Say you put nicotine one the blade of a knife in liquid form.When the water evaporates,a brown substance is left on the blade(the nicotine).If you were to stab someone would the nicotine on the knife enter the blood dtream and kill the person?

Just a question.

Woohoo look, a bad idea!

Recent studies have shown that killing people can, infact, be illegal.

This is bad idea's, we're supposed to encourage murdering, cheating, doing drugs, making drugs, growing illegal plants, making illegal things, robbing banks, blowing up cars, and over all we're supposed to encourage any bad idea that may pop up on the forum.

Anyways, back to your question, yes I do believe it would enter the blood stream but, why would you need to kill them with nicotine if your stabbing them? Just came up from behind them slit their throat and then slit their wrists along the vein.

We're not supposed to encourage anything. But we can answer all those types of questions.

And yeah, if you're stabbing them I don't think you really need to use nicotine.

Hold up...you've got a knife, why go to all that damn trouble. Slit their throat or stab them to death. Its much easier than going through all of that nicotine shit...trust me...I've tried...

The nicotine in tobacco won't work for that.

I wouldn't know about that. Yes, you would be better off just slitting them, but maybe he wants to (hypothetically) kill somebody in a slightly "calmer" way. Beats me.

Stabbing people to death can be a pretty bloody endeavor. Try it on someone/something and see what happens. Poisons are hard to work with on non-disposable weapons (comes off in pocket, might slash own hand etc etc.)

Edit: Oh yeah AMEN eXo5.
