Lock-Blade Swiss Army Knife |
Instead of researching his task, McGew made the assumption that all Swiss Army knives are pretty much the same. That assumption is inherent in his introduction:
"The Swiss company Victorinox manufactures and markets Swiss Army Knives. These multi-function pocket knives feature a variety of built-in blades and multi-tools. The design of the Swiss Army Knife allows you to easily open and close any of the blades or attachments."
To be succinct, Matt blew it – and not only because he failed to mention that Wenger also makes "Swiss Army knives," which have a different locking mechanism. McGew merely transcribed some Victorinox instructions for a generic, non-locking knife instead of doing five minutes' worth of extra Googling about blades that don't simply fold up. He didn't do that, though; didn't even bother to wonder how anyone could be such a dumbass that they didn't know how to close a knife. That's what makes Matt our Dumbass of the Day.
