The can of chili should be a can of beans, obviously. Other than that, good chart!
The longsword second from the bottom seems pretty heavy for that profile tbh. Montante/Zweihänder (last one) is also on the upper end of usable weight. Bordering on ceremonial/parade sword
Montante where definitely used for more than just ceremonial/ threatening looking guards or housecarl. But yes because of their size they were used almost more like a spear.
I’d say wielding a baby is more effective to get your point across than trying to swing an 8lb sword.
Obviously the weight distribution is different but my chain bike lock is just under 9 pounds. Legitimately would be my go to self defence weapon cause it’s horrifying once you start swinging it.
What’s everyone’s EDC?
Chilli is more than most Americans will ever need from a blade.
My city commune recently forbade concealed carry, smh.
Then carry openly and proud. No need to hide your beauty
Not too self: don’t bring a cutlass to rapier fight.
Just bring a polearm, and laugh at all of these
