The Art of the Shiv
  • MoFi shiv making contest! Rules: Only use the materials within arms reach as you read this.
  • I could make a helicopter with the materials within arms reach as I write this.
  • I have two sources of sharp broken glass shards. Are you sure you want to go through with this?
  • I am surrounded by office supplies and bits of computers. Let's do this thing mo'fo! See you in the shower block in 20.
  • It's all about the sharpened spoon.
  • A spork!?
  • No, a SPOON. S-P-O-O-O-O-N. Why a spoon, cousin?
  • [[[this is good]]]----------->
  • I could make a sandwich with the materials within arms reach as I write this. And have.
  • I worked in a military prison for a while. The old Leavenworth vets told me one of the more popular shivs was made by taking newspaper, wetting it and rolling it veeeeeerrrrrry tight, then let it dry. then doing this over and over again.apparently with some skill you can create a pretty dense piece of wood pulp that held a keen edge.
  • So, the pen IS the sword, eh?
  • *is disappointed DaShiv wasn't in here*
  • I worked for the parole board for a while and I was always fascinated by how ingenious prisoners can be. Interesting post. Now, off to make some pruno!
  • I have a firearm, knife, baton, several other interesting dangerous things within arms reach as I read this, so...I suppose I could carve a smaller knife out of the knife I have. If I sharpen the gun I could really give someone a nasty poke.
  • (those are some cool pics)
  • I have the razor-sharp edge of a manila envelope. Wanna paper cut?
  • Paper cuts scissors Scissors stab rock rock grinds paper
  • I have Sharpies and nail polish. Hmmm...
  • Paper cuts scissors Scissors stab rock rock grinds paper I prefer to rochambeau for it.
  • I have a pewter letter opener. It's like a ready-made shiv, so I win. I also have some crackers, which are sort of sharp.
  • I don't need no stinkin' shiv, I'm already sharp as a tack!
  • I'm on Smedleyman's side.
  • I have a phone and scotch tape. You're all dead meat.
  • Sharp, sharp as a tack I say!
