| I'm a jogger and I feel vulnerable running around unarmed. For a fighting chance against pitbulls and hobos, I'd like a real small profile knife, probably a folder, and a thigh holster set up that I could have strapped under my running shorts, a lot like pic related actually. I live in California so I'm not sure what exactly the laws are but I believe to I can't conceal carry a fixed blade. | |
| The thigh holster is gay as hell I know, but I don't want to have some pocket knife bouncing around loosely in my shorts, that I'd have to unzip the pockets anyways to get the knife out. Ideally the knife would be flat like a douk douk. | |

| I don't think a thigh holster will work for jogging / running. | |
| You will need something like a Hill People Gear Runners Kit Bag. | |

| running with a leg holster sucks ass and is retarded. if you want to run with a knife, run with a neck knife or have a lightweight running pack where you keep a fixed blade secured inside an easily accessible pocket. | |

| A folder would be the shittiest choice. Get an inside the waistband or horizontal belt carry sheath for a good fixed blade so you can just draw it out of the sheath and put it to use when seconds count. I recommend something like https://www.varusteleka.com/en/product/terava-jaakaripuukko-110-carbon-steel/63681 | |
| Or this which can also be used as a neck knife | |

| Recommend me a DAO, stainless, polymer frame, .25 or .32 acp then. I just want something to make sure the pitbull fucking suffers for attacking me. | |

| You can open carry a fixed blade of any length, but you can't conceal a fixed blade if it isn't 3 inches or lower IIRC. Folding blades are the same idea. | |

| you want a Phlster Enigma as your holster. | |
| >wah I spend a lot of money on holster? | |
| yes, because for your purposes (running), the holster is actually more important than the gun. | |
| carry a Glock 42 in it. | |
| if you cannot carry a gun, then just get a Mora Companion or some shit. if you intend to use a knife for defense, then it needs to be big (for penetration) and fixed (for quick access). | |
| carrying a gun will be better in the long run, and will cause less legal strain (carrying a knife in commiefornia will be looked at weirdly by officers, where if you carry a gun, you have a card to show you can do so legally, absolving you of all officer "opinions") | |

| Let's be honest here, the hobos really aren't the problem where I live, as it's usually some crusty gen x white guy that wants to be alone and not bother anyone. It's the shitbulls and possibly mountain lions that I'm likely to deal with. I live in small town california in the north. | |

| This is designed as a purely defensive knife and attendant fighting system. It's innovative, but I'm not sold yet. What does /k/anon think? Did they reinvent the wheel, or just make a square wheel? | |

| >He stated that the HETK is a defensive instrument because it and his technique target the opponent’s appendages to render them inoperable. | |
| >The HETK is more of a slashing tool, and the first purpose of the system is to stop the fight rather than attempt to kill the opponent. | |
| >In one practitioner’s opinion, the stab is the “least effective way to disable.” | |
| >One other advantage of the system is you don’t have to be physically fit to employ it. | |
| Yeah this is just like Michael Janich's retarded theory with the Yojimbo. Back in the day people kept trying to make the argument that it takes years for someone to be incapacitated by a stab. It just isn't true. If you study what sparing footage of knife situations that exist, you see people go down quick all the time, especially if you get an artery. The reality of using a knife in a self-defense context is that it will be very brief and brutal. You will not have the time or inclination to engage in any of the bullshido limb-disabling these guys talk about. | |
| A "defensive" knife just has to be: concealed, able to be drawn quickly, easy to grip securely, and able to stab. A knife user should be relatively athletic and understand what spots are vital targets for a knife to strike. Anyone that sells you a "knife system" where "even a fat fuck can do it" is just grifting or full of their own smoke. | |

| Which brings up a other question, what's the best place to stab an attacking pitbull especially with one arm sacrificed to its mouth? | |
| --- 57859821 | |
| >>57859669 | |
| probably the carotid | |
| --- 57859837 | |
| >>57859669 | |
| Slash as deep as you can into the neck, try to cut arteries. If you stab and get the knife stuck you're fucked. | |

| I purchased a 16 lb. brisket yesterday and, while cutting the fat off of it, I did a light test of stab vs. slash. That's something you could try, to get a feel. Most notable was the incredible difference between a very sharp knife and a duller knife. There's almost no point in carrying a knife if it isn't as sharp as possible, especially if slashing. | |

| ill tell you what you really want. a gun, cant get one? | |
| get a spyderco manix 2 with g10 scales, or the cheaper option is spyderco's subsidary brand, byrd harrier 2 with g10 scales. spyderco covers its basis with all scenarios for why you would need a knife, and their designs are better than others. | |
