As of late May 2016, TeslaCrypt, a manufacturer of ransomware, shut down their command and control network and released the master decryption key for TeslaCrypt versions 3.0 & 4.0.

I had a brief encounter with an Emerson PSARK. The following is what I ultimately noticed about the knife. The knife comes in a pretty thin walled little box, as pictured, with a fold out advertisement card. The hardware used to assemble the knife are all flathead or phillips head screws.
