[QUOTE="MoBoost, post: 1632925, member: 3455"] Since the thread is brought back ... a quote was due for +100 Here is my 2 cents: "Knife is a weapon" is a 21st century fad that created a market niche and "experts". Humanoids figured out that you need mass or reach to call something a weapon. Speaking of "experts" - a few times in the thread training is brought up. IMHO unless you have access to human cadavers, knife training is 99.9% waste of time. Unlike real weapons that have energy/inertia, knife interacts differently depending on a target - I mean, what other "weapon" can be stopped by a matchbook? Yes it sucks if gun fails, another gun would be optimal; anything else is just clawing for your deer life - knife gives you a sharp claw ... a street rock gives you a hand axe ... opposable thumbs give you ability to choke and fish-hook.... yeah when you are that deep in poo something is better than nothing.
