Knuckle Duster question... [Archive]

I underestimated the power of these things...

Now I bought one from a friend for ?30 with self defence in mind but after faffing round with it and such I realise they aint really a tool for fighting with, more like straight up murder.

Do you think a full force blow from a nineteen year old, in the cheek area would land some cunt in hospital, or if the kid lightens his blow abit cud the knuckle duster do good for just puttin em down?

I ask because this question has never been asked and also just out of curiousity.

Weapons are for pussies.

Fight with your fists.

stay away from blows to the head and you prolly wont kill em. and uhh well punching to hard in the chest might mess em up pretty bad. Ive seen those used in a bar fight once and it was pretty nasty

Knuckle dusters=brass knuckles, I hear that a straight punch is bad and you should do sweeping blows as a straight punch can damage you.

Those fuckin things sell for less than that at your average flea market. And yeah, they will fuckin destroy your opponent. You are pretty much guaranteed to cause injury no matter where you hit. Injury as opposed to pain.

ALL is fair in love and war. No such thing as a cheep fight, if they have weapons, that means you didn't come prepared.

Has anyone seen those shitty looking plastic "brass knuckles", if anyone has gotten a pair then it would be interesting to know if they are really as shitty as they look.

Plastic brass knuckles is equal to plastic silverware. The answer is yes, but having plastic knuckles is better than being bare.

Edit: I thought of another one, "ATM machine."

To be honest I think the abs ones look okish, The perspex ones look good also. No matter how you look at it they should all fuck someone up.

I have a set of brass knuckles, or "novelty paperweights", and those will fuck you up.
Plastic ones don't do as much damage but they still protect your hand.

JUST RUN YOU FUCKING PUSSY.FISTS OR FIREPOWER.IDIOT.

Perhaps you can try finding the "caps lock" key and stop insulting the senior members of this board. Maybe I'm asking too much, but can you also stop using the F word as a multi-use vehicle of communication? I don't want to sound rude, but if that's how you intend to communicate here, then I'll have to block you.

Welcome to the board.

Question: I hear all the time how illegal these things are in the US. Is this actually the case or do flea market owners just not care. Just hoping for some clarification here.

I think they're legal if sold as 'paperweights'. Not sure though.

They are. That's how they're sold here in flea markets and surplus stores. Just like bongs are sold as "waterpipes" and you - allegedly - get kicked out of the store by calling them bongs.

The prohibition of objects and substances is a ridiculous joke.

We don't have a weapon or drugs problem. We have a screwhead problem.

In England the headshops sell them as 'bongs'. They advertise them as bongs too.

if u want to use knuckle dusters in a fight without messing someone up to bad i would suggest light, quick jabs to the ribs and abs

I've been tempted to buy a pair for a while now. But I'm afraid the one's that are marketed as "novelty" to use the loophole are shit. Could someone provide a link to a site that sells high quality brass knuckles?

I thinks it is merely a question of whether you want to have bruised fists in the morning after. Saying that I would probably run away from a guy with a knuckle duster in a fight...

Bought one for ?30 from a mate and sold it few weeks later. Classed as an offensive weapon, got sick of carrying it round, whiteying everytime a fed came past.

Was gonna hang it from my neck chain but meh. Too much hassle.

Over here those "Blast knuckles" would get you in alot of trouble if you used them. Having said that I also don't know why anyone would use them in a fight, which is mostly what knuckle dusters are used for. They might on the other hand be good in a defense situation where you are being mugged or something to that effect.

I wouldn't give a fuck, so what if they're illegal. Run up to some random guy in the park...BAZAP!!! Guy goes down you keep jogging. PEACE!

You probably hit the on switch, then hit someone with them.

My mate had a taser and you had to hold the switch in for them to work, but if they're knuck dust types you probably turn them on and thats that.

There must be a safety. It's almost certainly built into the grip.

It has two pieces of metal on the front. When you hit someone, the connection is bridged and BZAP!!!!

Guns in self defence are for when someone else has a gun or a knife and its just a matter of the first person to pull the trigger survives...
