Retro Cell Phone Stun Gun

For around $867 USD (7,000 Yuan) you could own a retro-styled cell phone with an integrated stun gun — called the “Shock Stick”. Flip the volume switch up and the top of the phone emits an electromagnetic wave that may be lethal. [Source]

Shocking Lie Detector

Simply place your hand on the mold, press the “analyzer” button, answer a few warm-up questions (name, gender, etc.) — to regulate readings — and this Shocking Lie Detector will take it from there. Powered by 3 x AAA batteries, it uses a sequence of five LEDs — green to red — to measure readings.

Hide this Shocking Lie Detector from your wife, or the next time she asks you where you were until 2am, that “I was working late Honey” is going to cost you all the feeling in your fingers.

World’s Most Shocking Knife

The Shock Knife delivers up to 7500 volts but less than 1 milliamp. Activated at the touch of a button, it has four different modes: “Low”, “Med”, “Hi”, and “X”. The Shock Knife is made from an ultradurable polycarbonate blend and features a no-slip handle to ensure maximum grippage.

Need training against a knife but don’t want to look like Zsasz from Batman? Use the Shocknife, which looks like a knife, hurts like a knife, but doesn’t cut your skin.
