The 3 Most Famous Hidden Blades for Self Defense:
Hidden blades are weapons that were used by assassins in the past for close combat. They are sharp blades, often made from steel, that were concealed within items like a cane or a ring. An assassin uses the blade to kill their victim or unsuspecting victim quickly.
Today, concealed weapons take many
forms and serve many different purposes. These blades can still be found in
martial arts weaponry and military equipment, but also as everyday objects like
penknives or belt buckles.
Famous Hidden Blades:
These blades are weapons used in assassinations throughout history. They are also called poison blades, daggers, or knives. These weapons were invented in order to assassinate enemies of the wielder without being noticed by the public- usually a noble within a given country's power structure.
These blades are usually disguised
as everyday items such as pens and walking canes, some even have small
mechanisms that allow them to distort their appearance. The blades are not
necessarily hidden from the target, as some assassins leave them where their
targets will find them. Below is a list of three famous concealed blades:
1. Pen Knives
It's impossible to deny that knives have been a popular weapon for centuries. So it's no surprise that many people are looking for a blade that is hidden, easy to carry, and quick to use. Pen knives are the answer!
Pen knives were first invented in the early 1800s because they were ideal weapons for close-combat fighting while still being small enough not to get caught on clothes or other obstacles. As time went on, these hidden blades became more popular with people who wanted concealed weapons.
They gained additional fame among
spies and secret agents during World War II, an era of heightened espionage
activity. And today, pen blades remain pretty famous due to their convenience,
ease of use, and size (5-inches long).
2. Buckle Knives
A belt buckle knife is a folding knife that fits into the buckle of a person's belt. The blade of this type of knife can be varied in length but is usually around three inches long.
Belt buckle knives are prohibited in
some parts of the world, like Saudi Arabia, due to fear that terrorists will
use them as suicide bombs by concealing them on their bodies and detonating
themselves. They are legal to own in Canada and Western Europe but banned from
being imported into other parts of the world like Australia and South Korea.
3. Comb Knives
For many years, there was no need for women to carry concealed knives or hidden blades with them since the options were limited and bulky. Fortunately, the market has evolved with clever designs that are easy to conceal and not heavy to carry even in a purse or on your keychain.
Those days are gone when women had
to be brave enough to pack a blade into their handbags because they can now
thrive without carrying any baggage at all! And we have new "comb
knives" on our hands who never knew they could be so elegant and stealthy?
Use Blades with Precautions:
There are many safety measures for hidden blades, including but not limited to:
- Don't wear the blade when you're
eating.
- Learn how to use and properly
dispose of a blade at the end of your training period.
- Have a short blade that is easy to
conceal. A small knife is better than two large knives.
- Make sure that your knife has no sharp edges or points on it or you'll have an accident
The way to be safe with these blades is through knowledge and caution. Know your abilities and limitations. Get some training from a professional. If you use hidden blades, always wear gloves. Don't conceal a blade that is broken or dull. Don't practice with these on your body.
