The knife game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Knife Game, or 5-Finger Fillet, is a common game of guts, and fun. Placing the palm of your hand down on a table with fingers apart, using a knife, or sharp object, the player attempts to stab back and forth between their fingers, moving the object back and forth, trying to not hit them. The game is seen periodically in movies and television, perhaps most well known in James Cameron's Aliens. Many people use a safer version with less harmful objects.

- Peggy Hill of the television cartoon King of the Hill suggests the name "stab-scotch" for the game when volunteering as the tutor of a Death Row inmate.
- A virtual version of the game can be found as one of the activities in the PlayStation Portable game Work Time Fun.
