''Wallpaper'' magazine selected Recht's store Vopnabúrið, an Icelandic word for "the Armoury", among the ten most interesting shops in the world in 2010, along with stores such as Hermes in New York, Comme de Garçons in Hong Kong and the Stella McCartney store in Milan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.visir.is/vopnaburid-i-hop-bestu-verslana-heims/article/2011880096743 |title=Vopnabúrið í hóp bestu verslana heims|date=9 January 2011|work=[[visir.is]] |access-date=16 January 2016}}</ref>
Recht's studio was raided by the Icelandic police in August 2009 where they seized stock of The Umbuster (a combination of an umbrella and brass knuckles) and charged Recht with prohibited weapons importation, prohibited weapons manufacture, and intent to sell prohibited weapons.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.visir.is/akaerdur-fyrir-brot-a-islenskum-vopnalogum-vegna-regnhlifar/article/2010440742746|title=Ákærður fyrir brot á íslenskum vopnalögum vegna regnhlífar|author=Þorbjörn Þórðarson|date=5 October 2010|work=[[visir.is]]|access-date=16 January 2016}}</ref> Recht initially lost the case brought against him by the police, though appealed, while at the same time opening a new case with the supreme court of Iceland to de-categorise The Umbuster as a weapon.
