Lets have some fun: Switchblade or Brass knuckles?

I don't want to play that game
I'm too old for either

 

[41Dude]

Me too lol.
It was a little bit tongue in cheek question

I have both. Never carry them anymore. Put aside with my leather motorcycle jacket, engineer boots, and pomade for a Ducktail hairdo!

Brass knucks would probably drag my shorts down without a belt but I'm the winter they would be good in my overall pocket. I would probably find a way to stab myself with the switchblade.

Throw in a blackjack or sap as well.

I'd much rather pistol whip someone than risk breaking a finger, so I reckon I'll take the switchblade...thank you.

Are you a Dapper Dan or Dixie Peach pomade man?

 

[hittman]

Good call, I too have a SAP and a couple of collapsible batons including an old metal one.

I've always wondered that about brass knuckles. If they hurt the person wearing them as well.

Too be honest, I've never seen a set of them in person.

Not necessary to say how I know but a good knife is very intimidating to most people. Even more than a pocket gun. At least that's my experience. My sap is handier than the knuckles.
A switchblade must have a lock. Unfortunately Buck switchblade doesn't have that. Probably need a Benchmade.

A little eye candy auto shapness.

Of the two the knife. It's better for maintaining standoff distance or barring that finishing an opponent quickly with a well placed blade. I essentially EDC variations of both though. I always have a folder clipped to my pocket and I have used a carabineer on my pants to hold my keys or hammer etc since Jr High School. The keys also have a flail effect when swung at someone's face. Flashing metal coming at your eyes will make almost anyone wince even if they aren't particularly damaging.

Properly wielded a blackjack or sap is a fearsome weapon. Turn a sap sideways and use it like a tomahawk and you can really tear someone up. A round jack has the potential to cause more damage. Either one will ruin your day if you are on the receiving end.

Trucker's 'tire knocker' for me.

 

[GasGuzzler]

I used to carry an aluminum bat in the truck. Less incriminating. Always wanted a switch blade. Brass knuckles look like they'd hurt.

The added teeth are a nice touch LOL. I have one Foster blackjack. I need to go get it and post a picture.
