I went to 1 of the midwest's biggest flea markets yesterday. It was in Hatfielfd. I was surprised by all the unique self defense tools on sale..numchucks, swords, brass nuckles, throwing stars, knives, and saps. I had never heard of a sap (aka Blackjack) before. The guy w/ me was a retired police officer. He said some officers used to carry saps years ago. I wonder if all these tools are legal, to possess &/or carry. Maybe it makes a difference if a person has a concealed carry permit. While all defense tools take practice, I imagine the throwing star maybe requires the most practice. It was an intereresting event.

knuckles/saps most likely illegal in most states.

Many things can be used as a weapon and are legal to carry.
Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

Learn to use your fists. Always available and always concealed until you curl your fingers.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Many things can be used as a weapon and are legal to carry. A quart Yeti bottle with the big D ring handle makes a FINE weapon! It can be greatly improved with a P cord lanyard that goes around your wrist. Mine weighs about 4 pounds full of water and blends in well.
I have nothing clever to put here.

Rock in a sock, or a reasonable facsimile thereof. The only reason that I go South of the WI/IL border is for better is for better golf courses. Otherwise unless I have been drinking, I am packing. If anyone accuses you of fighting fair, your tactics suck.
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. O Lord please don't let me be misunderstood.

If anyone accuses you of fighting fair, your tactics suck. You'd like my definition of a fair fight. If I win, it was fair. If the other guy wins, he cheated. The only time you should worry about a fair fight is if it is a competition.

Gun in front pocket, brass knuckles in the back. If it comes to where I need either, I’m not really worried about legal or not. The whole goal is to walk away and not be carried away.

If anyone in the communications industry knows what a Butt Set is, when I have to work in prisons I carry it by the leads. Company policy is to comply and not resist. Unfortunately that is not in my DNA. Anything can be used as a weapon when things go South. Butt set, pole prod, big screwdriver, line wrench, multiple choices in a tool pouch.

Can’t take all that in a prison, lol.
