Well, more than a couple.  There are pictures of Saddam and Rumsfeld 
shaking hands....

She doesn't have one either.  Only a sharp pointy thing.

It's a very nice sharp pointy thing - but not something that we want to, 
um, *stain* if we can avoid it - it is something of an antique.  WWII 
Japanese NCO Saber. :-)

A serious Toasting Iron and all I've got is a Swiss Army knife with an inch and
a half blade. It also has a nail file and a pair of scissors so I can give a
vicious manicure :)
Have at you!

I bet Gail has one too or Ken, do

Possibly.  We've also got a "show" katana, but the blade on that one 
isn't particularly sharp.  Still, if I were running after someone with 
that one, it still *looks* dangerous, and I no doubt could leave a nasty 
bruise at the very least.

But what I've been thinking about more recently is this:

the one I wanted any more)

IMO that goes against the concept of the quarter staff. It is peasant power :) a
hand crafted stick made from local hickory is a "sell it to anyone for a price"
joke. Sorry.
If you want a non weapon, weapon in your house keep a pepper pot handy.

Never trust a site that doesn't know the past tense of "forbid" ;-)
