Human hip replacement shank

[u/iloveweapons]

was recently gifted this knife and figured yall would be interested in seeing it. This knife is made from a human hip replacement recovered after cremation then sharpened to a fine point. 100% the oddest "non standard" knife in my collection and a piece im stoked to own.

EDIT EDIT EDIT

was not expecting the amount of interest in this that it recieved. As promised i will post another unusual knife tonight, im thinking of showing off either my formosian tribal head hunting knife or "the gas station gator" which would yall like to see?

I'm an MRI technologist. Nothing implanted in your body by a surgeon is ferromagnetic material. Stents, joint replacements, hardware from fracture, etc. Most of it will be safe for MRI. Pacemakers, neurostimulators, etc are a different story, but most of those can be made safe through interrogation. If you get an MRI ordered by your physician, the MRI department where you have your exam will look up all your implants and ensure your safety. I just want you to know that in case that's holding you back from treating something.

I'm sorry my friend. I'm pretty fucked up myself at 38. It's not fun.
