I found this thing used to stab the ground to plant bulbs. Is something like T-1000 would've generated in Terminator 2. Could do some serious stabbing with it. Just bounced into my head.

Yeh, I stopped my brawling years ago, 15 to be exact. I use to really enjoy fighting, it was just awsome. I know, the rush you are talking about, it's just..........................
I've walked away from about 4 since then. It's hard, but I have too much to lose nowdays. Wife and kids, nice house, dogs, a good job, just not worth it.
I'm with FVR, I avoid problems on the street. I carry a SOG folder for whatever, but I don't look at it as a first defense, heck I wear a size 13 boot with a steel toe that seems to work just fine. I don't trust myself to carry a pistol all the time, seems like a remote control with a BIG off button. I avoid trouble with folks because I don't know how to just rough someone up.Quote:

I work in a few bad areas of Atlanta, yet to have a problem. Knock on wood. I keep an eye out, see everything, and always, always have my phone, two knives, a big screw driver or a hammer.
My truck is always close by, it has USMC stickers on it and I have found that most will not want to take a chance. Also, I'm bald and been told I look mean. So, if someone is going to mess with me, they may be a little crazy, so I just take precautions.
Funny, I do the same exact thing in the woods.
Mean? You? Nah.Quote:

If I had to use mine it wouldn't be seen either, and working I liked a manhole hook myself. At my age I have no option to outrun, but I carry a walking stick which I think is much is faster, deadlier and always underestimated. I am well trained in it's use and it's legal everywhere. Combined with other offenses (I don't ever play defense) I can use I don't worry much except for a gun. Any idiot can pull a trigger.
It's been said many times to never bring a knife to a gun fight. Here's an article where maybe it would have been a good idea. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080421/..._rage_shooting
That is like the guys who practice their quick draw, and shoot their toes off. LOL.
Those are the guys that NEED to invest in a crossdraw rig.Quote:

If you are down to fighting, you've failed at all the precursor tells. Avoidance is the best way to win any kind of fight. Yeah, I know. There are sometimes you get surprised but, for the most part, guys don't bother to keep their mouth shut and what was a small problem escalates into something really serious. It must be all that testosterone circulating in all the bull sh**.
I think my testosterone bled out or dried up years ago. It ain't a game and I am aware and very comfortable with what I carry. I couldn't run fast enough but I always get underestimated. I just keep my mouth shut now. I feel very comfortable with a cane against a knife knowing the majority of kiddies don't know how to use one. All they know is show you the blade, you quake with fear and give them whatever. Anyone remember the story about Applegate I believe dropping 2 hoods in NYC when he was over 80 with his cane?
Sure, I understand that. I never want to get in a fight if it can be helped. But sometimes there's no avoiding it. Then you fight with your knife, a newspaper, teeth and nails, a rock, whatever you can lay your hands on.
