I would carry a rock, it'd knock them out but not kill them.
That is an awesome idea. I shall carry a brick around me wherever I go now :ph34r:
We got taught self defence at school. I know two judo throws but I doubt I'd remember how to do them if I were to be attacked. The likelihood of them being in the correct position for me to do the moves is pretty unlikely too.

Just carry around a can of air freshener and a lighter. Works in the movies!
The resulting fire doesn't get hot enough to burn skin in most cases.


Carrying something around is just a bad idea, though. If you carry a knife, mace, whatever it's just going to make them more pissed unless you cause enough damage to permanently damage them. Mace only burns for about 15 seconds, and a knife stab is only really going to throw someone off for a few unless you hit something serious, so unless you run really fast . . .

I haven't used deodorant since I was 14 or so*, and never used the spray stuff, but if it's anything like hair spray, it should irritate the eyes well enough and long enough to allow you to get a head start if you want to run away or get in a good shot or three if you choose to fight.
The spray-can/lighter flamethrower thing might not burn cloth and such very well, but it could certainly scare somebody, and if directed at the face, might do well to send them running.
Raid hornet spray works the best, from my experience, shooting out a powerful stream up to 20 feet or more. :D
You can also make your own pepper spray fairly easily, and even make it stronger than the stuff you'd be able to buy if the UK didn't have such stupid laws.
Spray glue of some sort would probably also irritate the eyes considerably, as well as having the added bonus of possibly gluing the eyelids together or maybe even the hands to the face or something.
Even regular white craft glue like Elmer's mixed with water and squirted in the eyes is pretty damned painful (unless they've changed the recipe), which I can attest to, because some a-hole from up the street did it to me when I was 7 or 8.
You an also make your own taser-like stun gun cheaply and easily, using a transformer from any number of electronics items (such as a portable stereo, which is what I made my best one from in college), stepping up the power from a simple 3v AA battery to something that could probably kill if you did it right.. or wrong, depending on your goal.
Best to do some research on that one before testing, probably. :r
As far as knives and such, stabbing is probably not the way to go.. you'd likely be better off carrying a retractable box knife with a sharp new razor blade in it and slicing them, preferably across the neck, abdomen, or maybe the inner thigh.
Never seen it done, but I would think slicing them horizontally across the mouth, from cheek to cheek, would cause somebody to at least take a seriously long pause and rethink a few things.

I have a more sinister idea. Put a load of super glue into an air tight spray bottle, spray in assailant's eyes, and sit back and laugh :D

If you're going to go the glue route, in whatever form, I would highly suggest also carrying and following up with some glitter, preferably the holographic or phosphorescent stuff.

I got aftershave in a papercut when i was about 9, hurt like hell. Gives you the idea really.

Yeah, well for some bizarre reason, most aftershave is primarily alcohol (along with water), which is a pretty $##*ing stupid idea, considering when you shave you've just gotten done leaving thousands of tiny cuts in your skin that are almost guaranteed to be irritated by alcohol. :rolleyes:

A friend of mine always recommends using keys as a weapon.
Yep. I always do it for parking lots late at night.

Fortunately, I've never been in an actual fight outside of my dojang but perfecting a hook doesn't hurt either.

EDIT: Stupid grammar. -_-

What makes you think you can reach in your pocket, grab something, get it to eye level and spray without them doing something? Especially if they're already on top of you.

Isn't that what you'd have to do with a gun? Except you'd have to take it out of a). your holster, b). your sock or c). your pants and then if you're trying not to kill them you have to do a jack bauer and somehow aim in the perfect place, then shoot, without them doing anything.
