Xa Agripha Well it wouldn’t go entirely out of the window, if the burglar was unarmed then the person with an weapon would be intimidating. If the burglar had a gun then they could still be intimidated by a bigger gun (a shotgun is more intimidating than a handgun). Or it doesnt even need to be a bigger gun, if the burglar sees that someone else has any kind of gun, they might just flee because as much as they can kill the person, they can also be killed as easily. As goes the phrase ‘he who fights and runs away lives again another day’. It would be far better for them to leave than to risk being killed and instead target someone weaker (if both parties have a gun, they are on equal terms, if only one has a gun, the one with the gun has all the power).

Anyway, where possible, use gas weapons first, even if they're not lethal to possess. Highly effective, low risk, worst case you will get fined. (Laws against these are extremely stupid, such as German and UK ones.) Now if you have a blunt implement and a knife, blunt force could be a good choice. But you probably won't have both on you. The main problem with hammer, made or club is that they're inferior for thrusting and this attack is best for keeping or gaining distance. Something like a stick, narrow baton or pipe is much more useful in this case. See, the point in self defense is either to incapacitate immediately, whe fun or knife is best, or too keep yourself safe, where a tool that can gain distance is best. Funnily enough, a gladius or long knife or sachs or dagger sized waster is quite optimal size and damage for the latter purpose. Arming sword or sabre waster is too long. Rubber or very pliable ones are not quite damaging enough. Essentially right size water is like a nightstick with very much superior grip.

Trying to not hurt someone is not a good attitude, unless you have an effective tool to ensure that and know how to use it. (Real blackbelt level hand to hand grappling, disabling and effective weapon like a pepper spray or a taser and skulls to use it properly. Note these weapons directly disable.) A blunt weapon is not disabling enough if you don't have a follow up and actually want to kill with it. Pain compliance does not work, it tends to make robbers angry and that is worse than doing nothing... Either use maximum resistance, escape or compliance. Halfhearted attempts get you hurt or killed. Calling police? And wait up to hours on them? This is essentially annoying a robber, might as well hide and lock yourself in, you'll be safer. But then you might not have anywhere to run which is a bad time, can't rely on that. Home invasions are a real deal in some places.

Is that a locking blade on that pocket knife .. if not there's NO way that's a good idea .. lose your fingers. I use blunted sai If I'm going to investigate weird noises. :) Good for bludgeoning, you can grapple some while holding them, you can use them defensively along the forearm, you could throw one if you wanted to keep some distance and if you drop them your opponent is probably going to try to stab you with the bunt point -- painful, but probably not that serious, particularly if they suck at it .. and if that doesn't work, since I'm in the US, I also have my glock. However, interesting story .. I had some random guy I've never seen, probably on drugs or something, try to kick down my apartment door. He went across to the neighbor's and started to kick that one too, so I took that opportunity to come out, show him the gun and tell him to leave .. yeah, he charged at me anyway! Got the door closed, he kept kicking, cops finally came and he attacked them. He spent an hour in the hallway screaming at the top of his lungs while he was handcuffed or whatever and they carted him off after he calmed down. So, yeah, threatening a crazy person with gun .. not as effective as I'd hoped. LOL. -- As a side note, I was fully prepared to shoot his dumb ass if he made it inside, but luckily for both of us the apartment had a nice steel door. :)

You could do a powerful cut if you rest your sword on your shoulder. You're also gonna swing diagonally rather than vertically or horizontally. Heck, there are lots of different ways in which you can swing a sword wnd get a very damaging cut without hitting anything else. And even light cuts can be very bad. For example, on the face. The bad thing about short weapons is you have to get closer, so it is more likely the opponent can hurt you with a weapon of their own, or gain control of your weapon. Not the knife, though, cuz the opponent can only grab the blade, which not only would get his hand badly cut, but is very hard to hold on to as well, and can't really stop an attack before it gets full force.

Interesting, saw this after 3 weeks and like to think about this as well. You might be right on all points but I am bored and gonna give my thoughts as well. I think the worst to pick is that small knife. IMHO your common burgler would not be intimidated by it and he has very likely be a knife that is a bit bigger. As you said, knife fights are horrible, there is no chance for you to come out of that unscathed even if you are HEMA trained. And if there is more than one enemy you have already lost, you can't retain some distance. Mace is good I guess, a bit like a hammer or a small wood axe. Some even recommend a screwdriver but... nah. Swordwise I think you do not have the best sword for the job on your wall. Pirates solved the problem of confined space with Hangers and Dussacks and some later Cutlasses were good navy swords. And I think that's the best answer for sword freaks, a Cutlass. Great punshing power (Almost like your Dumbbell), long enough to beat any normal knife, short enough to not hit your wall. Great force behind the blow even with smaller swings, cutting and piercing well balanced and even a bit of protection thanks to the basket. That being said, I am in Europe and when I hear a strange noise I take my baseball bat with me. If you take a sharp object or a weapon with you, you have already lost in court. Take a tool or a sport instrument if you want to have any chance at all. My swords are not in my bedroom anyway, chances are high that in case someone breaks in he will be at the place where the swords are before I can encounter him... So I am the one who can then look what HE picked for fighting me in closed corner lol. Before I die I'd make sure to judge his decision in that.

Dagger esp. sharp not rondel is probably the best, mace/bat being a close second - you still need space to swing it and it's easier to parry. Heck, a sharp kitchen knife is good enough if you know how to use it. Buckler is good. Two daggers is better than grappling since other hand is free to grapple relatively still. Esp. Spanish style parrying dagger with full closed hand guard (cup especially) is super hard to remove from hand which is good if you're being wrestled by some madman. The extra reach of half an arm is actually huge and even if you scrape something the balance of a dagger means you won't lose the weapon. And the guard can be punched with like steel knuckles. Pocket knife has a problem of being easy to wrestle away with the tiny grip and being single edged. "Eff I've been shot (at)" is a thing too. Handguns, even black powder, work if loaded and ready. They're dangerous in that state though, plus the are more gun laws than knife laws. Don't forget about pepper spray, it won't be fun for any party involved indoors though for at least half an hour, but it is an effective short distance weapon, if limited use.

Tbh a dagger seems the best imo, because you'd want to have a bit larger range in case they have a knife or something larger than a knife, you have a guard and you could also threaten with the stab so they'd go away. I don't really agree that a small pocket knife us any good or that the mace is better since it seems to be the same length as the dagger, but without the advantage of stabbing motions. Then add a buckler and even bagger. If you have the place a short spear would be the best though I think. EDIT: and really what do you do if your opponent has a knife too and tries to attack while you have just a knife... I'd rather have a dagger at the very least in that case, preferably with a buckler which i can both easily drop if there's a grappling problem going on.

In what mind is a pocket knife more intimidating than a fliping sword? Anyway, in my opinion, the best option among medieval weapons would be a rapier along with a buckler, since it is a sword focused on thrusts, it works well in confined spaces, and the bucker can help protect you from an attack. It's also quite intimidating, if I were a thief with a knife and someone pulled out a sword I would probably back away, and gaining range in this situation seems important to me as well. Another option would be a boar spear along with a dagger, you are gaining range and it works well within a hallway, plus if they grab the spear you can quickly go out with the dagger and stab it against them. A mace i guess its a good option, but do you really want to fight a knife or something else with a mace? i dont know if its a good match for you.

Not gonna lie. Since I don't have a bat anymore, I used to investigate suspicious sounds with my bokken (not sure I spelled that right), wooden practice katana. I preferred it to my knives just for the reach, since I usually anticipated an animal instead of person.

I made a spade and yes I say spade,out of a flat bar that's 10 lbs and has a broad tip,its kind of a more modern approach to the sword. Which I personally would use since I can split a log with it,and I practice in doors with it in a cramped environment. But snap has a point for a general people don't bring your sword into a situation where you would probly need to fight. Especially if your moral and have a conscious. Becuase you'll pause up once you realize your not a killer. Then your real trouble starts. Becuase if they broke into your house its a good chance the person might not flinch and kill you. Especially if they have a gun,and there's many ways to obtain one so don't go fooling yourself,its life or death in situations like this.

The fencing mask is scary. :D. I have been thinking along the lines of short spear ala Zulu or a sling bow. I guess the Mosin carbine with bayonet extended would work.

In this day and age a burglar is most likely to have a gun. In this day and age, the best weapon for defense is a gun. Preferably a shotgun, I mean just the sound of you cocking a pump action shotgun. Is enough to make most burglars think twice about attacking you. Even he also has a gun, which would most likely be a pistol.

I cant fight well. Thats why when my alarm is triggered, red strobe lights come on as welcome to the jungle plays then a precorded voice laughs and says how you picked the wrong house obscenity. If that doesn't scare them off, idc, im already out the window running like a lil girl

I have a rounders bat from when i was a kid. So i tend to just take that whenever i hear a bump in the night, for much the same reason. If it comes to it in court i can say "i didn't think about what to take, i just grabbed my old rounders bat" etc (If you admit to THINKING about what to take in the UK and you happen to kill the person, then it is considered premeditated murder.)

I would use my small axe but hold it with the axe head in my hand and hit with the handle. Then I could punch with the head. But I have a few different types of one handed axe's.but as a Viking I also have some very medium length seaxs. As you said my swords are to long. And forget about my spears.

As a boxer, I'd have to disagree with you on not having two weapons. A heavy flashlight and a mace or buckler and a mace would be perfect. Unless you're right on me from the beginning of the altercation, there is no way you aren't eating at least one or two strikes rushing at me.

well i actualy have loads of small weapons for home defense but if i have the option i'll go first for a good knife 'cause it would be a good choice, a hammer, a telescopic baton, or my knukle-dusters if i don't have any thing else at reach, but there is usualy a combat or tactical knife in almost every room in my house so i'd go for that (not a folding knife just full tangs because you don't want to have to open a knife when some one bust in your room)

I have to disagree with you on the knife. In my opinion, the most important thing is to keep the burglar at distance, because when he also has a knife for example it can get fucking scary for you. To hit with a knife, you have to get closer to the burglar than you want.
