Sadly enough, unless you hit it right in the eye, your knife wont get enough underwater velocity to penetrate the sharks skin. :boohoo:

If the shark is comin at me, that is velocity. Add to that the adrenaline rush and you have penetration.

Makes you wonder how quickly lived the adrenaline rush is that Kings must possess right before the sharks snack on them at the pier pylons.
After watching the speed and aggression at which those sharks rip through the flesh of Macks, I would be terrified if I saw one coming to attack me--if I saw it at all. I might just have a heart attack. LOL
I am with you, though. If I got half a chance, and have a knife in hand, I would certainly give it a shot. Never know, might get lucky, hah!

Two places on earth I would never swim: Australia and South Africa. That's where humans are too far down the food chain.
