Indeed.
Apart from small spanners & allen keys, can't see them doing much damage to the human body.
Think of the power tools lying around your place.
Drills, angle grinders, jigsaws etc.
Lethal in the wrong hands.

You been watching Hostel again?
 
I remember at uni making a case that I could kill someone with a roll up filter, people laughed but I knew. May have been stoned at the time.

I'm sure its in one of Ludlum's Jason Bourne's books that he kills someone with a rolled up chocolate bar or sweet wrapper.
 
How many leathal weapons are in there?#
Hammers, pliers, screwdrivers, big spanners, pipe grips, stanley knives.
What's in yours that could kill a man?

Nylon tie wraps Billy, never leave home without them.

My whole life is held together with the little fellas .....
....... we fix endless things on our mad holidays with them, use them to repair the van and in our 'games'.

My idea of 'courting', when I was younger, was a bottle of chloroform and a pocket of my little nylon friends ..... never failed <laugh>

On the dark side, the bigger ones are handy to restrain someone, if they're a little uppity, or to pull tightly round their necks if they get out of hand.

I'd recommend them to the board <ok>

No mate but if any of us was a copper we could nail a few on here I reckon.

Amongst the things in my garage, lies my old scouts knife.
I went and bought this myself when I was about ten, over 60 years ago.
Having a sheath knife strapped to your belt was part of the uniform then.
It's a bit smaller now due to sharpening, and it's mainly used for scraping dried paint off the screwdriver that I use as a stirrer.

I suppose I should hand it in, but nostalgia is a funny thing.
