Amazon.com Review: Got an "ex" you'd like to vent your frustrations on? Take a stab at voodoo with this blade-pierced figurine. Depending on your point of view, the Ex set is either tasteless, entertaining, or therapeutic-and quite possibly, all three. While the sturdy ABS plastic figurine comes in a half-dozen color choices, including blood red and shocking pink, the five useful kitchen knives are the same for each: chef's, carving, utility, serrated bread, and paring. All are constructed of heavy-gauge stainless steel, with razor-sharp blades and hollow handles for lightweight comfort. After inserting the blades through the proper body parts (add your own sound effects), the included plastic sheaths should be slipped on the blades to protect children and the unsuspecting. The devilish brainchild of award-winning Italian designer Raffaele Iannello, the Ex stands 14-1/2 inches tall and is covered by a 25-year warranty, more than enough time to exorcise any lingering animosity.
