pyros Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Whilst in Thailand I saw these items for sale on the streets and in shops for sale. What is the situation owning these?????????????????? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> As far as i know it is legal in Thailand itself but illegal in most parts anywhere else in the world . I am not sure about using these objects , but i'm quite sure that it is like a handgun . You cannot use a handgun in Thailand unless you property is being tresspassed or something like that . I never saw a problem in Thailand with people having big knives in their pockets and walking across the street for exemple . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booma Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) Don't know if there illegal or not in LoS! But why would you need them unless you would use them. If you would use them, then you also need help! I have been sprayed with CS gas and it is not a pleasent experience, I thought i'd been sprayed with spray paint, I also thought I was going to get a kicking, so I ran off, head on, straight into the nearest tree, my face was a mess. I also meet a guy who had had his whole face peeled off so that they could rebuild his face after someone had whacked him with a knuckleduster. Read the article about the guy who has just been killed, would you be happy killing a man over a girl in a fit of rage. In this case it was knive, but the items you mention can kill, CS gas is classified as a firearm in my own country! Leave them on the shelve!

I spent an evening with a friend in the pub with one - we zapped each other all night - just a few bruises was all.

p_brownstone Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I regularly pass the stalls outside the Landmark Hotel, they have some really wicked looking weapons on open display. It always amazes me that this is allowed - with a Police Box just yards away too - yet if things like Sex Toys were on offer they would be confiscated and the seller arrested immediately.

A friend and his family were nearly involved in a high speed accident because of a stupid Thai truck driver doing a U turn, he got out of the car to approach the truck and the driver and passenger jumped out waving hammers about, my friend went back to the car and pulled out a spring cosh, the Thais then apoligised and quickly got back into there truck. If he didnt have the cosh maybe they would have beaten him to death in front of his family, because they 'can't lose face'. Nearly every Thai I know has a weapon in whatever vehical they have. In a country where if you get in a problem the solution is to kill or lose face, I'd say its best to have some sort of defense the tree was just unlucky to be in my way as I tried to FLEE the scene.

carlthailand Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 My old man was a London Bobby for years. As most poms would know they don't carry a gun. My Dad went on to set up an investigation company and cash carrying company in Oz. He always told me "you know the problem when you carry a weapon is that it can be taken away from you and used against you." I still believe that to be the case.

p_brownstone Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 .............he got out of the car to approach the truck and the driver and passenger jumped out waving hammers about What was the point of your friend getting out of his car - absolutely asking for trouble! It's a Truck driver for heavens sake; did your friend expect to be able to remonstrate - even communicate - with him in any way but a physical one??? Rule Number 1 in Thailand is avoid a confrontation - and certainly DO NOT initiate one. I have lived over 30 years in Thailand, and the only time I have ever felt physically threatened was when confronted by a couple of US MP's in an upcountry hotel when - because of my job at the time - I happened to be carrying a gun. That experience convinced me that weapons, in a civilian situation, are definitely more dangerous than helpful. That said, it still amazes me that in Thailand a 9" K-Bar is considered OK to offer for sale but a 9" Dildo will get you arrested! Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A car, motorbike, tuk tuk, friend, pocket, could all be seconds away. I should've been a bit clearer. Your friend could've just got lucky. Two guys with hammers, one with cosh, my money would be on the hammers, but who knows. You sure your friend hadn't started shouting at these guys to make them loose face in the first place, you say they nearly caused the accident. But point taken. Reminds me of a time with a pile of coconuts and a taxi driver, but thats another story. the tree was just unlucky to be in my way as I tried to FLEE the scene. Yes, a bit embarrassing, but if you knew this guy you wouldn't have of waited around for the boot or worse, especially not being able to see jack. Shortly after hitting the deck I heard his car door shut and he drove off, probably in fits that i'd done his job for him, maybe it was a good thing to do, I certainly wasn't in a winning position. CS gas is naughty stuff even though it clears up fairly quickly and doesn't scar, it f******g hurts, it burns like crazy for the first hour or so. It can still blind you if your unlucky. I looked like Adam Ant for the next couple of days with a big red stripe across my eyes/nose in addition to big grazes on my forehead and cheek.

Thaiboxer Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 The "seunack meu" or brass kunckles (knuckle dusters for your Brits:) are offered just about anywhere but I think you're not allowed to carry them. Don't see why it would be a problem to possess them...I once had a pair of these "paper weights" in Florida which is perfectly legal; they stayed at home. Brass kunckles wouldn't be a very efficient weapon since they're awkward to deploy in a tough situation and you have to get very close to your opponent. I would go for either a blackjack (springy, leather covered club with a cylindrical lead weight at the end) or a telescoping baton..that way you may have a chance against somebody with a knife or brass knuckles. I think it's legal to carry pocket knives unless they're huge (something with a 4" or shorter blade should be ok) or unless they're switchblades. Pepper spray would be terrible on a windy day...you could end up looking like this afterwards: Chatuchak Market has good selection of weird looking knives and other weapons if you're interested. Most would only be good as collector's items...to big/wild looking to be carrying on the street. As another poster has said, there is always the chance your attacker may take your weapon away from you and then you're in trouble.

Sad fact is that all your artificial, Dojo learnt, “skills” are completely useless in a real life situation; I recall about 20 years ago a Korean Tae Kwan Do Instructor – who held the equivalent level of a 3rd Dan in Judo – was killed in a brawl in a Patpong bar ……… by a Thai waiter using a broken beer bottle.

booma Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I feel safer anywhere in Los than I do anywhere in UK, and I don't carry weapons in the UK. Get a good Bhudda around your neck (this must be given by a Thai) and that should protect you more than any weapon would. Mine is especially good for protection against knive wounds, it's from a temple in North Bangkok, Leung Bour bin (or something like that) is the top monks name, he'll give you a bamboo tattoo of a Tiger that will give you more protection if you so desire! I was given this Bhudda amulet by a friend in Bkk and then proceeded to find out more about it during my travels. fascinating. Some places I went Thai's I didn''t even know were coming to me and asking to see my Bhudda. All said 'ahh very goooood, very lucky' upon seeing it! I am very grateful to my friend for giving it to me! It was also good for detecting katoey's :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
