*They were used in Viet Nam to take out senturies quietly. Previous warfare too.
*Good choice for close quarters contact distances, especially with grip tape or stippling to cut down on chances of having it taken if the head is grabbed.
*Legal to carry in 50 states without a permission slip because of it's multi use apps. Tire pressure, mechanics helper, etc.
PS: Concealed carry with or without a holster, ie. Slides into belted pants....although there's probably laws about that. LE might not be too friendly to that....but individual choices and live with the results .



Thank you, for the combat assessment of the ball peen hammer. It always seemed like a pretty good weapon to me, though I never had to use it.
And as a back up, imagine the bad guys have broken out the driver's window of the Big Rig and are opening the door. The driver pulls the very sharp Buck knife and begins slicing. Good God that would have been a bloody mess, only if the bad guys had a gun could they have prevailed.
Meanwhile, you got a couple of nigs bleeding to death, with sliced arteries in the arm.
Why didn't you just carry a gun?
