[ QUOTE ] I envision this: you swing from your right, as a right hander. I have knife in my right, since that's the furthest from your bat and I can't have the arm doing the absorbing be the one with the knife. You probably don't land the perfect blow, but shock the crap out of me I burst into tears dropping the knife to hold my newly broken arm.. you seeing the tears also realise this isnt the way forward. We hug a little, I draw some wood.. the sunset fades. [/ QUOTE ] fyp. [/ QUOTE ] LOL nh. I stand corrected! |

[ QUOTE ] A bat strike is not conceptually different than a leg strike, just quicker and stronger. [/ QUOTE ] And a knife strike is no different than a punch except pointier. [/ QUOTE ] kinsa surprised you think this. the difference is a glancing blow with a knife is likely very damaging. |

I was in a bat/knife fight as a teen. On the way back from the park, an older guy pulled a knife and tried to rob me. I dropped my mitt and jabbed at him with the bat and once I got some space I held him at bay by just feinting a couple swings and screaming help at the top of my lungs.
He was larger, faster, and stronger than me, but in an equal fight, I still think I take the knife. In order to get a real debilitating swing in, you're going to have to put a fair amount of momentum into it and you're going to leave yourself exposed. Additionally, you won't go head hunting, b/c you'll want to be sure to connect so that your follow up backswing is shorter. I don't think a really hard swing into a guy's side, even if you [censored] his ribs up, is going to prevent him from sticking a knife in your gut/eye. Even though my encounter probably only lasted a minute, I just remember being terrified that if he back stepped, he was going to stab the [censored] out of my back and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. |

I knew I didn't really want to read this thread, I knew it would just tilt me after the previous discussions on it.
My answer is bat. I have read pretty much every post in this thread and the other posted. Its still bat. Your answers will not change either. Just stop arguing. |

teller is on different show? [/ QUOTE ] I think I only saw one of those shows. But it sounds like something Penn would love to bring him in on. As Teller says, he's not the first Teller. |

it's obvious knife will win, since once you pick up a bat, your feet become roots, and you can't move at all.
and apparently once you pick up a knife, you can move at super sonic speeds and not be be affected by pain. |

I got the names mixed up. Guess I think of them as kind of the same thing. |
