I've almost ordered one, a couple of times now. I'd probably never use it, though, and despite the alarming number of folks out there (growing every day, it seems) that actually believe in a coming Zombacalypse, I just don't see it happening.

As to bladed weapons in T2K, one of my favorite PCs carries a hatchet. He recently used it in combat (after carrying it around for two years, RT) for the very first time, to great, if messy, effect.
