Shiv #66 of 365 - Toothcutter

Shiv #66 - Toothcutter

I was really looking forward to posting this one, since this marks the official point where I have less than 300 shivs left to make. But then I got sick and I didn't care much.

9 out of 10 dentists agree that this is the worst toothbrush ever.

Shiv #65 of 365 - Remote Control Bayonet

Shiv #65 - Remote Control Bayonet

I've wanted to do this shiv pretty much since the first week of the Shiv365 project.

Shiv #64 of 365 - Big Nail

Shiv #64 - Big Nail

This is a pretty fierce nail. Sometimes, a pretty fierce nail is what's needed.

Shiv #63 of 365 - Buddha's Fangs

Shiv #63 - Buddha's Fangs

I've been sick this past week and found it difficult to commit myself to playing with power tools or breathe normally, so this is back-dated to Sunday, October 25th's shiv.

What are the two most useless things in the world?

The Pope's testicles.

Fangs on the Buddha are pretty close, though.

Shiv #62 of 365 - Know What a File Is

Shiv #62 - Know What a File Is

You know what a file is?

And you know what wittles is?

You bring me, to-morrow morning early, that file and them wittles.

Shiv #61 of 365 - Unsafety Scissor #2

Shiv #62 - Unsafety Scissor #2

Part two of the broken scissors.

I made this with a lot of scrap bits, which is why it has four or five different twist ties, a barely useful length of a dowel rod, and three kinds of string holding it together.

Shiv #60 of 365 - Toofbruss

Shiv #60 - Toofbruss

Sharpened toofbruss.

Shiv #59 of 365 - Thingy #1

Shiv #59 - Thingy #1

I dunno what this is.

In other news, I was really busy this week and didn't have time to post all these.

BETR L8 THAN NEV0R

Shiv #58 of 365 - Shivasaw

Shiv #58 - Shivasaw

Reciprocating saw blade, sharpened on the other edge.

Also note my filthy work table.

(It's really a protective plywood panel on top of a table I don't want to screw up too bad, but that's plenty "work table" enough for me.)

Shiv #57 of 365 - Five-Spike

Shiv #57 - Five-Spike

I've made a few filthydirty shivs so far, but this is probably the new king of filthynasty.

That's five nasty pokes for the price of one.

Shiv #56 of 365 - Polly Pocket Knife

Shiv #56 - Polly Pocket Knife


This is the sort of thing that, to me, is simply intuitive.

Also note the bonus shiv; she's holding her own wee poker!

(As if it needed to be said, I have no affiliation with whoever it is that owns and/or produces Polly Pocket.)
