Why do you need such a big knife? Not that I don't like big knives...

i think ststch means attach since the "A" and "S" keys are next to each and for a fast typer or inaccurate typer this could have happened

[daninja]

Stsch? Thats not a word nor could it be a word because there are no vowels!

[Colonel88]

what about WTF? and yes it is a word. Just look on Urban Dictionary. :D

One of my teachers (and closest friends) taught me how to make one of these. As it turns out, students of the 50s, like him, used these to fire matches and toothpicks (I use toothpicks) and it's a lot of fun lawl

nice i learned it from my cousins dad in childrens church when i was 6! but thats awsome

[fighterpilot1]

i was expecting more, i was expecting quite a bit more.

[mitul117]

[crazyman1221]

Dude I have no clue on how fire the dang thing. You video was to dark so I couldn't see what you were doing!!!

[clayo]

ok ill tell you when you are done you take the other side of the closepin than push the metal part with no curl back to the little ditch i ingraved in the ditch so it wouldn't come out then you pull the bottum like a gun trigger i hope this helps if not mabe i could make another video

[drummonkey92]

this is cool, but the idea has been done before in different shapes n sizes using that firing mechanism. nice tho

[clayo]

yeah I know its been done but I did it like along time ago my cousin should me win I was like 8
