Well they make it out of anything at hand. Common articles such as tooth brushes, foam cups, plastic lids, stray bits of metal inmates find on the yard, parts of bunks, radios, TV's, or other appliances, Popsicle sticks, toothpicks, and glue can be used to fashion a prison shank. The simplest weapon an inmate can "make" is a standard #2 pencil or a Bic pen, both of which are readily available to all inmates for purchase.
The how is another matter. It depends greatly on the medium used. A shank can be fashioned in a matter of minutes in some cases, and over the course of weeks or months in others. The deciding factor is availability of material and the ingenuity of the inmate doing the fashioning.
