    Hmm, any chance of getting bottle, book, bag, tyre iron, dice, coins, mobile phone, lamp post, stones, nearby dogs and small children added to the list?

    I chose all of them. If I need to use a weapon, I have no moral constraints about using anything I have to.

    Cudgel The name says it all

    None
    AS I have no knowledge of any of these weapons except some very minor knife work.
    I would use a sword or stick.

    Surely brass knuckles must not exactly be rocket science to get the hang of. If it was that or lose my spleen I'd go for all except 2 and 3 section staff.

    ummmm well if it was life and death, ide use them all, all at the same time. and then ide make some up and use them as well. That is after i take his weapon and use it on him first.

    Yoda i think you know what he means.I normally agree with you but i think he just means by himself, not with his fmaily, he could run and then use a wepon as a last resort.

    I would personally prefer to use none of the above.Perhaps a koboutan or a 1 foot or so sized staff.

    If i hapened to have one of these on me would try to break something or knock them out to escape.HOwever i think it would be harder to do this without casuing serious injury.

    That's if the attacker is unarmed.If an attacker is armed i would use any of the above which i had (not that i would carry them) on me.If they had a wepon i would take it to mean they want to kill me.So i would seek to seriously mamae , or if absoloutly necisary kill them.

    e.g.I was once jumped putide of my kung fu class (of all the stupid things to do).I had a bo staff (6 ft) in my hand and a pair of nunchukas in my bag.My attacker was unarmed.I dropped my staff and my bag very quickly.
    Which was hard as i had my bag,a sort of shoulder sports bag crossed over me over making it hard to take off.A lesson whichi i have learned form.Ne way.I managed to deal with the attacker until a nice big guy who worked at the center came along and and "escorted him away" in quite a strong fashion.

    Ne way my point is with slef defence being a grey area in the law i would prefer to use hand to hand methods (unless i had one of the wepons i stated b4 ,kobuton or short staff or even a pen).I feel that if i used any other wepons i persona;y couldn'thave gotten out of the situation without inflicting serious damage.Which could have gotten me in trouble not him.

    I would tho if i felt the need use ne wepons in any situation if i could see or knew or sensed this guy was a complete nutter.

    If i was protectnng my frineds family or girl friend etc.I would always seek to seriousl mame , if i saw the threat.Or agaon kill as an absoloute solution if need be.

    It's a split second desion.whichi must be taken.

    I would try to avoid confrantation and even try to calm the guy down if the fight didn't start straight away but othcourse stay in my gaurd.


    I'm interested yoda.I believe that your araea of expertise is wepons .what are you're opinions on wepons in fights?

    (BTW i know that was bit long windd and not great but it was in no way ment tobe a personal attack on yoda for whom i have form what i've read the upmost respect for.)
    Sorry i just prefer actualy talking to poeple rather than typing to them.Hard to get a cross what u mean.
