The cord bit on the Addi Turbos looks rather more like steel cable than a simple bit of nylon -- and my trusty #7's have nice, long, similarly steel pointy bits.

A wooden pair of #15's is a handy stake for any Slayer/knitters there might ever have been.

But... really... Addi turbos should be considered a deadly weapon by the idjits who confiscate corkscrews.
