I saw This Case Classic celluloid on the bay and my quirky mind for some reason related to the Mason Williams song Classical Gas.

The song is a classic but the knife described as having "tarnish form storage" is a classic example of a modern celluloid outgassing. Hope the buyer isn't too disappointed when the knife continues to self destruct.

If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Re: Classical Gas vs. Classic Outgas
I can’t believe celluloid is still in use.
I’ve been aware of new celluloid knives, and watch out for them, but it still boggles my mind.
Its literally planned obsolescence. Even worse one knife can take out a collection of knives.
Luckily the look never appealed to me, so I haven’t been burned by one. Yet.

I'm still amazed by how a cel handle can completely destroy one side of a knife & leave the other completely untouched!
