Today I was considering the best hold I could rapidally get on my keys for a defensive punch (having just been given a whole new set to take care of at work) when I looked at the light aluminium caribina that attaches my keys to my belt loop, and I had a revelation.
Depending on sizing, a caribina would make an absolutely excellent improvised 'single knuck'. I tested my theory by quickly unhooking it and popping it across the index finger in one movement and then punched an old door. Said door came off with a nasty dent, and my fist was unharmed.
So this got me thinking, what if you went a step further and designed a knuck that was an integral component of the caribina, and hence not noticeable as a weapon?
Any ideas on design improvements here?
