knives & airsoft
often when i play airsoft with my buddies and so on i bring my little 5.5 inch pocket knife with me, it comes in great handy to me. for example i can make a hole in a thick bush for a sniper shot or ambush or dig myself a foothold in a steep wall or mabe just leave it on the ground to distract an enemy to get a shot. this is kindove a noobesh question as i am a noob :lol: but does anyone ever use knives at sacair games. are they even aloud. i searched under the key word knife and didn't find much except the CQBC incident which i still don't understand the knife killing ref so i would just want to be informed and not show up at a game with a unwanted item. :oops:. any help would be appreciated

I think they are fine so long as they are used as a tool: cutting tape, cutting zip ties, etc. Don't even think about pulling one out during a game for a knife kill, it'd be a quick way to a insta-ban. Heck, I'd he hesitant to even pull a knife out DURING a game.
My knife is with me everywhere.

i all ways have a knife on me for personal reasons. i never pull it out during a game, heck i even bury it under gear sometimes. You just never know when you'll need one.
Always have my overkill Benchmade folder on me.

umm was anyone there when some dude cut his hand open at the NAM field just screwing around? Someone ended up taking him into the E.R. and i thought at that moment the no knife rule went into effect.

I'm really not a big fan of rubber or rebated knives being used for kills in airsoft (despite being a huge fan of hand to hand violence) for the exact reasons wraith stated. As far as real stuff goes, I could careless what you carry, its not my business so long as you are not trying to cut someones lips off :D then its everyone business lol

lol PM me and we will work out the details. necromunda larp would rock
Most "knife kills" I've seen aren't realistic anyways. In the real world slashing techniques look cool and would make more of a psychological impact anyways due to all the blood. A true knife-kill would mean thrusting the end of the knife, with full body weight, into a vital organ of the target. And this would just be unsafe out there while airsofting, even with a rubber knife.
