in this video I'll tell you about the most ridiculous weapon bans that made seemingly normal weapons illegal in the most of the countries
Probably one of the most effective blunt force weapons I have seen carried by criminals is the skateboard, and one of the most effective stabbing weapons carried by criminals is a screwdriver. The reason I mention it is because outlawing other blunt force weapons and many stabbing weapons had never made sense to me. The bad guy will always find a way to carry an effective weapon that cannot be declared illegal.
The Screwdriver is a multi-purpose weapon for criminals as it is also highly effective for shattering automobile windows. Less violently incline auto-B&E specialists just use a spark plug.
Excuse me but could I AXE you a question? :-P
@@chrisw5742You just took an axe to a chainsaw fight , boy.
Skateboard is deadly. Fortunately, Kyle had his AR15 to hand.
@@twatmunro who?
Blackjack is the most dumb weapon ever banned. Maybe later theyll lock you up for keeping your batteries too close to your socks?
But strangely legal to own in the UK along with nunchuks
cue in soda cans in plastic bags
You meant to say the ban is dumb, not the weapon itself.
I would question the ban and actual look at your state's legislature. City's might try to ban as every city wants every weapon banned as well as body armor.
Don’t give them any ideas
Stephen Colbert said it best about nunchaku: If someone tries to mug you with a nunchaku, there's a 50/50 chance you'll walk away with the mugger's watch.
If someone pulls up mostly one-handing the nunchucks, or sitting in the over-the-shoulder catch stance, you're about to get a free wallet. A bear hug is all you need. If they pull up two handing it, fucking _run_
I don't get it
@@bashirkhan4206 it means that nunchucks are an awkward weapon and people tend to hurt themselves playing around with them. He's saying that the mugger has a good chance of injuring himself as much as you.
@@user-pn7wq9cl1g Yeah, cup the raised hand...
I think it's probably safe to say that if a mugger is using nuncachu- he is likely to be able to use them!@@seanledig1431
" Banned " but you can buy everything in the video all over the internet or just about any army surplus store.
After July 1st in Florida you can carry most without a permit.
Just because something is banned doesn't mean you can't buy it. Only an idiot wouldn't know this.
No, in many cases they wrote "No postage to countrys where it is illegal by law". But...nothing is easyer that to make a Nunchaku, in the 70s we do that often...wood, chain and thats it. Shuriken/Shaken? A small machine, little bit metal, ready. Or buy it at holiday wher its not banned. Example: EU Coutry. In Croatia you can buy Stars, Nunchaku, Telebaton and Balisong in shops. This items are banned in Austria and Germany. But because there are no border controls between EU countrys nobody knows.
@@drhkleinert8241yeah, you can legally buy any cold weapon here in Croatia (except automatic knife, weirdly), but it is illegal to have on you, in public places, any object primairly desinged as a weapon. The punishment is a monetary fine and confiscation of the object/weapon.
By "banned" he means the British saw it, thought it was scary then went and cried to their mommy (the Queen) about it, so glad she's gone, now new British people eggs can't be laid
I was "detained " at all mall and the cop told the mall security to give me my batton back as it was NOT illegal. That's America
Correct. It's actually legal to carry Sai and Eskrima sticks if you want to, as long as they are not concealed.
Depends on the state.
@@peterv1318 Yeah, things are extremely variable by jurisdiction. Not just state though. Can vary by county and city ordinances as well. You really do have to know what the laws are *where* you are.
@@ColonelSandersLite, and even that varies by state. In many states, a local municipality cannot make laws more strict than those imposed by the state. For example, here in Indiana, it is perfectly legal to own and even conceal carry any weapon you are legally allowed to own (pretty much no weapon is illegal in this state)... and no local government can enact laws to the contrary.
Nunchaku are THE most pathetic and useless weapon ever. they are so useless than its not right to call them a weapon. a more fitting description for nunchaku is a JOKE!
The most dangerous weapon a nunchuck user could ever face, was their own nunchuks!!!
No pain, No Nunchucku!
Oh yeahhhhh!!!!
@@StevenSiew2 Bwuaaaahaaa 😁 😁 😁
When I was in the first grade Nina turtles were huge. My dad made me some nunchucks that I took to school and my teacher not only let me use them at recess but encouraged me to present them for show and tell. Amazing how times have changed.
I remember in the 90s anyone that took hunter safety in school had to bring there rifles to class not their parents they would ride the bus with them and also nobody acted like an idiot
Dude I remember teachers would treat kids who used to play guns with sticks as mass murderers. We weren't allowed to even pick up a stick at all while we played
The more democrats that happen, the worse the world gets. They took gun safety out of school. They took shop class out of school. They took drivers Ed out of school. Then they started introducing queers and drag INTO schools... I'm an atheist and even I admit that Democrats are the Agents of Satan himself they are pure evil they have no good intentions whatsoever and they are here to destroy civilization and bring the world back to hell
For nunchuks I was always told the ban had less to do with them being a dangerous weapon and more to do with them being an easy way for kids to hurt themselves. Similar to the ban on lawn darts.
I've heard this as well.
Isnt that the same with the balisong?
I feel the same thing happened to switchblades, yer just as likely to lose a finger going, "what's this?" Its the ambiguous danger to the uninitiated, if not absent minded professional, that makes the ban valid.
Nah I was around then. It was because Bruce Lee killed a hundred dudes with them in a movie. So Cops were scared that might happen to them. It was a different time. Asian Martial arts were very mysterious and scary to us Western folks. No one cared if kids hurt themselves. We used to play with guns and bows and explosives.
Speaking of lawn darts my dads brother when they were younger were throwing them up and his brother was on the other side and he was like hey hey watch out and he got is stuck right in his head. Don’t worry he is all well today 😂
Actually Nunchucks are not banned in the UK. They are classed as offensive weapons so you can get in trouble for brandishing them on the street or carrying them without a good reason (like traveling to a martial arts class).
In re nunchaku, or "numchuks" as we used to call them... when I was maybe 10 years old, my buddy and I wanted to be ninjas. So I made nunchaku out of pieces I cut from a broom handle, and a length of rope. I have *never* *ever* received a more brutal beatdown than the one I gave myself while teaching myself those fancy moves. I had to convince my parents I hadn't been in a real fight!
I think they were mainly banned for that reason. Too many health cost involved.
Yes, its a real dangerous weapon for the user... 🥴 .
Lol
I look at martial artists twirling nunchunku around and i see behind the fancy moves, hours of smashing themselves in the face, head, and knees just like I did when I was obsessed with learning how. My guide was Fumio Demura’s book “Nunchaku” which is still one of the best books on the subject
😂😂😂😂
Years back we had a neighbor kid around 16 or so that would walk past with numchuks and tease our dogs. We lived out in the country and our closest neighbor was about a half mile away. We had 500 acres across the road and 270 behind us with our lawn enclosed with a five foot tall fence and our house in the center. We had a German Shepard and a doberman and both were bought and trained at a K9 training center that had a good reputation. This kid would walk all the way over to our house just to mess with our dogs, striking our fence with his numchuks. One day we were sitting out front and he walked up and started, I told him that every time I see him doing this I would let the dogs out. He thought it was funny and kept it up, he told me that he would kill both my dogs if I ever let them out. I told him that i'm willing if he was. I told him that I had complete faith in the dogs and that the nearest tree was a quarter mile away so good luck. Well lets just say it didn't go well for him and he ended up need the paramedics, plus we had everything he did that summer on video for mom and dad.
Nice glad that ass got what he deserved.
You give a whole new meaning to, "What I Did Last Summer."
Nunchaku made from fresh bones and rawhide cool idea.
I got charged with possessing nunchuku. The case was dismissed when I pointed out to the magistrate that you could buy them in a shop just a few hundred meters from the court building. 😂
How dare you use common knowledge to win
@@WE-te3vp the Magistrate actually rolled his eyes at the prosecutor. It was classic.
That allways struck me as odd with all of that, especially knives… you could walk in any number of stores and buy a double edge knife, but the moment you walked out of the store with it… you could get a UCW charge. Glad Texas finally deregulated all of that ( only a few years ago)
@@p99guyA surprising amount of laws are made with reasonably good intentions but zero thought about what said things are used for. Eg. a knife ban here in Denmark that effectively screwed with every tradecraft that regularly opens packaged goods (eg. masons, carpenters, construction workers of all kinds) because no politician realized that while using box-cutters etc. for work was still fine, *transporting* them was considered illegal since the roads are obviously public. Kinda hard to build a house or fix a roof if some of your tools can't be taken from the company to the build-site.
@@Zinras its true, laws are rarely made by those that have a real expertise in the given subject, nor are they completely thought though for unintended consequences.
I have a strange memory of clackers being considered deadly and banned. It is simply a string with metal balls at each end. A ring in the string halfway that allowed you to "clack".
Clackers were banned because they were made of ceramic and would eventually explode and shoot little fragments into the kids face after being clacked too many times. It was a safety issue not a weapon issue. I was about twelve when those came and went in a single summer.
@@twodogsandapicnictable The ones I saw were made of solid plastic.
They were pretty effective as a weapon in Jojo's Part 2 😂
@@twodogsandapicnictablegoing back some years there mate I remember them in the early to mid 70s
It’s fucking hilarious that some states would have constitutional carry laws for guns but make certain knives n sword canes illegal. Im pro gun n pro knife..pro weapon in general, but I just think that ban logic is beyond idiotic.
I agree with you. I feel we should be able to carry in any state without a permit.
That got me thinking... and I suppose it's because of the wording in the constitution, where they say citizens may bear arms... meaning things that use gunpowder. So politicians doing what they do, controlling as much of our lives as they can, decided that blades were not arms.
The state I live in has absurdly complex laws limiting or banning cutlery, but it's no crime to openly carry around a firearm. Even a short, Scottish Sgian Dubh is prohibited. That's bonkers.
Mythbusters did a segment that showed Nunchaku are not as effective as one would think. I think the flexible middle killed a lot of the mass inertia and the hit wasn't as hard as a straight baton.
That’s because they used some cheap ones cause they are not suppose to flex at all.
@@Migazii Even good ones are objectively worse weapons than a plain staff of similar length.
I've trained with nunchakus for decades All the twirling around like a cheerleaders baton that you see in the movies or online is not how you actually fight with them. They generate enough force to break bones and can kill with a head strike.
@@Migaziiso, chains aren’t supposed to flex or move?
@@BeardedJustice This is true but it's harder to conceal a long staff, the nunchaku is basically a folded staff. But probably the collapsible baton is a better.
Leave it to government to take away a citizen's right to self defense.
its a toy. and a dangerous toy at that. get a proper weap if you want something for selfdefense
In Germany Nunchakus are banned because of the capability of strangling someone to death... In the shelter I have a bunch of ropes, around 2-3 meters (~6.5-10 ft) so yeah.... If I wanted to strangle someone to death, these would be much more practical than nunchakus
And if you want to struggle its better to cut the Nunchakuwood andchange the grip. OK, you cant hit after that but thats not the reason for the ban...I never met someone who use the N like a Garotte but as a twirling toy i met many many...
Wouldnt look near as cool though
The I can recollect, the local newspaper reported that New York lifted the ban on nunchucks. I’ve noticed that the majority of weapons bans tend to target items which are generally more effective as last ditch defensive weapons, more than anything else? Like, a collapsible baton, for instance, is more viably useful in being a better than ‘nothing at all’ equalizer in the advent of someone getting mugged or jumped, but probably not generally going to be first choice of weapons for someone intending to criminally use it offensively. Frankly, I think the heaviest, longest, brightest and most durable flashlight you can muster to comfortably carry in a side leg pocket is probably just as, or more effective than either, previously mentioned, and a whole lot more useful generally, otherwise, too.
Nunchackus are banned here in Germany as well; I had the luck to be able to train in another country with it and it is an awesome training for the upper body and of course your coordination. Here they were formerly called "Würgehölzer", literally Strangling Woods", which my father (police officer) back in the 90ies explained to me to be the reason for them being banned. The german law system had appearently seen them as a tool to only strangle people. Well... I could be wrong of course, but I'd still prefer a normal string or wire for that though 😂
Can you carry a pepper spray in Germany?
Yes it's allowed as long as it's labelled as an anti-animal tool.
Yes (i am german too but answer in english), the reason of ban is strangling. To own a N is strictly against the law, not only the using. Its a nice toy for to play but not that usefull against a serious and prepared attack. Every good stick is better. You dont believe? Hit a tree hard with a stick and then with a nunchaku, you will see and feel the difference. Fast arms will erase the swinging impact of an attacking Nunchaku, or: Go to a serious FMA or Krav Maga school near you and try to fight an Arnisador with a stick. After that you will use your N for the next campfire. Same with a Baseball Bat, nice against a scared and unexperienced victim but after a few lessons in FMA you never get scared about. You dont believe? When i had my own FMA group i told the beginners (sometimes young boys from TKD or big mouthed) to hit me with a bat, i promised 50 € if they can. Nobody can. Its beginners move in Modern Arnis. After that at first they were surprised and then they understand why its impossible to hit someone who knows the weak point of a bat attack.
@@drhkleinert8241 Yes, in general I agree upon the stilk being superior to the nunchuku, yet the tree example... I mean if you hit a tree with a stick it bounches back as well for most trees simply do not evade hits or move after being hit 😉 But I get your point of higher grades of controll over the weapon and, as said before, for various reasons (like grappling and controlling techniques, faster results in learning etc) I agree with your point of view. I am sorry to ask, but what stands the short FMA for? Filipino Martial Arts? Greetings
@@drhkleinert8241 Thanks for the detailed explanation. Its interesting that there are martial arts techniques to counter the use of N. However I have watched many self defense videos where they say if the other guy has some sharp blade, always run. I thought it might be the same for N. But I guess I was wrong !
Used to live in a neighborhood with loose, aggressive dogs. I was attacked on average, once a year. Used an expandable baton and the dogs seemed to immediately grasp the "reach" of the weapon and would stay out of range. Switching to nunchaku, I was able to hit several dogs. I believe it was because the dog estimated my "reach" to be only one of the legs of the nunchaku. And of course, my "reach" was more than twice an long. Later switched to pepper spray. Shot several dogs with pepper spray. I never was bit. My neighbors couldn't say that.
All loose aggressive dogs should be put down... regardless who owns them.
I went through that in North Charleston, South Carolina (1987), in the middle of a full-moon night. Nothing was there but swamps, alligators and Baptist churches, and believe me, those folks weren't saying any prayers for me. I was walking along the shoreline to my right, which was completely blocked by the shrubbery etc. and out from the left came these four regular dogs, barking, growling and moving towards me. I carried a plastic dagger at the time, I called it my 'Frequent Flyer', and I pulled that out and the dogs were NOT impressed. So I started acting very robotically, making these herky-jerky movements, and that did freak the dogs out but they always had that one dog that would try to circle around behind you. Not OK. So I'd abruptly swivel around to him and thrust the knife in his direction and he'd run back with the others. It took halting progress of about a city-block before they disappeared back into the black. I wish pepper spray existed back then.
@@AtomicExtremophile Nah, the owners should be put down. Dogs ain't do nothing wrong.
You have more patients then I would. I would have just shot them and took video footage in the aftermath showing no leach on the dog incase the owner tries to accuse. Not the dogs fault but you still have to protect yourself.
@@AtomicExtremophile Just need to get confiscated and taken to Dog Daddy or Cesar Milan ranch, not the dogs fault it's the owner's fault.
Weapon control is not about wapons, its about control
What a dumb statement.
Exactly. It’s about control.

We need to legalize all these weapons. Make mall ninjas great again!
A blackjack isn't just a "sack you fill with anything" Its usaully filled with lead fishing weights. I used to have one that was a spring one solid wieght at the end and would leave a deep dent in a wooden table. Could easily crack a skull.
The leather wrapped spring is usually referred to as a kosh I've still got mine from when I was a kid we used belt each other on the legs etc. For shits and giggles tbh they're surprisingly painful and I wouldn't want to be hit over the back of the head with it
In Australia, where everything is banned, rondel daggers and bollock daggers are banned (at least in NSW) but long swords are legal to own.
I have a long sword they are incredibly stabby.
Cue balls in socks and trolley poles use to work until they changed the plastic handle
@@chriswaters2327 I also have a long sword that is specialised for the stabby stabby. Fun fact, the NSW government was looking at banning swords, but the NSW Police advised against the ban as sword owners are not statistically significant in crime.
Australia? I wonder. I thought Germany has the toughest anti weapon laws... OK, its legal here to own a Gandalf Sword but its not legal to carry it on the street.
the guy hitting the tires could absolutely destroy that pretty boy who was twirling them around
The point of a weapon is to injure someone. The government does not have the right to tell you that they are the only people allowed to carry a weapon.
Many people feel the same way. That’s why people are standing up for their freedom to defend themselves.
I want nuke
Shuriken. They are banned in many countries because they are apparently super dangerous. But whilst nunchaku are at least deadly when used by a very skilled person, even a well thrown shuriken is more of a distraction or nuisance than a lethal weapon.
How so, it's like a throwing knife but it takes less skill to throw right?
Yes but the blades are often tiny and even knive throwing is overated
You don't understand. Shiruken does not kill by penetrating the target it hits or physically damaging it but by the means of inflicting deadly fear into your opponent and causing immediate heart attack. That is what makes it the most scary weapon of them all.
Nun chucks hurt like a mofo
There used be a TV series in Australia in the 1960s called Samurai, they would jump up 20 feet into trees backwards and other stuff. The most dramatic was multiple shuruken as a guy is running away, it would sound like a machine gun and a row of them would hit trees and stuff. When the actor of the character Shintaro visited Sydney he was surprised by the huge reception he got, the series was probably on the way out in Japan.
Maybe the lawmaker hit his own head too many times so he rightfully recognizes the threat a nunchaku poses to the wielder.
All of these weapons are legal in the US 🇺🇸
Nunchucks are to train your weapon dex and the skill is carried forward to better understand how to use a 3 section staff. Nunchuck itself is not a reliable weapon because it requires too much skill with tactical knowledge to use practically so don't bother.
The 3 section staff is maybe the hardest to learn weapon from all this ancient stuff. As a weapon completely useless today, too long and needs years and years of practise. They are banned in germany too...
@@drhkleinert8241 Emm. Actually 3 section staff is more practical and versatile than chunks because you can use it in 3 style for close or full reach, there are also light (ratan) to heavy (steel) versions. No, it's not the hardest it has less move sets than chucks, it's the stupid meteor hammer that's hardest to learn, probable use for bashing men holding behind shield walls or breaking large wooden doors when ram rods not available. What if your a wushu instructor and 3 section staff is one of the arts you teach? Get banned too?
When I was in Junior High School, I asked my mom to sew a pocket on the inside of all my jackets, so I can carry my Nunchuks to school. She was a seamstress, so she jumped right on it. That was soooo sweet!
Awesome!
You have a great mom. But hold on, did she know what you intended to carry in those pockets, though?
@@bmaxse Yes. I told her it was for putting mu nunchucks un. Only sge had no idea they were illegal to carry.
@@mistersmith3986 LOL nice. 👍🏼🤟🏼
No she didn't.
Nunchuku are the worst weapon. You're almost as likely to hit yourself as your opponent. Even if you do manage to hit your opponent, at that moment, you lose control of the striking stick because now it's bouncing off of your opponent to who know's what trajectory. It takes you a few moments to get the weapon back under control before you can use it again. Then there's also the fact that the striking power is actually LESS than if you just had a solid stick of the same diameter. Why? Because of the chain, you can't put your own body weight/momentum behind the strike. You can add force by making it swing as fast as you can, but the upward force is limited by the mass of the single stick you strike with. You can't put weight behind it.
Its crazy the U.S. bans any of those weapons when firearms are legal and much more dangerous
the last sentence is hilarious, that means Bruce Lee is a ninja turtle🤣
Soon one’s fists and feet will be illegal…………………………
Definitely if the country keeps voting Democrat
in switzerland you can/must own an assault riffle but a kubotan us forbidden
us: you can buy a 50 cal sniper rifle also us: a blackjack? slow down there, thats dangerous
Here in Canada you can buy and carry collapsible batons, sword canes and sap gloves. And you can purchase Balisongs. And you can also buy rubber, practice Nunchaku.
And enough drugs to never have to worry about a thing again.
You can not buy balisongs with real blades, only blunt practice knives.
@@tamashi4242 Wrong. I have purchased REAL Balisongs here in Canada. In the past year.
@hardrock1826 literally where? Because balisongs are legally classified as centrifugal knives in canada and are thus illegal. unless, of course, your balisong can't open via centrifugal force, but that kinda defeats the point of having one now doesn't it.
@@tamashi4242 These are real. Bought one off a supplier in a small town in Ontario. And if you were paying attention. Amazon was selling them within the past two years along with push daggers.
I own a few telescopic batons, brass knuckles, nunchukus, a slap jack, a few auto opening knives, a cane sword, and many other weapons that are illegal in many other places, none of which are illegal in the state of Texas, though. I'm very well trained in the batons and nunchukus because I was required to be in order to carry them as my intermediate weapon as a cop, but Texas is pretty lenient on most weapons that aren't firearms, and they're pretty lenient on those as well.
As it should be.
They are lenient on firearms to as far as I can tell lol
When I saw the blackjack, I was like what a great weapon for a woman. They look like plain old straps on a purse. Imagine a rapist coming up behind a chick then catching a 12 - 6 on the dome.
I've always wanted to KO someone with a slap jack. If I did that here in California I'd probably have to pay 100k and rot in jail for years lol.
Wyoming has constitutional carry. You can carry any weapon you can legally possess. I regularly have a butterfly knife , a sword and nunchucks just because I can. Everyone here has guns but ppl get weird about a dude with a sword even though its totally legal.
Nunchako are not banned because they are dangerous: only very few people with long training time can master it and become dangerous. The real problem is that people keep hurting themselves, so a measure is needed to keep those doomba55es from filling the ER continuously XD
The reason Nunchaku were banned, as far as I was told is because you can get them around the neck and use the handles to compress and crush the larynx and cervical vertebrae, or from the sides use them to compress the jugular and carotid.
That's dumb, you can do that with a bit rope or a stick
It's all about taking the natural right to defend ourselves and family in order to make us dependent on government for our well-being. I'm grateful for my US constitutional right to keep and bear arms.
Well put. Best comment on here. 👍🏻👍🏻🤟🏼🤟🏼 And/but, that's also why our constitution/2A is constantly and fiercely being attacked, and some criminal states blatantly violate it, because it stands in the way of their tyrannical control/enslavement of the people.
We have to keep fighting and stop voting Democrat to keep these rights.
A constitution means diddly squat if it doesn't have people defending it with lethal force. Weapons are already restricted in many parts of the US. Thinking the courts are on your side is foolish.
@@EresirThe1stWhen it comes to the rule of law, I totally agree with you. Everything decent in this world is on a slippery slope along with constitutional Rights. Hearts, minds, and actions are easily steered in the wrong direction without community. The true village type community hardly exists anymore. The institutions like Public schools and social media have replaced that. Now here we are.
It's funny how batons are illegal but single-bladed knives are not.
Depends on the state
In my state none of the weapons on this list are illegal let alone there being regulations on them.
gauntlets and boxing gloves are way more dangerous than machetes and knives Since they could have a better chance to grab or resist stun batons
Many sword canes are twist offs, which makes fighting with them a bit difficult. Aristocrat says, "Wait, I have to unscrew my sword cane. Then, you can attack me."
Time to ban hammers ,mallets ,rolling pins ,screwdrivers, kitchen knives, chainsaws ,jack handles,brooms ,pickaxe handles ,fence posts ,long nails ,coat hangers ,knitting needles ,fishing rods ,garden forks ,cricket bats, golf clubs ,bicycle pumps , nail guns ,circular saws ,heavy books , and basically anything you can pick up .Fresh fruit " come on ,come at me with that banana!" ( Monty Python)
The only one I saw on this list that’s actually illegal is the ballistic knife.😂 the rest depend on the state you’re in. In fact I own 3 of the items on this list myself and they’re all legal in my state except the ballistic knife.
So basically ban a black jack but not a baseball bat? Also cane swords you can regularly buy in the United States I use to have a cold steel cane sword. It's just illegal to walk around with it in a lot of cities I believe. Numchucks or however you spell it you can buy in NY in a lot of stores just not in NYC that I know of.
A baseball bat is actually in a bit of a legal grey area, if it's intended to be used for self defense (aka as a weapon) it's actually illegal to have too. It's all about intent. An ex cop told me to keep a baseball glove and/or a baseball in my car with it so I can say that I had it for its intended purpose. That way, if I ever have to use it for self defense I can claim that I didn't carry it for that reason, have the ball and glove to help show that it was for playing baseball but when I needed it, it was what was available to me in the moment. Most cops probably aren't going to charge you for it unless they're just looking for a reason to arrest you and I doubt it would even hold up in court with the plausible deniability you'd have but still, if throwing 2 cheap items I already own into my back seat with it will save me from any potential hassle, it's worth doing imo.
@@Blunt_Man I was always told to keep a glove and balls in my vehicle as well but realistically they can't charge you with intent for having sporting equipment even if it's just the bat alone. There has to be a reason why because people who bat aren't gonna have a glove with them.
@@GiuseppeSimonetti 💯 really all comes down to just not snitching on yourself and realistically you're good. When I was a teenager around 20 years ago, I had a friend actually admit during a traffic stop that the bat in his car was for self defense because he didn't know that was illegal. Luckily, the cop just wanted to make sure he wasn't playing mailbox baseball and didn't care but that's about the only scenario where I could *maybe* see someone actually being arrested. It would have to be a pretty boring department cuz most cops have a lot better things to do than arrest people just for having something that could potentially be used as a weapon, even if they stupidly admit that's what it's for lol
@@Blunt_Man Well I live in Suffolk county you can say I'm using this for self defense and they'll be like "Welp it's better then a gun or another shooting". It's dangerous out here people you know die every week in shootings.
It's ridiculous for the US to ban any weapon when owning and carrying a gun is legal.
I live in Texas, none of those weapons are banned here. I even have a friend who carries a collapsible baton for self defense. Back in 2017 they passed a law removing many weapon restrictions. I can now walk out in public with my sword on my side if I so desire.(I practice HEMA) And that's not even mentioning that we're also one of the most gun friendly states too. So, criminals should think twice before assaulting people here!
Everything in this video and more are legal to own and carry here in Texas. But man buns are not permitted.
LMAO. How about that purple blue green hair?
Its for your own good
Damn so weird. The Telescopic Baton is illegal in germany, but here in hamburg, germany, you can buy it at a lot of stores. Never bought one so I don't know if they're just decorative or not. But I remember when I was a teen around 13-17 years old, lots of friends from a certain friends grp had one. So the legality was always unclear for me ..
that is not true you are not allowed to own a flexible telescope batton and you not allowed to Carry a "Stiff one" in the public
Illegal to carry in France, but you can buy it and use it in your house, after that you will go to jail because how dare you defend your life and your loved one and not instead offered your wife to the burglar
...that´s BS - non-flex telescopic batons are totally legal all over Germany, you can buy them everywhere and you can legaly posses them. As a privat person, you are not allowed to carry them in public "action-ready" - you must put them in a locked case, bag etc....
It was originally used under Nazi rule,known as the Stahlruten ,or "Sapo" from the manifacturer. Those were spring batons,known to be lethal with a single strike.
In the theme of this video... When I deployed to Vietnam in 67, I brought my Sears camp hatchet. BUT had to register it as a weapon. Going into a war zone, I had to have paperwork for a camp hatchet?
A few facts: Bruce Lee said he prevers empty hand and in a real fight he wont use a Nunchaku. All this twirling MamboJambo he shows was only for the screen, and today it became a kind of gymnastics item, 100 % twirling and show but 0 % effectiveness. Thats why these "Experts" use thin and light Nunchakus you can move very fast and without the danger of self harming but they dont have enough impact for to kill a fly. Real Weapon Nunchaku are heavy and slow and cant be used as a twirling toy. A story my former grandmaster tolds us at seminar: Once he was in the Phillipines and two australian Nunchaku "Experts" (means tournament twirling champions) were there too and gets real wooden Nunchaku as gifts from the Filipino Martial Arts GM. So these "Experts" were ask for to show some tricks. They stratet to twirl and a few seconds later one was knocked out by his Nunchaku and the other one kneels down with a bloddy heady injury. These Champions never had a real Nunchaku in their hands before but were "Australian Nunchaku Champions"... In germany Nunchakus were banned bec as a "Strangle wood" (thats the original translation), not as a punching/hitting item. Its bec you can use the chain against the throat. Like a Garotte. In my decades of Martial Arts and esp in FMA where you get teached fight with and against weapons i learned that a Nunchaku or a telescope stick is only good against unexperienced and/or not really serious attackers. To defend against a TS is same like a normal stick or a light metalstick, its beginners program in Modern Arnis. The Nunchaku has many weak points and is not as effectife like a baton, you cant block properly or stab. Its a nice movie weapon but for real use you have to forget this show elements. I ask another FMA Grandmaster how to work against a Nunchaku (bec i was that impressed from Lee and as a kid i made Nunchaku and try to twirl, of course) and this 10th degree GM answers "Like a chain attack. Not like an attack with a stick." And i understand the system about. Does nobody ask themselve why no gangs,Antifa or arabs use Nunchaku when it is THAT usefull like in the movies? Because its NOT.
With that cane/sword, I'm going by the fact that a blade has been revealed is more than enough for potential attackers to think twice about committing crime. As for the Nunchaku, this should be at the top of the list of weapons that have been authorised by certain companies (martial arts schools and so on) even then it's use must be restricted, nothing 'cool' about getting hit, disabled or killed by it - worth noting.
Very true. My sensei refused to teach me ANY nunchaku postures...which led me to learn about them on my own. I went from rubber to wood w/ nylon, before finally settling in with a pair of maple speedchuks. And I believe THAT was what he intended. Thank you, sensei.
Real question. Do these bans affected criminals' adquisition prower in any significant way? Has any ban on similar devices done it? If anything to my belief seem to rule on favor of supply and demand in unregistered stores. Anyways. Criminals don't care.
This is what the gun community has been saying for years. Look at Mexico guns are illegal and the cartel is better armed than their countries military.
Look at murder rates by firearm in the EU and Australia before and after the big bans You had more mass shootings in the first three months of 2022 than the EU and Australia combined had between 2000 and 2022 So yes, bans can work Or just the murder rates in general lol
No. In fact the attacks and death by knifes rise and rise (esp by immigration of millions of young men who grew up in society and culture where knifes are a Man-Symbol and violence is a normal way for to get "Respect"), in germany its illegal to carry knifes in public over 12 cm (4,5 inch) and most knife attacks were done with kitchen knifes. And i cant remember that there was a problem with Nunchaku before they were banned. Throwing Stars ban is a joke nobody understands here. And today in germany, Austria and othe countrys the bad guys dont need Nunchaku bec they make trouble as a bunch of 5 up to 20 people. You dont need a Nunchaku or a Bat for to kill a victim with help from your 10 cousins and brothers.
The reason for the nunchucku ban is because they seem to be a simple weapon like a baseball bat, but one that most can’t wield, different from a sword in that way, but in the hands of a master, anyone that comes close to you, you snapping bones. True it’s unlike a gun or ranged weapon in anyway, it’s unconstitutional that they are banning guns, but there’s the hidden lethality there with the nunchucku, and the visual disincentive to engage. If your walking down the street w nunchucku, everyone should know your not one to be messed with. You wouldn’t be carrying those things if you didn’t know to defeat everyone you know with your hands. If someone’s trained in nunchucks, you know they are already a badass
Really the difference is between trained individuals, gangster individuals, and the people with the Need to carry weapons, and their ability in the moment and their ability with those weapons
The fun part is that all these can be beater by a stick, which is perfectly legal.
This is why I would never live in New York or California. Nunchaku was always a doorway for me to the world of Bruce Lee and martial. I wouldn't ever use it against a living thing, but I'm proud of my expertise, earned with the sacrifice of two lamp shades.
Two? Lightweight.🙃
weapon bans are a state by state thing in america, in the state i live in right now, tennessee, the law says we can carry any bladed weapon we want, concealed or open. also it would have been good to include the wasp injection knife
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety”
Most bans on melee weapons have more to do with public perception than they do with any extra danger. The idea that a spring-operated knife is somehow more dangerous than an old-fashioned lockback simply because it can be deployed more quickly, for instance. The vast majority of civilians don't know the first thing about knife-fighting, so either knife is equally dangerous (or equally useless, depending on how you're looking at it) in the hands of your average jagoff.
7:32 If I see someone with nunchaku, I'm going to laugh, not run.
Same
Its more funny when they use it in winter, with a big jacket and gloves on...
Nunchaku are definitely not banned here in America. Ive had several pairs threw out my entire life. From up north to down south I can walk the streets with them and openly practice using them in the fields or sidewalks. Once being pulled over and asked if I had any weapons. The cop was much more worried about the 6foot python hanging around my neck than he was about the chucks and sword I told him was in the back seat. In Hind sight , it's probably a good thing I did not mention the mini crossbow under my driver's seat
Oh they mentioned California bans them. Though I've lived from up north Indiana. Too down south Georgia with them. I have not been to the west coast
@@eastsideazskelad3093 appreciated !
They're banned here in NC.
@@itzdm0r3 duly noted !
Depends on state
You're not gonna find King Charles walking alone in a dark Manchester Alley on Saturday 3AM swinging his mom's cake slicer.
I'd reckon the only reason one would ban nunchuks is because it's so easy to injure yourself with it.
I wish i could learn to handle a nunchaku, i practice Muay Thai and is an amazing martial art, but i wish i could learn to handle some Asian weapons.
You have a great resource right here on KZhead. Start with a foam/nylon model and try out different katas until you find the right one for you. Your chosen art is indeed amazing. If you can condition for that, you are halfway there.
The ballistic knife was invented in the Soviet Union and not the U.S as stated here. the USSR gave their special forces these knives during the late 1970's :)
Yes..a known Spetsnaz weapon.
Practicing with nunchakus Will make you feel like you’ve been in the ring with Jackie Chan
I lost my Nun-Chucks from getting pulled over with a bad tail light on my bike. I got charged with having a 'dangerous weapon" even though my hand was in a cast. A super smart old German friend of ours asked them 1000 wild questions afterwards because it wasn't technically illegal.
I've never heard of a blackjack but would that make quite alot of people criminals just for dropping some nickels in a sock.
The tricky part is how your state writes up what a weapon is.
I'm pretty sure the ussr made the ballistic knife first
Blackjack: illegal Nunchaku: illegal Collapsing Baton: illegal Baseball Bat: this is fine
True plus , pickaxe handles , crow bars , kitchen knifes , Stanley Knifes , (screwdrivers & hammers, eg: Yorkshire Ripper) all get used more often.
At one time in the UK, I believe it was even illegal to show nunchaku being used on TV or in movies - so films like Enter the Dragon were not available on home video in its original format.
The USA is not the world
Only country that really matters in the world
@@mikemcgee5950 why do you still then use measument units times, when people married their cousins?

So the people who have nuclear warheads don’t want me to have a piece of modified farm equipment Sounds fair
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a nunchaku is a good guy with a nunchaku.
The best way to stop a good guy with a Nunchaku is to attack him seriously, or use a stick.
Because as a decent weapon, nunchucks are worse than a stick.
I think every kid should own nunchucks for a week. So they too can learn how easy it is to injure yourself with them.
When some weapons are legal cause they're lethal: Nunchaku Other lethal weapons (katana, and such blades): Are we a joke to you?
Nunchaku were banned because they were involved in a number of strangulation deaths, I believe. At least that's what I remember...
I use my 40+ year-old maple speedchuks for katas and in-home defense, should anyone be stupid enough to try defeating my Schlage showroom on both doors.
I don't understand why the USA would ban any of these, considering how easy it is to acquire a gun!
It's beyond idiocy that areas that allow you to keep fucking guns will also ban a leather pouch.
A weapon not mentioned in the Tonfa. The police type and the martial arts original. Back in the day, I ordered from Black Belt magazine this weapon called, " jutte ". I had two of those bad boys and used to bring them to school. Wish I never traded them for a set of sparkomatic 6x9s.
The Sap or blackjack IS banned in Canada, but the CN and CP Rail Police were exempt from that ban at least up until the late 80's. They may STILL be exempt but I don't know for certain. Clipping someone on the base of the skull was a fast and efficient means of rendering a person unconscious, BUT a slight miscalculation could lead to a lethal skull fracture, and it tales surprisingly little effort to achieve either effect. That and it's ease of concealment was the reason for the ban in Canada at least. The weighted "Monkey Fist" knot is another item classed along with the sap as a banned weapon in Canada. A friend of mine had a book on Nunchaku techniques for riot police. The book was published in the 70's and Unfortunately I don't recall what country it was from initially. I assume the Nunchaku were adopted by the riot police due to intimidation factor along with effectiveness as a baton.
Nunchaku is practical only if you wear a ninja turtle suit to protect yourself.
It's officially legal to own nunchucks in Arizona. On Friday, the state's Republican governor, Doug Ducey signed a bill removing nunchucks from a list of prohibited weapons that includes bombs, gun silencers and automatic firearms I now carry mine with me regularly.
bro using that baton like he is in a warzone fighting steroided super soldiers
The ballistic knife was a Russian innovation and issued by the Soviet Army. I have fired one that came from Afghanistan. What you called a blackjack is actually called a "flat sap". A blackjack has a round profile not flat. I know, I used to own both years ago. You forgot "sap gloves" which are lead filled gloves that are deadly when used on the head. Fighting with nunchuks is different than swinging them. That's why most people crack their own skulls trying to hit things. If you don't know how to do it, don't try.
The first guy i met on YT who knows the different between using Nunchaku and playing around with Nunchaku. And, haha, i dont know why but by this "leather paddles" i allways thing about Sadomaso Dungeon...
Seems like it's a pretty common thing for governments to ban weapons just to seem like they are doing something about crime while mostly ignoring it. Criminals don't care, but it sure does take away any possibility for a law abiding person to defend themselves.
Nunchaku used to be banned in Arizona a few years ago, but not for the reason you'd think. It was because they "could be used as a strangulation device." They eventually got rid of the ban, but it oddly took like 3 attempts to pass, even though everyone thought it was fucking stupid. Also, if you have the choice between a nice stick and chuks, USE STICK!!!
EVERY SINGLE ONE of these things you can buy on line, buy in ANY knife store here in North Carolina and over half of these i had before i was even 15. Using the term "illegal" is very misleading, as ALL of these things are NOT in fact "illegal" to own, your just not allowed to carry them on you while in public. But in your own home or on your own property, its perfectly legal. Hell, i know people that STILL carry a blackjack with them to this very day.
We truckies keep old wheel nuts tied on the end of a length of paracord, a kind of rudimentary blackjack. Only that thing doesn't knock you out, it'll stove your skull in. They're lethal.
None of these weapons are banned world wide, hell even in the US none of these weapons are banned, however only a few states have banned some of these weapons, but none of them are federally banned. I live in South Dakota and there is no regulations on the ownership or possession of any of these weapons, its the same in Texas.
i remember playing a lot with friend with nunchakus, from that i propably never saw them again, so weird
For honest and decent people, all weapons are ban, guns, rifles, knifes, chackis, etc, etc, but criminals carry everything they want....
My fists are illegal. The left one is called law. The right is called order.
I literally walk around and train in public with katanas and rope darts. And why do they sell real swords and tactical weapons on amazon, ebay, yet real nunchakus are banned. Makes no sense.
I had a pair of nunchaku that were made of some heavy wood. I used it as another fun workout for my forearms and for hand coordination and feel. Just diversifying my ability to coordinate my body, good forearm workout after a while, and I felt like Michaelangelo from the TMNT.
When a weapon becomes a fun, fascinating fidget, it gets banned.
Actually butterfly knives , gravity knives, double edged blades and brass knuckles can cause mayhem and injuries to the user .
Anything on your person in public in the UK that you cannot categorically prove isn't being used as a weapon is illegal. Saying this and that is banned in the UK is hardly newsworthy.
