Brass Knuckle Sandwich with Your Slice?

WIlliamsburg sucks. I feel sorry for the people that live there and for the people that decide to move there.

that pizza sucks

Who gives a shit? Are there really people out there who would call the cops about something like this? Really?

Balisongs take a lot of practice to be able open flashily.

However most douches don't practice nearly enough and almost always end up slicing their fingers. Which is a good thing.

It also helps that they're actually impractical to open/use quickly.

Why they're banned, I have no idea.

If you REALLY want/need to carry a folding knife, carry a "Waved" Emerson, like their Karambit.

On the books, the main reason gravity knives/balisongs/butterfly knives are illegal is because there is no lock to hold the blade in place when the knife is open. That's the 'Public Safety' reason they were banned.

And they're not hard to open quickly, if you know how to use them properly - and proper does not mean flashy.

fucking NARCs...

Every other post is "wahhh, hipsters white-ifying the neighborhood, wahh."

and now here's a joint that seems to be pretty close to the "old New York" that everyone misses, and people wanna hate on that.

tell your "reader" to park her stroller outside some other pizza joint if she doesn't like it.

Hahaha omg that's so true.

On Chicagoist, there's a profile of a hot dog joint on the West Side where the grill staff carry guns.

actually they're all tools of the trade in pizza making, pepperoni slicing and dough making. can not take a man's livelihood away.

Nothing better than a slice made with brass knuckle-pounded dough.

The snitching claim is silly. If Eden Pizza didn't want anyone to know about the weapons they wouldn't have them in plain sight.

Having a weapon to "protect yourself" isn't going to guarantee your safety. In fact many people are injured or killed with their own blade. More weapons on the street isn't the answer.

And to those saying "snitch," please. What they're selling is the lowest quality overseas garbage. Despite them being pieces of junk, the fact remains that they still function as lethal weapons. They deserve to be clipped. Read up on NYC weapons laws before spouting nonsense. Brass knuckles are banned entirely in the state of NY.

@ganghiscon, true most of them look under 4" but Balisongs are illegal to carry period. If you bought it and got pinched on the way home, you'd need your lawyer.

"Having a weapon to "protect yourself" isn't going to guarantee your safety. In fact many people are injured or killed with their own blade."

Having a weapon (and even better, being trained with it) are better than trusting some scumb*g who "promises" not to hurt you in exchange for your money or raping you...

"More weapons on the street isn't the answer."

Yeah, lets sing kumbaya and surrender to the criminals while Bloomie and his friends either have armed guards or are "legally" strapped.

Uh, why would you want to carry a weapon?

'CAUSE I CAN"T CARRY A COP.

Read about the REAL Nation of Cowards...

Apparently I needed to include this disclaimer.

Read my post knowing that: I am a martial arts expert and extensively trained in edged combat, I am a knife collector and always carry, I am a firm believer in personal safety and increasing awareness of the overly-restrictive knife laws in the city.

That you would assume I am an ignorant, weapon-loathing sheeple speaks volumes. Not everyone is a zealot and a radical. I am already familiar with the article you linked to. I was sharing a sliver of a point of view that I don't often share and you didn't even consider that.

Someone is also a p***y, geez.

someone is a snitch

Nice!

what kind of tight pants, hipster gang activity is going on over there?

None. It's strollersville now

Do they have a 007 knife?

I wish I still had mine, It may be youthful exuberance but I swear the 7 meant the blade was 7 ins.

friend got caught when it dropped out of his pants.

other stuff that's illegal, expandable batons.

until you get a dead fish sent to you in a box, you're safe.

The reader was pissed off to see weapons for sale? Shouldn't he/she be pissed off enough to buy the weapons to protect him/herself from local gang activity or is the reader just a big, fat wuss?

tattle tail jen carlson saves williamsburg once again!

Ok, how's the pizza???

I hear the slices fold easier than the knives.

Not too good. But for $1.25 it's worth not being hungry

Stop Snitching

Put a sock in it, loser

+1

they got any of those little metal hash pipes that get really hot if you try to use them?

As odd as it is to sell knives in a pizzeria, those all look plenty small enough to be legal.

Cool!

this weaponary is not new, but it comes and goes. and if it's illegal, the NYPD doesn't care because they are constantly parked out front and dropping in for slices. in fact, i've been in there with both cops and knives and the cops were just shooting the breeze with the counter guy.

also, my girlfriend started talking one of the dudes in there about the blades and he got excited. i mean, really excited...

not that kind of excited.

Those slices are HORRIFIC. Like eating cardboard.

those "brass knuckles" are novelty items, they're usually marked "paperweights".

hah hah. paperweights until, y'know, the jets all buy them and mash them into the faces of the sharks.

Brass knucks and a slice? I'm there.

I know! This is so badass.

Maybe they just want people to know not to fuck with them.

I've eaten here a bazillion times. This weaponry is new within the past few months and I've always wondered if it was legal.....
