    Here’s another version of my earlier statement: I’d rather defend myself with brass knuckles than be forced into using a firearm. Hopefully this won’t be deleted.

    At 61 years of age and severe arthritis in my dominant hand, I choose to carry a set of knuckles as a form of protection just in case I’m pushed into a situation where I have to use my hands to protect my life.

    Good video, well done.
    Ive reviewed the local laws to my area and basically knuckles are legal if used legally and illegal if used illegally. Im way past middle age so my position is they are an option against younger, bigger or multiple threats.
    Im not a fighter, but ive read most fights end up on the ground. It seems to me knuckles could still be a useful tool in a ground fight and less likely to be dropped or taken away and used against me.
    Still reviewing the laws and hope I never have to get them out of my pocket.
    Im studying pepper spray options as well.
    Great channel, good information and well presented.

    I have added the "no metal knucks" plastic knuckles to my self defense repertoire. I put them in my back pocket at major sporting events for self protection. I carry them anywhere a metal detector stops me from carrying my EDC firearm and/or knife.

    Well, puting aside all social percetpion about them, I suppose they are almost an ideal and very versatile option for self defense as you can carry them much easier than any baton and the way you use them depends on you. You can easily multiple your force transfer by concentrating all the hit energy on a small point. You have an option to eigher inflict a serious damage to the attackers body by breaking any bone on him or if you have to - strike towards his head - that will possibly end deadly for an attacker. I would've carried them if only they were legal here in Poland. Instead I carry push daggers on a daily basis - well, they are meant just do do one thing, brass knuckles could do both.

  • @VTPSTTU

    Thanks for the video.
    These seem a little over the top wth engraving. I assume that all of the words over each finger hole are descriptions of which fingers go in which hole but written in another language. I guess one advantage to all of that engraving is that it might catch DNA more readily than unadorned knuckles would. If a person must use them in self-defense and is able to drive the attacker away but the attacker isn't caught immediately, the police could get a DNA profile of the attacker. If the attacker were making attacks regularly, the DNA profile could help the police catch the attacker.
    These are nice looking, and I'm sure that they would fit me well. I have to wear an XL in some gloves to fit the width of my hand, but a medium glove is perfect for my fingers. I assume that these knuckles would fit my fingers perfectly.

      The difference is the concealability. You may notice the knuckles only after the first hit. A hammer is usually more visible. In addition knuckles are dedicated weapons. When was a kid knuckles could be bought via mail order around here. Today they are banned.

    Those things are banned almost everywhere and are a felony to even possess in many jurisdictions. There are alternatives that are legal, but to be honest, I've never in all my 30 year career from bouncer to emt, to firefighter to cop to bodyguard ever seen them used. My advice to anyone is to not carry or possess them because they aren't worth the legal hassle.
