I always have fun finding new uses for "mundane" equipment. I'd love to see some ideas from the community here on equipment from the AA.
To start things off...
Rangers Survival Knife - Sawback Shortsword (With hollowed pommel) Fill the pommel with items that might be of use in the wilderness such as a length of twine for building shelters. Optionally - If you make it of adamantine you get a saw that can cut through nearly anything.
You can blame Rambo for that one!:p

A launching crossbow is also a great little item. Combine it with alchemist fire, and you get a wonderful way to start fires, light fireworks, or ignite explosives at twice the distance you can throw. (Launching Crossbow has been errata'd to a range increment of 20feet.)
A launching crossbow combined with fused grenades gives you a grenade launcher!

Wrist sheath (spring loaded) + crossbow bolt (possibly poisoned) = single shot close-range weapon, perfect for attacking someone who thinks you're unarmed.
I'd probably rule that it can go no more than about ten feet in total, considering the spring is really only designed to release the object into your hand. Still, it's a pretty awesome visual.

Hmm... an interesting thought.
If you wanted something along those lines though I'd be more inclined to update the "Spring Loaded Gauntlet" from the 'ole 3.0 Sword and Fist.
However... you can work your idea of throwing a poisoned bolt by taking the Throw Anything feat and treat the bolt as a improvised weapon. The plus side of actually throwing the bolt is that you can add your STR mod. to damage as well.
So... with the whir of miniature clockworks and a soft *slap* a crossbow bolt would appear in your hand upon which you throw it like a dart.

Not sure how "good" these are. Having a crossbow style grenade launcher certainly amuses me to no end. :D
I've seen a few posts about the "Holy Water Super Soaker" and indeed that is a great combo...
How about using the Pump Water Canister and Liquid Ice in conjunction.
