Btw just want to say thanks bc your videos taught me pretty much eerything i know about paracording and im starting a small bussiness soon so yea thanks keep it up man❤
I use an alternative method of self defence in my car here in Australia. In the storage hold in my door I have a sock full of coins. It is heavy enough to give someone a face ache or head ache but if ever I were to be pulled over and searched by the Police my explanation is the coins are for car parking meters or fast food when I drive through a McDonald's. Nothing they can disprove..
Switchblades were associated with youth gang culture in the 1950s, and there were movements to make them illegal. Now many of those laws have been repealed. But people still assume switchblades are illegal.
It's also not quite right to say that there's no difference in the danger between a blade that opens with the push of a button vs folding vs fixed blades--that's in order of decreasing danger...to the person whose blade it is. (I actually have been trying to decide just how I want to tie the lanyard for a knife I sometimes carry while hiking, for emergency needs.)
I tied one containing streetstone (10*10cm granite) and left it hanging in the city. It was gone the next day. But I am not sure it counts as street art. However, the pavement has a lot of these stones. Intifada ammunition. Great upload thx!
One slight correction about Canadian weapon law: It would not become illegal when used for self defense. Technically, defending yourself with reasonable force, even with a weapon, is not illegal, but the laws are vague and open to interpretation. It is illegal to carry an object with the intent to use it as a weapon, even as self defense, but not illegal to use an object to defend yourself. I can carry a pocket knife with the intent to open blister packages, and even use it for self defense. Although, proving self defense, especially with a knife, is difficult, and peoples ideas of reasonable force vary wildly.
Yeah I think in my video I stated that "carrying anything for the purpose of self-defense is illegal" so you could obviously carry a knife for utility and that would be legal. Also, I'm not sure about this part so don't quote me, but I recall something about only being able to use equal amounts of force for self defense. So if your attacker is punching you, but you pull your knife on them that is illegal. But if they have a knife and then you pull your knife, it's legal. Again, I could be wrong, but I recall hearing something ridiculous like that. 🤷♂
Here in the great white north none of those things are necessary because fearless leader proclaimed in the house of commons recently "we will protect Canadians" regarding the firearms ban.
Wild that people are still doing the whole "first" thing. Genuinely wanna make a monkey's fist snake whip, might just try it out to mess around with the knot
Monkey fist became legal here in the Great State of TEXAS a few years ago, along with brass knuckles, black jacks and slap jacks. But if you run into a Jerk Cop he/she can really screw up your day having any of them...
With something like a monkey's fist, I think it more comes down to intent. If it's the size of a marble, and the length is short, it's pretty clear you're not aiming to take someone's head off with it. lol. In Oregon any sort of spring assisted knife is illegal yet I could legally walk down the street with a sword on my back because it's a fixed blade. Spring assisted includes switchblades, stilettos, OTFs, and even flipper tabs if they open with a spring to help it.
1:58 sooooo, carrying "anything" for the purpose of crime-ing "is" legal? Ya, I know, making a point. Sad state of affairs when a person can not defend themselves with anything but their bare hands when we all know, criminals don't care about the law and will do and Carry "anything" they want. Way to go Trudeau. Great way to take care of your country and treat your surfs well. Weaver, I feel for you and i.hope one day you will be able to do what is needed to defend life and property in your country, that is unless you like what your country is doing, in this aspect, in which case more power to you and no offense was intended. Live long and prosper - Nanu Nanu
How do i know how many turns i need for my ball when doing a monkey’s fist, lets say I want to make a monkey fist with a tennis ball how do I know how many times I need to wrap
The arms industry has lobbyists that allow for nonsense like that, banning a monkey's fist is politics 101. Pass something that does nothing at all to keep people from realizing who owns most politicians(arms and pharma industries).
It seems like you could just tell the police you use it for camping, if you have a place to tie off a bit of rope to it, it is genuinely useful for getting a rope around a high tree branch, in fact that use case seems more plausible than self-defense to me. as long as you didn't actually use it for self-defense, it would be very hard for a court to prove intent.
at one time the “switch blade” was called a SAFETY blade, many lady’s had a small one in there sewing kits. they could stick there hand into the bag grab the knife cut a string and replace it in there kit, knowing they would NOT cut there hand open.
Sorry about being Canadian and having no defense rights. I carry a pistol and a decent size knife daily and it's 100% legal here where I live in the US.
I wish I had that right. I live a very lowkey and safe life, but I wish I had the option to carry for my own protection as well as that of my family/friends and even innocent bystanders.
@@TheWeaversofEternity I'll be 41 in less than a month. On my 21st birthday I went to the local sheriff's office and applied for my license to carry firearms (openly or concealed) in the State of Pennsylvania. I have had a gun on my person for a solid 99% of the days ever since then and never once needed it but have come close a few times. Luckily for me, the times I was under actual threat to my life I was in a vehicle and simply drove away. I race sports cars as a sometimes hobby, haha. There's no streets running red, piles of dead kids or whatever the heck the political Left want to claim happen from people like me. I'm just a guy living a peaceful life but able to actually do something if evil visits me in a way that I cannot avoid. Any suggestion from politicans that I or the literal millions of other Americans who live just exactly as I do are any sort of "problem" is just a power grab. Oh, and nearly all my firearms are either illegal outright or highly restricted in Canada... If this and the other founding principles of America make sense to you, and you are able to do so, I invite you to come down South a bit. Unfortunately Biden is giving priority to illegals, so I don't know how long it would take to do it "correctly."
Here in California it is illegal to use , own , carry and manufacture a slungshot, I make monkey fist just for fun and cut off the leads so it cant be mistaken for a slungshot

Lincoln defended William "Duff" Armstrong. I grew up in the town where the trial took place, Beardstown, IL.
Cool!

It does practical purpose if you make it into a key chain.
Good follow up. Informative and entertaining, thanks.
I got pulled over in California and the highway patrol took 2 from me and accused me of manufacturing

Monkey's Fist as a weapon? Never occurred to me.
That's hilarious! I live in Oklahoma where we can open carry an AR-15 if we wanted to. But.... a monkeys fist is illegal 🤣

Constitutional Carry here. It's actually been that way since 1776-ish anyway.
It's written down.
Hat pins were developed / used as weapons in the 19th century

Ehen is a hammer not a hammer? When it is used as a weapon.
illegal to carry in nys as well
I can open carry in nevada... but not a weighted rope

It's illegal in Germany. 🤷🏼♀️
...and that´s owning one, not even carrying.
Amount of people shocked are zero
Only if it contains a ball to make it heavier.
It's clear that it's illegal, imagine if someone were to use something like that to defend themselves against attacks from illegal immigrants, absurd.
Oh Canada…..why do we let you be a country? Seriously, I dig Canada, just not the laws.
