*Item #:** SCP-5000

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: Item should be kept on a pedestal in any size containment room. Any personnel known to be or have previously been suicidal is not allowed to touch SCP-5000, although they may be in the room. Any personnel who do not meet the above requirements and touches SCP-5000 must undergo at least;
• One month of therapy, with a focus on the importance of life
• Daily antidepressants and serotonin boosters, to be injected intravenously.
If after these treatments, if the subject is still experiencing effects, they should be terminated or undergo high-intensity memory replacement. Gloves are able to stop the effect, it requires skin contact with SCP-5000 for its effects to be activated. Which subjects respond to treatment and those that do not appear to be random.

Description: SCP-5000 is a standard issue [REDACTED] branded box cutter, measuring 10.16 centimeters when fully extended. The blade is incredibly sharp, although the steel alloy it is made of is not unusual in any way. Anyone who hasn’t experienced or isn’t currently experiencing suicidal thoughts can hold SCP-5000 with no ill effects. However, if anyone who has experienced or is currently experiencing suicidal thoughts touches SCP-5000 for more than 3 seconds, either the blade, knife, or a part measuring more than 1.27 centimeters, they will try to kill themselves with said object. If they are restrained before they can do so, they will express the following 2 effects;
• extreme suicidal thoughts
• a phobia of knives,
These effects do not appear to worsen with the amount of time held as long as that time is more than 3 seconds.

Addendum 1:
Recovery notes:
SCP-5000 was recovered from an abandoned residential home in ███ ██████, ██. SCP residential operative Agent ████ noticed suspicious circumstances regarding the condemned house and was instructed to investigate. SCP-5000 was acquired 6 hours later along with the body of the agent. It appears they killed themselves with the blade. Their body found next to SCP-5000. There were several slashes noted in vertical, 7.62-centimeter-long slashes in both arms, almost all of which were unnecessary, as three slashes would be more than sufficient for a suicide.

Addendum 2:
Select Experiment Logs:
Experiment 1:
A D-Class lacking previous or current suicidal thoughts picks up SCP-5000 from the handle for 10 seconds, then the blade for 10 seconds. No effect.

Experiment 5:
A D-Class with previous suicidal thoughts picks up SCP-5000 from the handle. In exactly 3.21 seconds (determined by a standard-issue high-speed camera) they cut themselves 7 times with the blade before being restrained. Subject died of blood loss. Autopsy reported no differences in brain chemistry than that of a normal D-Class.

Experiment 18:
A D-Class with [REDACTED] suicidal thoughts wearing gloves picks up SCP-5000, from the handle for 10 seconds, then the blade for another 10. No effect.

Experiment 22:
A D-Class with current suicidal thoughts grabs SCP-5000 and hold the blade against the skin of their calf. In 3.21 seconds, the subject made several downward slashes and barely survived. After the required one month of therapy and anti-depressants, the subject’s condition does not improve. They are currently [REDACTED].

Doctor █████‘s Notes:
I recommend we stop experiments and keep this item locked up. We’ve already lost ██ subjects to this thing. I’m putting in a formal request to stop experiments.
*REQUEST APPROVED*

Item #: SCP-5001

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5001 should be kept on Doctor █████’s desk, with a cover placed over it except during testing. SCP-5001 should not be used by anyone above Class-D and without explicit permission from Doctor ██████ the Site-██-B director. . Any unauthorized usage that does not result in death will result in an immediate termination. Anyone wishing to use SCP-5001 must fully understand the risks associated with it No one is allowed to use SCP without full approval of the Site-██-B director.

Description: SCP-5001 is a half empty can of [REDACTED] sparkling water. Any and all attempts to empty it have been futile, it always weighs 6.52 fluid ounces. The liquid inside is clear and does not freeze or turn into vapor. This liquid is dubbed 5001-1. It also stays carbonated, despite it being open. The can is indestructible, up to and including standard issue C4 plastic explosive. When SCP-5001-1 is drunk, the user is bestowed with a completely random effect. The effects do not depend on how much liquid is drunk, the user, and the same effect has never appeared twice. Effects only impact the subject consuming the liquid, (effects such as fire and explosions affect the surrounding area, however these areas are not imbued with these abnormal effects.) Effects include the following, but are not limited too;
• Bursting into lilac colored flames that reportedly smelled like burnt wires and vanilla extract.
• Growing 4 wings each of a different type of metal. Subject died on the spot. Wings connected through the 4th and 8th vertebra.
• Turning into SCP-███.
• Developing an inverted respitory system, taking in carbon-dioxide and producing oxygen. Subject died, as the rest of their body still required oxygen.
• After consuming SCP-5001-1, subjects I.Q tripled. Subject has joined the research team after a Class-A anesthetic was administered and false memories were implanted. If anyone speaks of this to Dr. █████ or Dr. ██████, they will be reprimanded and possibly terminated.
• Subjects blood turned a deep golden color with navy blue swirling patterns. No other effects noticed in relation to the blood samples taken or the composition of the blood. The navy and golden blood do not differ in any chemical makeup.
• D-Class subject, after consuming SCP-5001-1, displayed knowledge of classified Foundation activities including the true nature of SCP-███. Subject is terminated, and all personnel related to SCP-███ are under full evaluation.
• After subject drunk SCP-5001-1, they exploded with the force of 50 pounds of TNT. ███ personnel died and SCP-████ nearly breached containment after Site ██-B was destroyed. After this event, further experiments are under much stricter guidelines and must be reviewed by the Site ██-B director. This incident is hereby dubbed incident 5001-██

Addendum 1:
Retrieval Notes:
SCP-5001 was retrieved from a [REDACTED] sparkling water factory, after it was found by a Foundation CDC member in a shipment of cans accidentally made with a non-CDC approved aluminum alloy. Reports of mysterious deaths and extremely bizarre events occurring were investigated and linked back to SCP-5001. Cl

Addendum 2:
Doctor █████’s note
After incident 5001-██, potential experiments on D-Class subjects must be reviewed by the Site-██-B director. It must also be explicitly stated that only D-Class subjects may consume SCP-5001. If any non-D-Class personnel is found using SCP-5001 and lives, they will be reprimanded, demoted, and potentially moved to Site ██ for Keter-Class duty as punishment.
