Killer pen collection

Corrections1 readers will remember a Contraband tip from last November that described the Deadly Blood Pen, an instrument that looks like a pen but is actually a killing device meant to quickly drain its victim’s blood.

This week we have a wide array of pens that, like the blood pen, aren’t meant for writing. You’ll notice that though most of these “pens” are actually stabbing devices, two of the shorter devices to the left of the ruler are actually spray canisters, presumably designed to hold Mace or pepper spray — a type of contraband weapon we’ve seen before.
