Thank god I don't live in California.

No, brass knuckles are for people who can't fight.

Not to defend the People's Republic of California, but I think most cities restrict the knives you can carry like that. The length limit varies within a couple inches.

This thread cracks me up.
I can picture some dude about to
get into a fight..."hold on a second
whilst I reach into my pockets and put
my brass knuckles on, now you can
attack me".

True story: My grandmother was a white trash slum lord and when I was 17 she gave me a pair of brass knuckles and wanted me to go collect on some back rent.

Well anyway I am not a big unit, I am small and yes I do train and practice training and I have done karate for 9 years I quit a while ago.. Silly mistake.
Where I live there are a lot of idiots, drunken fools and so on. I am not planning on hitting no-one with brass knuckles not do I plan on fighting at all.
But you feel safer knowing you have them in your pocket.
Brass knuckles could fit into a pocket easy, Some say so can a knife.. but me being young I do not trust a knife nor do I plan on using a knife to cause bad stitches I don't think I would try protect myself with a knife because I haven't learned how to use one and could easily poke or slash my self with it.
Not trying to annoy you guys with my silly posts it is just to make me feel safer.
I don't wanna carry something to big.

you dont want to cause "bad stitches" , brass knuckels can be just as dangerous....lol at a 12 year old running around with brass knuckles in his pocket to protect himself from "idiots" and "drunken fools"

[LongTimeLurker]

Lol at "used to do karate" be elusive!

But honestly if someone pulled brass knuckles out against me I would take that as serious as someone pulling a knife and respond accordingly.

aka using a knife if handy etc against you and if your problem is just some drunken idiots bullying you this will just make it 1000 times worse.

What was your cut of the action? Hope she wasn't a cheap ass.

I can see the headlines now.

BREAKING NEWS: Judge weighs charges

The preliminary hearing for a juvenile accused of severely beating an illegal immigrant from Honduras will resume at 3:30 p.m. After a recess. At that time, Magisterial District Judge will decide which, if any, charges will be dismissed and which will be held over for trial. Already, Rick RM has dismissed first and second degree murder charges against , the immigrant 18, of Randomville, but has held over third degree murder.

A new charge, assault with a deadly weapon, was also filed against Rick RM Monday. Allegedly he used something like brass knuckles in the August 21 attack on the immigrant.

NAMES and LOCATIONS have been changed to protect the innocent or in this case, the guilty.
