"Oh wait, I'm packing an entire machete" *Pulls out a massive fuckoff machete* Beautiful job Tommy, you've got me absolutely cracking up at the same time as making a perfectly valid and true point - a person can be armed to the teeth without anyone else even realizing

You forgot to mention the old trick of sewing silver dollars (not sure what the equivalent coin would be in the UK) into the back of your front cap, so it can be used like a blackjack.
In the Sheffield gangs wars in the 1920's the two favourites where a short fire poker in a pocket sewn in the jacket sleeve or razor blades stitched in the peak of the flat cap that basically all working class men wore at the time.
Unfortunately Americans due to the bizarre political situations are unable to get silver dollars so easily anymore but have to rely on paper Federal Reserve Notes. Doesn’t pack much of a whallop in any sense
*Here's how that is for us Americans:* Heavily armed: (concealed) 1, 2, or even 3 handguns, 3 or 4 knives, any sort of blackjack type thing, and possibly a walking stick or cane that could be either a shillelagh with a weighted end, or a sword cane with a blade hidden inside it. Heavily armed: (open carry) (semi-military equipment) Any sort of large rifle or shotgun, let's just say it's an M4A1-S, 1, 2, or 3 handguns, a few knives, one of which is about a foot long, and one larger blade like a short sword.
I like this video about bewaring of how someone can conceal weapons. Would be nice to see an updated video on what you can use which IS legal as a weapon for purposes of self defense, and how to carry them properly and safely for use. If there is such a video, forgive me, I just stumbled onto your site.
The trouble is any fight you get into....your going down for 6 years. You need weapons that aren't weapons. Rolled up newspaper, folded in half known as a millwall brick. A metal comb. A pen. A spray can of deodorant...travel size. A bank bag of coins...one of those plastic ones with the coins lined up tight, with the bag rolled around them....as soon as it's over, the coins are spread so no offensive weapon. A metal torch. I could go on
- Most of the weapons were stashed behind your back and we only ever saw you from the front. Not the case irl. - A weapon simply wedged in your sock is going to fall out at some point. Or fall down into your shoe making it uncomfortable to walk. - That tiny little sock knife isn't going to do much. - The bigger flick knife can inflict a lot of damage, but your attacker would probably die hours after the fight, or just suffer horrific injuries and still live. Very effective at encouraging thugs to hunt you down for revenge, but not very good for incapacitating a determined attacker. Would work as a deterrent for many people, but not a psycho. - The coin and lead coshes do a lot of damage but are more likely to bruise, draw blood, and possibly damage bones, they're not particularly good at concussion, which is what you want for self-defence. They're more attacking weapons than defensive weapons. - Worse with the garotte lol - maybe good for assassins but useless for self-defence. The machete, garotte, flick knife, and mini duster; are all illegal to carry in the UK. If the police stumble across you with those then you're getting 6 months behind bars. Don't get me wrong i like the creativity, but you've got a lot of thinking to do if you want to try to come up with techniques that work for real life self defence rather than just a cool gimmick.
@@alkaholic4848 Howdy, the point of the video isn't to show smart ways to hide or carry weapons. It exists for one sole purpose - to remind people that it's often hard to tell if someone is armed.
Saw the ring first off. My favorite was the coin--what did you call it?--kosh (?). And where in theeee hell didjyu pull that entire machete from, lol!! That pig sticker and machete, and really, the bike chain too (as modified) is awesome amount of legal trouble if you're caught just walking around with them. The ring is illegal over here (US) too (some places). But that coin bag/ leather sap is genius!
Nice, really well done. I typically go out to walk my dog with a handgun, two knives, a kubotan, a light meteor hammer, a garrote, the dog leash which has a very heavy clasp, the backpack has three one liter steel waterbottles. Has some mass, some defensive capability, some offensive capability. The normal carry is 13 rounds of ammo summer, 21 rest of the year. The dog is about 90 pounds and loves me. He's not gotten violent, but he does love me. He gets between me and loud dogs. There's also some first aid in the backpack. Messemup, putemtoghetheragain. Then there was the day I bought two pry bars at a yard sale, 18 inch and 50 inch. One in the belt, one over the shoulder on the pack. And the little old ladies think I'm so nice walking my dog, and the parents let their kids come and pet the dog. And if I had to I could carry three pistols, several magazines for a total of 127 rounds. A few regular reloads, a New York reloads, a few reloads, another New York reload, a few more reloads. By then everyone close by has hearing damage. Classic never mind the dog, beware of the owner.
A heavy watch like a Diver's watch, take it off and hold the strap by the bracelet... Act as if you are giving it to them, a quick flick of the wrist to the nose, eyes or temple will do some damage. Especially as the are expecting you to give them a free watch, their defences will be done. Tried, tested and successful in the field.
In my young rough teenagers years it was some cheap cs or oc spray and a (usually) folding knife or a heavy pipe, which was hard to hide on the body, so sts it was carried in the backpack. Guys carried also trench shovels or axes. Rarely big badass military fighting knives. Machetes then (80s in Eastern Europe) weren't popular at all, probably because they weren't available that easily. Flexible hitting implements like chains or flexible batons weren't popular because they were not producing bone breaking power, just pain and bruises. The key was always to (a) have those toys perfectly concealed and (b) readily available in one smooth move. I carried some small coins in left pocket, throwing them into the face always provided a distraction, very short lasting one, but long enough to take other actions. Edit correction: OC appeared sometime in the 90s and it was pretty weak at the beginning, it was CS in the 80s, not perfectly reliable but better than many people think nowadays.
Great video thanks. Weapons are to be felt not seen. Your hat could of had a weight sown into the pinning to make a slap Jack & who know what else is under the hat maybe a throwing star. Could have a gun in the other ankle or behind the back. Those suspenders could strangle some one too.
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun, he got a razor in his shoe. Well he bad, bad Leroy Brown.... 😄 Howdy big Jim. The only thing you're missing is a 2 piece custom made pool cue. 😆
To be honest buddy, nothing can be carried in the UK legally if you intend it for self defence. However you can get good at using items that no one could argue were for such a purpose (such as using a normal pen, phone, or whatever). But to be honest some of the best rewards for improvised items is not as weapons per se, but shields. Using bags / backpacks as a barrier against weapons until you get your shiz together. I have a backpack themed vid somewhere on my channel 👍
I never guessed the machete but i could tell the movement was a lil stiff. Only guessed around 4-5 right. Then again, i was asked to observe. If i wasnt, id only guess 2-3. Deadmeat 😁
I thought the one on your head was a concealed weapon. The knife took too long to pull out. Other things - yes, perhaps. Machete hanging down the leg is an impediment. I wouldn't want to walk with a machete "hidden" behind my back like that. It would feel awkward and will be visible. The message in general is clear though - weapons can be well concealed. Thank you for that!
Other than the duster, most of those were rather cumbersome trying to deploy. If I sized you up, I would expect a push dagger in your waistband, the dusters, and possibly a straight razor concealed in the bracers (suspenders). Anything else would be irrelevant because you would have to let down your guard.
Howdy, mostly they’re for theatrical effect to showcase how hard it is to know what someone may carry. Few of those would be my personal choice. The variety just makes the example stick in minds better 🙏🥊
Bro you're not walking down the street with a machete not printing... c'mon now. And it doesn't matter how many weapons you have if you can't deploy them faster than an attacker can disable you. Better to have a few that you can deploy instantaneously and a few backup options than be loaded down with things you'll never get a chance to use.
But it restrains your everyday movements, you cannot sit, drive, etc . . . Not very usful, except if you plan within a few minutes to switch to rambo mode.
Please, DO NOT encourage the use those mini knuckle dusters (or any knuckle dusters). They are going to hurt the user as much if not more than the adversary. They are one of the worst self defense items ever invented.
Blackjack... Machete... PP7... KF7 Soviet... Laser gun... Double grenade launchers. All from his back pockets. It's like Goldeneye on N64.
These days you might just get through airport security with all those gizmos! 😂😂😂

@@DrMARDOC I know right?
There are thousands upon thousands of silver and gold coin dealers in the US.
Excellent points... I'm always interested in what people outside of the 🇺🇲 consider heavily armed.
*Here's how that is for us Americans:*
Heavily armed: (concealed)
1, 2, or even 3 handguns, 3 or 4 knives, any sort of blackjack type thing, and possibly a walking stick or cane that could be either a shillelagh with a weighted end, or a sword cane with a blade hidden inside it.
Heavily armed: (open carry) (semi-military equipment)
Any sort of large rifle or shotgun, let's just say it's an M4A1-S, 1, 2, or 3 handguns, a few knives, one of which is about a foot long, and one larger blade like a short sword.
I love how this just kept escalating 🤣🍻
I died when you pulled out the machete 😂😂
Very good remembering to always assume the opponent is armed! Thanks Sir
As an American, tactical concealment looks a little different than what you folks across the pond get into, but im suitably impressed

Yeah, I believe all of the shown implements are illegal in the UK and Ireland.
The machete reveal made my laugh "oh whats this 🤔 AN ENTIRE MACHETE" 🤣🤣
I’m suddenly obsessed with this bloke. Excellent videos.
I appreciate all the green you had there on the blackjack, watch band and machete sheath. I’m not Irish I just like green lol 🍀
You are tge passenger every TSA officer dream about
I was waiting for an antique 1911 that didn't make it back to the US.
Stirling work my good fellow.

Where did you get the mini duster? I looked but couldent find anything.

I will be more vigilent when im doin search for weapons!
Not gonna lie I laughed at the garrote part😂😂
Tommy..where do you get them Purse/Koch? Thx
I picked up a couple of coins purses from Amazon. "Yes, officer. It's a coin purse"
Tooled up is an understatement 😳😁
The machete is a nice touch!
He's got an anti-tank rifle down his other trouser leg.
Heavily armed incognito!
You’d be in trouble if you ever needed that knife. That took way too long to get out and open.

Awesome 👍🤣🤣🤣🍻🍻🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴
Packing a whole mf machete.

I would get arrested for almost all of that but I can legally carry a firearm lol
What about those two straps thats are attached with your pants ?
Bro.., thank you.
I wonder how many years you would get banged up for if the police did a random search
But not a single firearm... 😅 machete was a bit of a surprise, I must admit ... but it ain't no 9 mil😅
What Napoleon say,you can't seat on bayonet,I think you can't seat on machete,when in

You likely.to be arrested for the machete then a gun in the US
Whut!! No peaky blinder??
You forgot the hat, that thing can do damage, also for distraction

Wtf is wrong with you xD
Get your gun rights back.
