In case you're wondering, this is a bucket of machetes. I found it in a general store called Numeros when I was looking for a shower curtain. The reasonably prudent person is different south of the border. Thanks for ruining the way I see the tort world, Professor Russell. And in case you're also wondering, why yes, they do sell children's toys here. I shook my head in disbelief, too.
Oh, and the Aviso in the picture above, says that children are not to remove machetes from the buck. Yeah, that'll work. I don't know what kind of child you were, but this one would have listened as well as all the other disobedient mocosos that get transfixed by the mirrored finish of gleaming blades. I've never had occasion to discipline a machete-wielding child, but I may yet get my chance.

Perhaps mexicanitos learn about hot burners and sharp objects more readily than their norteamericano counterparts? ¿Tal vez? I sure hope so. Maybe those ones are just too cheap and chintzy to cut anyone open.
And yes, I'll want a stouter machete for hacking at sandÃas, melones, and the like.
