For the sake of argument spork, how about you and I have a duel. You start with a knife and I will start with a gun. Do you feel that either one of us has any sort of advantage ?

Another thing to consider here, is that things like knives have practical uses. Guns are like our generations stone spear, there's really no practical reason to have a gun now.


That's funny. lol. How about spork and all these gun lovers dual, joe and myself, you all with your favorite knifes, but we get a semi-automatic full loaded, and there is has to be at least 100 yards distance :lol:

Now that would be a cool dual, see if the knife and the baseball bats surge :lol:, even tho you outnumber us, you would not stand a chance, so there for it makes the the case of using a bat and knife the same as using a gun, invalid. Is like saying, using pillows is the same as using a gun, you can attack also with pillows :D , I am being sarcastic obviously, but funny tho.

:lol: I'm rooting for you hahaha

No matter how close you are to the gun, it will still be able to kill... whether you are 6cm away from the barrel or a good number of yards away, it will still kill. Knives are also pretty effective... whether you are cutting someone withing some inches away from you, or throwing the knife at someone a couple yards away, but it doesn't beat the gun.

First, throwing the knife and hitting the target requires more skill then pressing the trigger.
Second, you need better aim then shooting since the knife falls at a bigger curve then a bullet does.
Third, the wind is a bigger factor in throwing the knife then in shooting a gun
Fourth, the knife is lighter then the gun... not sure if this is good or bad.
Fifth, the knife is smaller and more compact... which is good.

The knife has it's good points, but it still doesn't beat the gun in my opinion.
