Hi Gentlemen -


as knives will be outlawed soon (see CRKT) we should forget them!


So i am going to buy a small chainsaw with a big accupack. Any holsters recommended?


How about a new forum: the fighting/defence Cottonbag! would you fill it with a glass of onions or 2 cans of beans ??


Stay cool collectors there will be handmade or semicustom bags also! Your child could paint one.


Hi exgunners! OK: Magnum version with 3 to 4 cans of beans for sale soon, if not restricted. Got your CCP from the UN ? Realy ?? you are the one winner this year???
You know a special permit is needed for throwing-cans over 10 gramm from the CIA + NASA + KGB!

Best wishes - -
or so - -

Let 'em ban folders! Just let 'em try it.

I've just been doing them a favor by carrying a sub 4 inch folder. Hell, that's kid-stuff.

I'll just start carrying that wicked-looking, 8 inch bolo-shaped bladed, J.A. Henckels Twin Masters butcher blade in my kitchen drawer! Mine has a black handle.

Where can I get a quick draw sheath made for that?

The problem with laws is that they usually come by the 'nose of the camel' method, and blunted by the 'baby from the back of the sleigh' method. For example, let's suppose 'Lance the Left-Leaning Liberal' wants a career in politics and he needs an issue. Further, a guy with a jackknife picked him last in softball as a kid. He hates knives, but it would be political suicide to attempt to ban them. So he picks an easy target, say Emerson CQC7-B's. He tells people in his district that this knife was designed for Navy SEALS and is only good for killing. The public is outraged, and Rosie O'Donnell demands action. The guy gets his audience, and the knife public is on the defensive. The knife industry wants to blunt the issue, and even some knuts think the CQC7 is overrated, so they give in and let the government ban the knife. The next year, the guy tries it with Strykers. Finally, the government says that if you have 'no criminal intent,' there should be no reason to fear registering your kitchen knives. In truth, I'm surprised that some legislator hasn't looked into 'the tactical knife issue' already.--OKG
 
The gun and knife grabbers know no boundaries. However, they quickly become converted when their lives are threatened. Egland and Austalia adopted rather stupid anti-gun laws; Canada is doing its best to disarm its citizens and confiscate firearms. Don't ever compromise. As someone observed, the Second Amendment is what makes all the others possible. Wish our Canadian politicians had the wisdom to see this, but the current lot doesn't. However, we have an opportunity coming up soon to throw them out.
 
I don't mind legislation that makes society safer regarding guns, knives, and other implements which may call for safety.

I'm even for gun-laws that require gun owners to be responsible (i.e. keep firearms locked so a minor can't get to it).

However, it does not take a genius to see that some of these laws are discriminatory, and do not work.

Go after the criminals. Toughen the criminal codes and leave us law-abiding citizens alone.

The Criminal Justice System is composed of hypocrites. They slap dangerous criminals on the wrist and create a revolving door justice system. Then they have the gall to blanket restrictive laws on law-abiding citizens thereby restricting our freedom. We are scape-goats for the incompetence of the current legal system.

Hell, I'll pay more taxes to build more prisons. Let those criminals rot in a dingy cell!

Fulltangclan, check your history. There is no such thing as legislation against THINGS that makes society safer. The recent story of the 14 year old who saw her younger siblings murdered horribly, then had to runn while wounded, BECAUSE her gun was locked up, is only the beginning.

Get it straight, ALL prohibitions serve only two groups: Criminals and Tyrants.

Registrations is ALWAYS followed by confiscation. Yes, they ARE coming after our guns, and then our knives, and eventually, our bats, boards, bottles...

Civilian disarment is a far older concept that guns -- about as old, in fact, as civilization. Go to www.teesdale.com and find the flash video "90 million." Enjoy.

If restrictions on arms worked to make society safer, Washington, DC would be the safest place in the country instead of the most dangerous -- and Kennesaw, Georgia would be the most dangerous instead of one of the safest.

No offense, friend, but sometimes I think people who are "willing to make a few concessions in the interest of safety" are more dangerous than the all-out disarmament fanatics. At least the latter do not deceive about their intent. The former are a bit confused.

And whenever some duplicitous bastard says we have to do it, "for the children," I want to stake him out on an anthill. Anyone with sense knows we cannot make to world into a padded cell; we teach our children to deal with the hazards of life. Thus, M. Ayoob's excellent booklet is titled "How to Gun-proof your Children," NOT how to child-proof your guns.

OK, rant mode off; I'll get out of here.

I have to double what Lane Dexter said He has hit the nail on the head,and guess who will be colecting your guns and kives it will be the friendly local neighborhood LEO who will do his job becasuse he has to and he is government at work and they wont think twice about doing it, while dragging you out of the church.After all that is what they get paid for and you wont see many quit their job rather then grab the guns or knives.The pention dont you know.
 
Lane Dexter,

While I appreciate your concerns and opinions, I feel you only digested part of what I wrote. A fraction in fact, and took the rest way out of context. A bad habit by many at this forum.

I am not pro-legislation anything.

I just believe there are people (young minors, mentally unstable, people with violent criminal pasts, etc.) in society who should have limited on no access to hazardous implements be it guns, knives, a shovel,...and you will not be able to convince me otherwise. I just knew when I wrote it, that someone was going to start screaming. Sorry, but I don't think it has to be all or nothing.

There can be firearm legislation which allows people to own guns, yet forces them to be responsible to avoid accidents, or criminal negligence. That's all! I don't have dillusions about gun-laws stopping criminals from using firearms.

I believe that law-abiding citizens should have access. Hell, I've played with Sig P228's, AK 47's, and even a .44 Automag; and enjoyed it (see I like guns as much as the next guy). I could care less whether you have a Glock 17 under your pillow for protection, but I sure as hell don't want some kid -- yours, mine (if I had any), whoever's -- to stumble upon it and...Sorry but that shi-t happens everyday. Please don't misconstrue my post!

If you read it in it's entirety, it is AGAINST Big Brother. The bulk of the post was to go after criminals and to punish them accordingly for using firearms in crimes; not to take away firearms from sportsmen, hunters, shooters, collectors, etc.

I'll tell you something else. People that confuse freedom with anarchy, or refer to reactionary views as "freedom", concerns me but let's try to keep the politics out of it. This is a friggin' knife forum, not a city council meeting.

P.S. I don't give two sh-ts whether you agree with me on politics, food, or who is going to win the World Series. I have my opinions as you do yours and we are both entitled to them.

Knives good, guns bad. Very simple. Guns are weapons. I don't care if the owner intends to kill people or use it to fend off someone who attacks his family; the fact remains that in either case, the point of the gun is to kill. If I had my way, some magical force (not God- a magical force) would simultaneously incinerate every gun on the planet, as well as all gun factories. Yes, I'm well aware of the fact that in said situation, no one would have guns, including the police. Works for me. Oh, and people who go around shooting squirrels with BB guns would get hit in the head with a big stick every time they did so.

Howie

Then again, if I had my way, I'd be 6'2"
 
Howie,

I can't say I agree with your opinions, as I do not with Lane Dexter's; my opinion is somewhere in the middle.

However, I do respect you a lot for having the "cajones" to write your opinions amidst a forum with some members who, well,... let's just say they probably have a wardrobe full of "camo" which they wear on weekend get-togethers with other "like" people, at some fortress, er, I mean "church" in the woods. This so-called chuch usually has the words "Christian" and "Liberty" in the name. Strangely, they don't talk about the Ten Commandments or sing hymns much, and the only liberty is the one they take in interpreting history, the Bible, and the U.S. Constitution.

Their favorite past-times: blowing up foreign-made cars, looking out for those pesky FBI/ATF agents, wienee roasts!

Some of their heroes: Darryl Gates, David Koresh, Pat Buchanan, Archie Bunker,...

Oh lighten up will ya! I'm just joking...Kind of.

I'm not going to waste alot of energy on this debate but some of full tang clan's comments would seem contradictory.
Responsible adults will ALWAYS be responsible without legislation and dangerous idiots and sociopaths will always be dangerous no matter how much 'safety' legislation is in place.

"I don't mind legislation that makes society safer regarding guns, knives, and other implements which may call for safety."

"I'm even for gun-laws that require gun owners to be responsible (i.e. keep firearms locked so a minor can't get to it)."

"However, it does not take a genius to see that some of these laws are discriminatory, and do not work."

I am not pro-legislation anything.

FULL Tang Clan-you are from Canada but you
are 100% correct in what is happening in the
U.S. The Criminal Justice System favors the
criminals.Suggestions-no parole for weapon-
related crime;no plea bargaining; & build as
many jails as needed.
New York City & Washington D.C. have the
most restrictive laws but the most crime.Why?

Actually, I've thought about what I said. If I had my way, the only need for guns would be hunting, and that would be their only use. All shots would be kill or miss, with no animals escaping wounded. Everyone would get along, with only fist fights; after all, that's just plain fun. I have no problem with hunting as long as it is for food. How else ya gonna get venicen (never had it myself)? I DO have a problem with sport hunting though. That's murder. Sorry.

BUT,knowing that there are some crappy people out there, I wish that my first reply was true.

I'm sorry, but your ideas strike me as being rather naive. The "weapons bad" argument assumes that everyone in this world is equally capable of defending themselves empty-handed. While it is nice to think that martial arts and a pure heart can overcome all physical shortcomings, if two martial artists of equal skill are duking it out, my bet's still gonna be on the bigger stronger guy. If I were forced to get into a fist fight ("after all, that's just plain fun") with a 6', 200lb man, odds are that I would get severely mangled, even if I could somehow reach his face to gouge or pop out an eye, as sometimes happens during those fun, fun fistfights.

Ideally, we would all get along, and nobody would ever have to worry about these things. Being that this is the real world, however...

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh. I remember what it was like to be a 17-year-old idealist, and I like squirrels too.
