Guy's I am just messin around. I always joke with Mike that I am going to buy him one of those Pakistani swords that people sell on the side of the road. I also tell him to watch the dogs on the other side of the hog when he goes to stick one.

Whatever works.... Just make sure it's sharp. Biggest binds I have seen are people having to fight to get the knife in. Length does not help on a dull knife. A sharp knife, you just cut a gash, and slide in deeper.
