| − | The Iraqi combat knife was pitted against the cane knife of Pol Pot. The two weapons were tested by charging into a room and eliminating two sides of beef targets; one static, one mounted on a zip-line. The combat knife killed both with a stabbing speed of 40mph while the cane knife had a speed of 45 mph, but failed to kill the second target. The edge was given to the combat knife due to it's flexibility and portability. |
