Shun Ken Onion Elite 7-in Santoku Knife
Saturday, October 20, 2012
“You are a ninja, young man! You have a code of honor!”
“And yet, I am sworn to destroy Master Von Santoku, the monster who killed my father!”
“You’ll never survive Ninja Court, my child. As your lawyer, I… um… Honor, what’s the line again?”
“CUT!” James yelled in the sort of passionate fury that only a star slash director can ever fully appreciate. Byron shrugged dispassionately as Honor hurried over, flipping the pages of the script.
“The line is ‘As your lawyer, I think you should take this!’ and then you hand him the Shun Elite 7″ Santoku Knife.”
Byron shook his head. “James, I don’t see it. The Shun Elite 7″ Santoku Knife isn’t the sort of knife you use when you’re fighting ninja. It’s the sort of knife you use for chopping vegetables or meat.”
James let out a slow exhale that wasn’t at all as intimidating as he’d intended for it to be. Then he leaned in close to Byron.
“Byron. Byron. Byron. You’re right, of course. The Shun Elite 7″ Santoku Knife is the kind of knife you use in the kitchen. I got it from my mother. It’s great. She loves it. It’s the sort of knife any chef would enjoy. But that’s what makes this moment so real. My ninja character is getting the sword from you, his lawyer. He’s going to go out there and defeat evil. Anyone could do it, right? This is a movie that the masses can embrace.”
Byron was not convinced, and it showed. James punched the air in a fury.
“Byron! Byron! Okay, a: it’s a movie, and b: the Shun Elite 7″ Santoku Knife is made like a samurai sword, and c: NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK! Honor, tell him!”
Honor clutched the script to her chest. “Um, I kinda just, you know, want to get the credit, so… I don’t care?”
James nodded slowly. “Honor,” he said in a strangely calm voice, “What does the script say?”
“It says the Shun Elite 7″ Santoku Knife is a ninja’s weapon.”
James nodded again, turning to Byron. “I trust this is settled?”
Byron said nothing. James smiled.
“Places. Take two.”
Honor mouthed a “sorry!” at Byron as she ran out of frame. And like the professional he was, Byron found his mark.
“You are a ninja, young man! You have a code of honor!”
“And yet, I am sworn to destroy Master Von Santoku, the monster who killed my father!”
“You’ll never survive Ninja Court, my child. As your lawyer, I think you should take this!”
