This gut-busting, jaw-breaking weapon has two hooks for your plastic bag and engraved characters that scream “Don’t mess with me.” We have no idea where you can buy the knuckles, but they would be great for that male shopper looking for some extra machismo. Short of finding them in a seedy Chinatown shop, any Etsy members want to take a stab at developing a pair? [GadgetReview]

Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 4:20 PMA knuckle duster is not a fashion accessory its something people can use to *bash* in the heads of other people. Of course carrying one in the street should be illegal, and not just in Australia.

Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 4:15 PMWhy would it be classified as a weapon though? It’s just a bag holder.
