Let 'em stay then. I don't give a good goddam. And don't think I'm scared. I don't need to take any chances. I got Coffin Ed's daughter by the hair with my left hand and I'm holding a razor-edged butcher knife against her throat with my right hand. If you try to take me I'll cut her motherraping head off before you can get through the door.

Sheik threatens the chief with a knife held to a girl's throat.

— Sheik in Harlem Cycle #2 - The Real Cool Killers (Chester Himes, 1959)
