Iron Arahat Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 To Goose, My point is that a magazine rolled up can be used as effectively as a Kuboton, but does not have the stigma attached as an "offensive" weapon. Just like a swiss army knife over a hunting knife... Just because you don't carry a weapon doesn't mean you can't defend yourself. Personally I've been in situations without a weapon in my line of work, and because of other skills come out on top. Something to ponder...any weapon you have can be used against you...a gun, knife anything...by carrying a weapon in many cases you increase the possibility of ending up in a box.

moobrack Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 Iron Arahat you said that every weapon could be used against you.That is if they get a chance to use it against you.

Ever since a skate park was put in near my house alot of f*cks (no offence to any skateborders out there) have been hanging around my neighborhood. It hasn't really been a problem for me(potheads can't fight) but my parents were concerned about my little sister. So from now on she walks around with our Husky Simon. He weighs 105 pounds and comes up past my hip. No one goes near my sister now. JackCurrently 'off' from formal MA trainingKarateForums.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Arahat Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 It is true if they have a chance to get it...in some cases you wont even get a chance to use it yourself unless it's in hand. A good movie to watch for anyone is "Surviving Edged Weapons" by Calibre Press. I know there are copies out there, and it is not sold directly to civilians; however, if you can get it watch it. You will be surprised... Martial Arts School http://www.shaolinwushu.cahttp://www.liveyyc.comCalgary Photographer: http://www.jdirom.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortdog Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 i think a sword would be the most useful. but having it while walking around the street would be a problem. but imagine some guy tries to mug you, and you pull out a katana! as far as usefullness id say the bo or knife. but if i could choose anything it would be a whip chain! with a steel ball on the end. it can be used to trip someone 7 feet away, dissarm them, scare them, beat the crap out of them, and if necessary kill them. it is also so concealable! it fits in you palm.
