Is it sharp? If you drop it, don't catch it. I saw a video on YouTube the other day where some chick was showing off a katana she bought on a livestream and it started to slip out of the scabbard and she reflexively caught it by the blade and severed multiple tendons in her hand.

It's not sharp. But WTF even reflexively catches something by the blade. I'd assume your 1st reaction would be to jump away/back up as it fell.

Way back when I was still in the field, our light fixtures AND panel cans had extremely sharp metal edges. I always told peeps if you lose your grip just let it fall. We had one kid that didn't listen and even with jersey gloves (the cheap cloth kind that are dark brown) he severed ligaments in his thumb so bad he had to have a bunch of surgeries. Let's put electricity in sharp metal boxes, yeah that makes sense!

After snagging this, my collection from when I was 15 is complete for the Saturn. Gonna be taking a breather scouring for Saturn games - it's a rabbit hole and it will bankrupt me, lol

Just bought new tires and AC set up for my Nissan. It cost me 5k. So instead of buying the end game audio set up for my new speakers I bought something to tide me over.

Got a CD player.

Got a amp/speaker switcher so I can run this next to my AVR to try out.
