Self Defense In Emergency

[Billy02]

Carrying a boot knife, is it a good option for self defense in case of emergencies?

 

[CB Jones]

Can’t hurt.....but hard to get to

Also check concealed weapon laws in your area.

What sort of emergencies do you have in mind?

 

[CB Jones]

Why in the boot. Why not just a good pocket folding knife?

 

[hoshin1600]

let me save everyone some time....the same answers for the baton also apply to a boot knife as well as :

• pocket knife
• belt knife
• tactical pen
• kubaton
• pepper spay
• PR24
• tonfa
• sai
• nun chucks
• Rapid Rotation Baton (your welcome Roy, for the advertisement)
• tazer
• stun gun
• stick
• walking cane
• coffee mug
• and kitchen sink

just in case those were going to be the next threads

 

[pdg]

kitchen sink

Quite possibly the best one from your list.

Definitely the hardest to conceal though.

If you like jail I guess.

When someone says emergencies I think of things like road traffic collisions, people becoming ill, fires etc. you know.... emergencies. If you mean are knives in boots good for self defence situations that's a different thing. One would have to wear boots in all circumstances and that could be awkward.

Firstly, if you carry any weapons (except your brain, fists, etc. to the smart ones), check the law in your area. Otherwise, you may get arrested...
Secondly, if your area does allow you to carry weapons, and you feel a need to carry one, I guess you should get one where it can be within easy reach.
Also, make sure to be trained with the weapon you carry if you carry one.

My first though was why do you want to keep a knife in your car boot, it would be better if having it with you.
Then realisation dawned, some one once threaten to stab me with a bAyonet t t he had stTapped es d to his leg, I said go on them and whilst he was trying to Unstrap it I hit him with a beer bottle.

If your going to have a weapon, then it needs to be available, hang on mugging me whilst I tIe my shoe laces is a high risk strategy

Carry a knife can be a good idea, it can come in useful in all sorts of ways, I had to Cut a suicide down whilst walking my dog, Not really an emergency , she has been dead a while, but still useful.

Emergencies really life or death emergencies usually require a good amount of physical strength and Or fitness to deal with, being ready for one takes a good but more than having a knife in your boot

Not really, no, not even like this.

I can imagine that would be hard to walk round in after it’s been deployed. Kinda like wearing swimming fins (those things on the feet).

Flippers,?

 

[JR 137]

This would be more useful than pretty much any weapons discussed lately...

That’s probably what they’re called more often.

That would be hard to keep in a boot, too.

I had a similar jacket in my youth.

Self inflicted pain was a real possibility - sit down, rest elbows on knees, say ouch.

But if my shoe rings I could kill myself.....

i cannot reply to everyone but in general i would reply
first i dont think it is too hard to get, there you go Buy CSGO Deep Aversion Neck Tactical Boot Knife Online at Lowest Price.

now i also dont understand why or whats with the boot, but there has to be a logic behind it.
to me boot knife is like more of a spy thingy. but i also think it might be easier to grab if you are on the ground and the attacker is on top of you, as the reach is easier. well i am be totally wrong, that is why we are discussing, isn't it?
