It's not that food weapon is close to the German word but it's the description this German guy came up with.
Silverware (Tafelsilber : banquet/table silver) exists.
Besteck used to mean sheath, bestecken could be translated as to decorate with, stecken is to put into.
TIL
Tafelsilber is silber tho.
I could see the Swedish being translated as stabbers
skriva: to write
beskriva: to describe
sticka: to stab
bestick: stab-related noun?
"Honey! Break out the fancy eatin' rifles! We got comp'ny!"
my Dad liked to refer to it as fightin' gear...
I'm stealing that
In America ... they would have handed him a Samurai mall sword and a shotgun
German guy looks around at everyone eating their food with swords and shotguns
Samurai mall sword
🤣 Why is that a real thing anyway?
Made from high grade aluminum. Says made in China in it so you know it's genuine.
Germans use a fork and knife for everything. Pizza: fork and knife. Burger: fork and knife. Yogurt: fork and knife. Jewish souls: fork and knife.
I thought Germans used Zyklon B for that last one?
Zyklon B is just German for “fork and knife.”
Yogurt: fork and knife.
That's called cheese, bob.
Fork him.
