Weapons

A surprisingly long list of weapons or items that could be classed as or turned into weapons that have been in orbit here from Gizmodo. Thanks to Garibaldy for the link.

It’s all here, penknives, golf clubs, laser and machete guns (the Soviets were particularly aware of the necessity for defence since their capsules fell back to Earth on land and the potential for attack from wild animals was always a constant concern should said capsules overshoot the intended landing zone).
