Two questions immediately come to mind. 1) Would you buy the cyanide if it was on the list. 2) Where does one casually buy cyanide? I can't imagine a case where I'd need some, but it would be handy to know if I ever did.

I know you used to be able to get it for pest control, but maybe not anymore. You could also make it the old-fashioned way with molten washing soda. It can be used to make Prussian blue, for one thing.

Obviously take all necessary precautions, especially keeping NaCN away from acids.
