Description:
Tired of having aliens rush up right next to you, and then suddenly deploy their retractable claws, rendering your gun effectively useless? Tired of sprinting into a room, only to find that those blasted Rastals are using laser swords, and you have no defense? Tired of only being able to get one stab off at an opponent before they proceed to bite your limbs off with their mandibles?

We are too, which is why we've brought you the Pneumati-Knife.

The Pneumati-Knife is a very simple combination of two pre-space inventions: The ballistic knife, and the knife commonly used by undersea divers to ward off sharks and other fiendish deep-sea predators. Remarkably, when you compare space to an ocean, this knife does just about the same.

The Pneumati-Knife comes with a one meter blade, which means that it's certainly got a fair reach on it, but it's greatest abilities are the ability to launch the blade of your knife several feet away at a target, and the ability to instantaneously turn their organs to stew.

The Pneumati-knife has a spring-loaded launcher which can be activated with a simple button press, sending your knife hurtling towards your foe at speeds of sixty-two Mph! Try dodging that, Rastal!

The second feature is the inclusion of a pressured oxygen tank affixed to the back of the knife. Admittedly, this makes your blade a little heavier, but you'll quickly find that it's worthwhile. Once the tip of the knife has been pressed against a target, it retracts, allowing a direct passage for nearly eight-hundred Newtons of force. (180 pound-force)

With the Pneumati-Knife, you can help claim space for ourselves and all future generations. Be a hero, be a dragon!

And remember:

"You bring the gold, we bring the fire!"
