i know of 2 for sure anything more than that is a guess
This was a special loot that randomly came up and offered in Mafia wars. Like the gas mask and now they are offering the meat cleaver. The amount of mafia members you have decides how many of these you can get. You can also now get this item by buying a mafia crate.
You can only have a maximum of 501 and many people have that.
It's definitely in the thousands to millions. I've heard numbers such as 10,000, 100,000 and even a million. It's probably near 100,000 to 500,000 though.
Mafia Wars is a text based game that you can play through sites like Facebook, Myspace, etc.You can fight other players in this game and when you check the profile, you can see the number of fights that you have won/lost in a row, etc. Its basically a stat counter. All this information is provided under Profile which is located on the right side of the screen on mafia wars page.
You should have as many of each item as you have mafia members. This way when they help you out in fights or doing jobs they are guaranteed to have the best items for their level. So if you have 100 mafia members, you should ideally have 100 of each item.
joining a clan or family, or by posting to one of the many different sites that are mafia wars add sites. Depending on where you play, you can just type mafia wars into the search site, and many different things should come up.
so far there is no limit on how many family you can have on your mafia family but you can only take 500 mafia families to attack.
