Idk how you can get it unless its a download. But ill tell you the way when I find it. Calm yourself down. In my opinion, do somethign else, like the trick Stab'd by Andrew Mayne.
And by the way, if you DO hurt yourself dong this. Nothing but a lil stiches wont fix. But it will hurt though.lol. Sorry, just pointing it out. But do stabd. Its in NAdrew Mayne's Maynia
STABD - Deadly impromptu mentalism using a sharpened pencil. Andrews impromptu version of the infamous mentalism effect thats scarred many performers. A sharpened pencil is mixed up in one of three envelopes. A spectator is given a total free choice to decide which ones are empty no magicians choice!. You stab the first selection into your chest and are unharmed. You slam the spectators hand into the second and theyre unscathed. You then rip open the last envelope to reveal the deadly pencil. While there are more expensive versions of this effect on the market, many who have seen Andrews version feel its the best because it doesnt use any odd props, has an extra gritty feel due to the use of a sharpened pencil, can be performed on a moments notice and is possibly the safest variation out there using a real sharp object.

or, you could just use a pk ring or an m5 to detect the metal, and then you know which one not to stab
Yeah, that is the safest method!!

Now thats even better. I would say the pk ring because its lot cheaper.

the best thing i can say do is use subtle hints to help tell u where the knife is, the easiest thing i can say do is get a long strand of hair and attach it to the knife handle, that way when the cups are placed over it and mixed up u just look for the hair and u will know where it is, that way u wont b caught out if the specs try to deceive u and lift the cups up rather than slide them about
also about stabd, i really dont see how anyone has hurt them self from this trick, the pencil isnt even in the envelopes, the magician has full control over where the pencil is at all times so how anyone has stabed them self for real is beyond me

Exactly my point traum, thats why he shoud do it! ANd I take it that people hurt themselves because they were retarted.

I recommend marking the cups quite well, even though it sometimes says to make them hard to see, I think you should do some pretty obvious ones.
And your planning to get someone to mix em around right? Because if you do make the instructions real clear.
And if it makes you feel better, you can put your hand down slowly, and I guess that could build up suspense, like you can be like halfway through the cup and just scream or something, when really nothing is wrong.
I haven't really looked into the pk method, does it work well? Because I think a pk ring would be really risky...But maybe a ring plus marked cups will do.

use styrofoam cups that have numbers on the bottom so memorize which number has the knife in it but make sure theyre all different numbers
i wont be responsible for missuse of method lol
