Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: CUT IT IN HALF

Special Containment Procedures: Any people claiming to have seen SCP-XXXX should be administered Class-A amnestics. Undercover Foundation personnel are positioned within the range of SCP-XXXX's manifestations. Should they encounter SCP-XXXX, they should immediately attempt to tranquilize it and secure it for containment. All previous attempts have failed due to its anomalous ability.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a humanoid claiming to be a door-to-door salesman working for the Half-Off Store(despite no such store existing in the area).

SCP-XXXX manifests in front of houses in ██████, Massachusetts. SCP-XXXX will then knock on the door until the resident opens it. It will then manifest and attempt to sell a variety of objects at half price. It has been observed to manifest items ranging from a piano, a toaster, a hydrogen atom, and many other items. Should the person purchase one of the items, SCP-XXXX will cut it in half with its bare hand. SCP-XXXX has been observed cutting through steel and other durable metals with ease and no damage to its hand.

The following log contains the text transcript of an audio recording of a Foundation researcher interacting with SCP-XXXX.
