How effective/practical would this be as an actual weapon? Maybe not for assassinations, but I think it could have some effectiveness as a self defence alternative to handguns

Good idea or great idea?

That shit is retarded. Why doesn't it deploy over your wrist instead of under so you can stab while punching and not cut your fingers up?

In most real life applications I've seen of it the blade is manipulated using a finger ring attached to fishing wire (or a similar durable string), so that the blade is revealed by pulling your palm/fingers away from it

Seems counter intuitive seeing how you can punch faster, harder and more naturally than palm checking someone.

I feel like with the typical ring activation system you would end up hurting yourself pretty easily. Plus you have to wear a faggot bracer to hide it properly.

Or just wear somethin with long sleeves

Wouldn't be too difficult to add some sort of safety mechanism I imagine
wait a minute we just had this thread
imho it'd be effective IF it can activate reliably and not pop out randomly while you're working, driving, petting your dog, etc. Achieving both seems difficult.
as an alternative you could strap an SOCP to your wrist. Use the finger ring to draw while you're doing your sneaky stuff. Paint it to blend in with your skin, clothing, or wrist watch.
