Seen some people saying it wasn’t a knife that Austin Metcalf was stabbed with and actually is is a “spike sharpener” I run track. Nobody uses spike sharpeners anymore. They haven’t been used since the 60s. Anyone saying this is wrong

Spikes now are screwed into the shoes and can be replaced

It’s also been documented as a 3.5 inch folding pocketknife multiple times. It was turned into evidence, a replica was turned in too, multiple eye witness accounts, and the officer’s body came footage all describe a semi-serrated pocket knife. So anyone saying otherwise is just spewing misinformation

I’ve been running track for a decade now and I only even heard of a spike sharpener yesterday
