Ghost of a flea

I have thought about a sword cane. My step father had one years ago (he never carried it out) that was topped by a carved ivory skull. I've never been one to like skulls as decorative motifs, but this was interesting in it's craftsmanship alone. The sword was quite nasty looking as well. Of course, here in Georgia I can legally carry a firearm (and typically do) with my CCW license, but I cannot carry a sword cane with the same license. So getting one would be largely pointless.

A traditional walking stick with a weighted head would seem to make more sense in my case as an adjunct to a revolver or pistol and a small pocket knife.

I carry a homemade cudgel when I run at night.

Flea, is posting links to instructions on how to make a Milwall Brick sort of like posting a link to the Anarchists Cookbook?

In this case, I think it is better for more people to understand what might be used against them as a weapon than worry too much at the risk some jihadi picking up ideas not already covered in some al-Qaeda training document. I hope flight attendants are all being trained in some variant of Systema; a pen can be put to some nasty purposes.

Yes Millwall the thugs of English football. They are serious hard-arses and pretty much every fan fears that lot.

Millwall fans would be less irksome if their team could stay in the premiership for more than 9 months every 10 years haw haw haw!

Oh my.. I want to learn systema now. I took Shotokan on and off since I was 13 then I watched three years of Aikido from the sidelines as my son tried to be Steven Seagal and learned quite a bit about locks and motion control. Syetema though. coolness.

Now I want to go get into a fight. Someone steal a purse or rob a bank at Millwall Brick point around me and run away would you?

Hopefully your son's Aikido training paid off as Steven Seagal's getting a bit too pudgy for movie duty these days. The 21st century cries out for an Aikido master to star in a new batch (or possibly remakes) of all those three-word-title action movies of yesteryear (Above the Law, Hard to Kill, Marked for Death, Out for Justice, On Deadly Ground, etc etc).

Ah yes. Seagal is um, pudgy. I saw a year or so ago that his "band" was playing the empire theatre in Belleville when I was in that (random diety)-forsaken hole for supplies. I was both mortified and interested and happily the show was cancelled before I spent $25 to be bored with his grotty "musik" for three hours just to say I saw him..

Yes, Belleville, that wretched hive of scum and villainy.

now if one looks at Bellevile like THAT, it makes it much more interesting and adventurous to visit.
