Available in "Classic" or "Antique"....
It would be great for a Halloween party or Murder Mystery event....
You can come up with a cheap alternate version with a pair of pliers and some mismatched dinnerware.

from the site:
a truly disturbing place setting
the slash of a knife, the cut of a saw, dismemberment, burning and along with the unifying hypodermic needle puncture, this place setting truly reflects the activities of Dexter: all are victims in this highly collectible (and usable!) flatware. Each piece is hand crafted and each setting has it\'s own character - numbered and initialed.

the details:
5 piece place classic silver plated setting - engraved
knife, fork, salad/desert fork, spoon, coffee/desert spoon

there are 3 different styles:
antique - $500/place setting
classic - $450/place setting
modern - $400/place setting

Sea-Scope

2 people recommended this item

Description

Ooh... I wonder if you could spot a mermaid....

From HearthSong: "Our product testers LOVED Sea-Scope" - it opened up wonderful new worlds for them to explore. Not only could they solve the big mystery of what lies beneath the surface of the water, they could magnify spiders from a safe distance of 4-5 feet and faraway objects like birds with equal clarity.

And that's not all - a temperature strip and ruler helped document discoveries made by scientific observation, and the attachable underwater Aqua LightTM flashlight improved visibility when the water was murky. Aqua Light takes two AA batteries (not included).

Totally engrossing for budding scientists ages 6 and up."

GeoCane GPS Walking Stick

First to recommend

Description

Another amazing concept design from the Yanko Site:

Trod the Untrodden Path! GeoCane and Upward!

Presenting the best way to get lost in a walking stick. The GeoCane by Felix Hardmood Beck takes the idea of a divining rod and finds you some great adventure in the great hiking pilgrimage. Stamping the ground creates a path that noone else has followed, creating a unique experience for you, the final and last one true highlander.

Designer Felix Hardmood Beck puts it like this: “The goal of this project was to translate the central aspects and values of the pilgrimage into a digital object – a new interpretation of the traditional walking-cane: The GeoCane. This new cane shows various references to the historic and modern pilgrimage, as well as historic and modern forms of navigation. By using the GeoCane, the user receives a new understanding of the historic identity of pilgrimage.

“Geographical coordinates for a specific goal are loaded onto the GeoCane through a docking-station. Throughout the Neo-Pilgrimage an integrated microchip traces the chosen path, so that you are never guided on an already known road. By a slight vibration at grasping hight, the cane leads the way for the user. The place of destination remains unknown for the user and is not of such great importance as the path in itself.”

Heigh Ho!

"Oasis" Air Purifier/ Water Purifier/ Humidifier

First to recommend

Description

Another amazing concept design from the Yanko Site:

An Urban Oasis

OASIS is a water purifier, air purifier, and humidifier all in one. The idea loosely biomimics how nature cleans, recycles, and balances air and water. Water is naturally filtered into clean drinking water. Whatever you don’t drink is given to the plant which in turn cleans the air and balances humidity. The concept is a bit esoteric but if you break it down to its simplest form, it’s quite clever.

Nahamer T450 Sustainable Toaster

3 people recommended this item

Description

The first sustainable toaster on the market. I never knew I'd be considering my carbon footprint even while shopping for toasters! This baby is 20% faster than average toasters - yet uses half the energy thanks to it's close proximity-low temp combo of toast mastering. It also has a see-thru window so you can closely monitor the browning going on, and it drops your toast directly onto your plate underneath. No more fishing for toast! Yay! Also designed to be disassembled and recycled when it's toasting days are done.
