The Ginsu that fought at Las Vegas in 1999.

Ginsu was a superheavyweight robot built by BattleBots founders Greg Munson and Trey Roski back when the sport was still underground. Ginsu took several different forms over the years, but each shape had sawblades specially made for it instead of wheels. Ginsu participated in the Las Vegas 1999 event as well as Season 1.0, but participated in only demonstration events for Seasons 2.0 and 3.0. Ginsu achieved little success over its two seasons, winning only once by forfeit in the main competition.


For Season 1.0, Roski made a lightweight called Mini-Ginsu. However, it had technical problems and could not compete. Also, during Season 4.0, a gigantic Super Ginsu was backstage, weighing an
