Brass Knuckle

I would like to get some brass knuckles, only I have no clue what to look for, and what makes good brass knucks.

What should I look out for/avoid?

If anyone can recommend sites to get them from I would be grateful.

Any help is appreciated.

make sure it doesn´t have any sharp edges, you want to break bones not cut flesh. I´m pleased with mine and it actually saved my life once. But nowdays i´d rather get a black jack because it´s so stealthy.

I own a boston leather midget blackjack.

It's nice. Next time I'll buy the rounded end ones instead of the flat.

You have to understand how bad the damage they do is. They fck ppl's faces up. But if you're really interested and are willing to take the legal risk then get them in black. So if you wear black gloves your opponent doesnt see em. But in the long run i suggest you do not get them.

They're a bit timely to put on and dont always fit well. They do a lot of damage and can get you in trouble in the UK if caught with one. The leather gloves with iron padding are good, as you can wear them and they look like ordinary gloves at a glance.

I prefer a kubotan personally. They're easy to use, and just by wrapping your fist around can toughen your punch and helps prevent breaking your hand. Forget all that pressure point stuff, just as a hand reinforcer and blunt implement strikes to eyes, nose, and temple is good. Looks like a key chain also.
