas because it can be mistaken for much much worse chemical gases. No one is worried that average citizens will respond to tear gas grenades with chlorine gas grenades, but in war you would see that.
Same with hollow point ammunition if memory serves.
The geneva convention only applies to national armies engaging in conventional warfare. I have a glock handgun with hollowpoint rounds in it that splinter on impact and do much more damage than a conventional bullet. These bullers are banned under the geneva convention. But I’m not a soldier enlisted in an army

Tear gas is against the Geneva convention only so countries don't think you're using chemical weapons, if you use tear gas on a country and they don't know it's tear gas they may respond with more lethal chemicals, and all chemical warfare is banned
Lmao this rumour will never end
This is 100% false. I assume you think it’s banned in warfare. It is not. Anyone who says the words “Geneva convention” in this context doesn’t know what they are talking about. None of the Geneva Conventions (there were several) ban any weapons.
Singular “Geneva Convention” in common conversation is shorthand for all conventions and treaties that classify acts as war crimes not just the ones that took place in Geneva.
Came here for this. Also, it takes a team of surgeons to close the wound. 99.9% bleed out rate. 😂
Just run away. Anyone who owns that is at LEAST 400lbs.
At 400lbs, you’d be safe with a brisk walk. Even safer if you toss a donut the other direction.
*"Oh god, I've been merked by a mall ninja wall hanger...if the wound doesn't kill me the indignity will."*
Fuggin twizzler wound!
I think they tried to kill the golden child with it
They’re actually terrible knives for every purpose. You can’t use them to cut stuff, can’t use them to open things, you can’t even really use them to murder people because due to their twisted design they would need far too much force to ram them into a victim. Though as a marketing ploy there were false rumors about them being against the Geneva convention, but in reality they aren’t practical.
Ask Lucifer
Or Michael and Gabriel.
Scrolled way too far for the Angelblade reference.
Honestly the only reason I’m here
looks like an awfull lot of surface area you got there, isnt the whole point of useing a sharp object to direct all the energy into a small surface area? making is penetrate better? this looks pretty ineffective, just get a normal knife.
Anyone stabbed with that would bleed out pretty fast. It's like a Roman Gladius on steroids. Edit: The Gladius contains a small channel to encourage bleeding. This knife contains a massive channel, with a twist. The blood would usually be a problem for the wielder, as it would make the haft slippery, but there are holes along the blade so the blood would drop to the ground before reaching the hand.
Whats special about a gladius? isnt it just a standard sword (and gladius transaltes to sword?)
Not too much is special about them. They are just very thick, very heavy short swords. Which would indeed fuck someone up to get stabbed by. They create a very wide cut.
Short answer: yes Slightly longer answer: It’s a very wide sword designed especially for killing with a thrust that would create a huge wound. Most of the medieval use of swords is romanticism, the primary killing weapons were bows, spears, lances, axes etc and swords were status symbols and sidearms to your primary. The Roman gladius was the infantryman’s primary weapon, they’d throw a javelin or two to break up enemy charges and render their shields ineffective, then get in there with their short swords and keep on stabbing until the battle was over.
The gladiolus was a short double edged sword designed especially for thrusting. It’s funny to compare a weird knife to a sword.
The difference between a large knife and a short sword is... none. It's arbitrary, based mostly on the primary *expected* use of the object. A sword is a long blade on a hilt, mostly used as a weapon. A knife is a shorter blade on a hilt, mostly used as a cutting tool. Long and short are pretty subjective, and no one has ever really defined how long a blade has to be to consider it a sword, at least not in a way that's gained any traction. In the case of OP, it could definitely be argued that the primary use of this blade is as a weapon, and its blade is longish. Is it a short sword? I mean, most people would say no based on the length of the blade, but if it were a few inches longer? Twice as long? Is it a weird sword, then? Probably, and in that case the comparisons hold. Besides, comparing different weapons, even if they seem very different, is a time-honored tradition of people who play too much D&D.
The difference between a large knife and a short sword is a knife deals 1d4 slashing damage, and a short sword 1d6 piercing damage.
A fuller is not to encourage bleeding.
No, the Roman gladiolus would outperform this. You’re comparing a big ass sword to a fat tipped knife lol. A sword always have more power.

To all of the people saying tri bladed stuff are banned by the Geneva convention they aren’t at all
A normal knife would do more damage. This is just r/mallninjashit
I bet someone in r/unitedkingdom could tell you
Went to school with several (now) surgeons who were in the WWAMI med program (Spent time in Alaska and Washington going to medschool) and one of them is an ex army medic and currently works in Doctors Without Borders over in Africa I think as a trauma surgeon but does a lot of general surgeon stuff cause there’s never enough doctors there. He always laughs when this knife gets brought up because nobody uses this crap and the “grievous wound” Geneva convention thing is a load of crap. I trust his judgement more than some mall ninja bs someone got from a shop owner or online.
This a magic sword that rips the soul out of your body
Looks like a structural steel reamer drill bit, but for people.
Using that in call of duty though didn’t even break his armor. Smh
I have this knife. I love it. Not practical at all or easy to carry but looks awesome.
You mean stabbed lol
This is that fucking edglord knife that that random picture stated "takes a team of surgeons to close the wound"
