How it works.
Damn your blade was faster than mine.
“A Hellfire missile that shoots knives ?”

“It slices, it dices!”
I prefer calling it the “Slap Chop” with apologies to Vince.
More winning?
Take that Obama you sorry loser.
Love this!!!!!
Totally Awesome!

Is that a Blade???

It is molding off the

Yeah but it leaves a real mess on the seats. On the other hand they can part out the rest of that Hyundai.
