Bought this cactus today and I’m not sure what it’s called. Does anyone know. Also does anyone know what the brown spots are from or what they are. I hope it doesn’t have pests :(

I don’t know what cactus it is but the brown spots look to me like just damage from getting bumped or stabbed by other cactus it was near.

That thing looks vicious.

I know right? Like as soon as I saw it I was like is that safe to post online? That looks like a serious weapon.

In case of an intruder, just throw that at their face 🫣

Best have that baby in a secure pot and location away from trips, slips, kids and pets… 👀 I admire it as a plant lover but I’m much too clumsy to house that bad boy!!
