The Stubfart-O-sphere is all over the doings
on Flimp Island, where only the little girls have
the courage to stand up for themselves.
The only problem is the population disarmed itself.
Self defense is going to be quite different for everyone on Flimp Island.
So rather than fed-poosting, it might be high time to discuss improvised and traditional edged weapons? I gotta say… that little lady’s brace of weapons are a formidable choice. She can easily hold her own against an unskilled, unarmed foreign tosspot. Our vibrant friends and visitors from the third world fear and respect edged weapons. But these are close quarters weapons and that is nasty, dirty business. Most of the R&D on these weapons has been done eons ago. I might suggest the little warrior might be better served by a faster swinging tomahawk or spontoon rather than a hatchet. Kitchen knives will work, but a stiletto would be less likely to get hung up in ribs or bone. Some thought would need to be given to concealment for the weapons too. She’d need a day pack for those tools. But…whadda I know? I’m not a knife fighter. All I know is that you want to get as much iron into your assailant as fast as possible. That’s a bad place to be for any little girl.
What about stand-off weapons? Archery comes to mind…maybe the quarter staff? There used to be a saying that went “fear not the gun”. I guess the best weapon you have is between your ears - provided it’s loaded.
For close quarters non firearm fighting, a Cold Steel Assegai shorth shafted spear is the shizzle. Like a bayonet on a rifle but much lighter so can be manipulated much faster. And it can be concealed easily under a long jacket. DIY build is duct taping a dagger on end of axe handle.
ReplyDeleteThat is how I'd vote anyway - looking forward to others opinions.
Crossbow, hand axe, knife and a 7ft halberd are my preferred hand to hand weapons.

One can make some pretty nice 'stuff' from 20ft 3/8 rebar and some friction tape.

There are modern crossbow pistols that would fit under a jacket that terrify me but it would be a one shot and done in a fight, and the odds are, they're not going to lose much blood from a single bolt. A short hafted, ax such as a tomahawk would be useful to any yeoman. A Faibairn-Sykes would be for those who can stomach being close. The jugular notch is a small target, but it is a fight ender. Otherwise, consider rabbit punching the abdomen and not the rib cage as quickly as possible.
ReplyDeleteGive the young lass a pike; she can pin them from standoffish distance.
ReplyDelete"Our vibrant friends and visitors from the third world fear and respect edged weapons."
ReplyDeleteIncorrect. What the 'cultural enrichers' fear and (grudgingly) respect are people with the will to use edged weapons, or any kind of raw violence, ruthlessly and without hesitation.
The fact that our society is worlds away from even that line of thinking is entirely why we have the problems we do with them.
Agreed. The multiculti hogwash has been so whitewashed and turd-polished to the point that white people have no idea what the third world actually is. The multiculti melting pot is now at a rolling boil and our leaders can only double down on the pressure trying to keep the lid on that pot. This will not end well.
DeleteAnd I’m just peachy with it…
Someday, that lass should have her likeness stamped on a coin.
ReplyDeleteI see this chick and I remember the dude who challenged the Floyd Communists with a Katana instead of a Rittenhouse AR and was disarmed and beaten to death.
