      Spears illegal …. I'd like to see that one come under carrying a concealed weapon …

      • +1

        What makes you think it needs to be concealable to be illegal?

    • Don't believe it is illegal in Victoria.

      Chinese Whip Spear is illegal which is like a flexible foldable spear. I am assuming this lesson is using the traditional spear which is a rod with a pointy tip….

    Interesting. Do you have kids martial art classes at the Maribyrnong location?

    • Hi Wills7 unfortunately we only have adult classes.

      Wills7 mate, put your kid into BJJ. Your kid will f up all the other kids. Unless if you're asking for yourself, in that case you'll f all the kids.

    I guess a good skill to learn for the Zombie Apocalypse and you're out of ammo???

    But what about a samurai sword though? I've seen enough episodes of The Walking Dead to know that's the shiznit for dropping the dead quickly and quietly.
    Impaling them on a spear doesn't stop those suckers, and god help you if there's more than one. Everyone knows its gotta be a head shot.

    I look forward to your 4 week course on "samurai sword zombie slaying for beginners", and the appropriate certificate of completion of course (so I can gain entry into some fallout shelter and need to show proof I can slide under the door that I am a sword master). Do you laminate the certificate?

    Plus vote for the free course :).

      Well it was a strong powerful black woman in TWD, ordinary men cannot handle it.

      • +1

        Hmm… you're probably right.

        Nun-chucks then. Chicks love nun-chucks.

    • Tommy Robinson could use a spear for protection right now.

    • +1

      clearyl you preference a chainsaw and then a samurai sword after that. A long spear is useless against he hoarde!

      • you preference a chainsaw and then a samurai sword after that

        Thanks, but Bruce Willis preferred the sword.

      • Rookie mistake. Too noisy and you need fuel, and you'll ALWAYS have a failure to start just at the wrong time.
        Cardio is always first preference. Then sword.
        But because I'm eating a family pack of salt and vinegar chips right now… the sword is definitely crucial to my survival.
        That, or become a strong powerful black woman's he-whore, who just happens to wield sword like no man!
        Plus I can carry stuff.

      you can practice at home with a wooden samurai sword for the Zombie Apoclaypse …. the kids do it regularly on Friday night sleep overs …. problem is the zombies also have wooden swords … figured it makes it fairer.

    • well, in my opinion, stab a zombie on head with a spear is much easier and safer than swing a sword face to face with zombie and try to chop down its head. what do you think? :P

    • +2

      The ends of these spears are pretty much swords, and you will learn to wield the spear as you would a sword.

      There's an amazing scene in the 2002 Jet Li film Hero which shows the versatility of the chinese spear in the hands of a master… and it's on youtube :)

    • Completley agree, a zombie stabbed with a spear will just continue shambling up the shaft and eat your brain.

      Which is why (as stated above) I go for the Bohemian earspoon (when will get a deal on these??)

        Handy if a young Samuel L Jackson tries to rob the shop, and you're looking to win the respect of the store owner so you can date his daughter.

        For those too young to get the reference:

      You're working at a McDowell's fast food restaurant, mopping up the floors with your buddy. Then a burglar who looks like Samuel L Jackson enters and you unscrew the mop head and go to work on the burglar's ass.

      • Exactly right!

        • Hold on, did you mention McDowell's before or after my comment?

          @kahn:

          Same time! I edited and you replied… I thought of it after re-reading :).
          Great minds :)

        • @kahn:

          McDowell …. from movie coming to America …during a hold up, the attendant cleaning the floor unscrews the head from the mop and uses the handle to take down the gunman.

        Shit! I had my comment drafted but by the time i clicked post you'd beat me to it!

        well played.. you win this round kahn.

    • Fair point but seeing as it's basically illegal to be prepared for attacks in Australia there won't be much else to hand. Well, unless you're a criminal.

      The reasoning is that the police are there but obviously if that was true then we wouldn't need to be prepared.

    • should watch some old school kungfu movies ~

      large bed sheet + water = spear

  • Can you stop maniacs in cars with this?
