Quote: I'm headed back to Australia, a country that has banned or is in the process of banning anything that looks vaguely dangerous, or looks like it might be used to hurt someone else. No, I don't want to discus how crazy the Aussies are, I know that already.
My concern is: what can I keep for home defence when in Australia?
Same problem with fire arms. and other weapons here in Spain, i always keep a fixed blade at hand beside my bed (currently Muela scorpion 11" sharp blade) and my heavy tomahawk just in case
I also carry my Glock 81 field and survival knife any time, so it's another 6" fixed blade at hand (center knife in the pic)
I hope (and pray) i never get in the scenario of having to use them to deter home invasion, but i keep tools at hand.
It's better to have something else than your bare hands.
I agree with english, spear is not a good idea inside a house, cause lack of space (i.e my spear is about 6 feet long) better use it in open space to keep out of hand held weapon reach, even the tomahawk or a club need some space to swing it... Personally in a close quarter combat inside a house i would feel more confident with a knife cause i don't need much space to handle it, and may be cause i use them at work every day since ages and i'm used to it.
Anyway check local weapon laws, i.e. here in Spain need a license if knife blade is over 4", doubled edged are ilegal, military knives are ilegal, automatic folders are ilegal, but no problem if you carry an axe, or a club, or a sword or a battle mace
