Nono. It's just that I've always seen them on American TV and some games... so wondered why I've never seen them in real life.

I have seen the damage they do. Way over-the-top if you ask me.

I own one, admittedly never used it and never would, a mate bought it in France and seemed easy enough to get back as well :rolleyes:

its metal and weighs a tonne, dread to think how easily it could smash someones face up

definitely wouldnt hurt your hand tho lol

Roll of £1 coins clenched in the fist is a much better solution or a kubaton key ring, not that I'm suggesting it you understand.

firstly you knw too much lol

well a lad near me did the coin method got stopped an searched he just had 10 2ps and a roll of cellotape and didnt get charged.

i personally would not liked to get punched by sum1 wearing them as i think every1 *** lol

They are about as legal to use and carry as a knife, i thought that was common sense, even the idiot hoodys that get knicked with them wouldn't be stupid enough to say "i thought i was allowed to carry then/smash his face in with it"!!!!!

I've seen in person, the damage a good punch to the face can do with a knuckle duster - it's not pretty. You've got to know how to punch to get the best effect out of it, but nonetheless they can do a LOT of damage with one blow.

Wear lots of rings and just say your wife is mental and wants you to wear a wedding nail ring on every finger.

Kubotan's / yawara's are illegal to carry too.

Why not just use awareness and common sense and avoid people who look dodgy before you get to them?

Because the day when your scared to walk past someone because they "look dodgy" is the day you die inside.

A large climbing carabina (sp) doubles as a key ring and a knuckleduster. And they're not illegal to carry.

Karabiner.

And if it is large enough to go over your hand as a knuckleduster then it is surely going to be inconvenient to carry around, not to mention that most I've used for climbing will leave a large gap between your knuckles and the outermost metal which is less than ideal.

What the hell was he going to do if he got into a fight? Ask them all to kindly wait while stacked the coins and taped them together?
