I am training right now with the use of the Saraong and Malong, indonesian skirts. It is pretty awesome learning how to use clothing as weapons. It can be very practical also, purses can become deadly weapons using these techniques, as well as belts and skirts. What would be more embarrassing than getting beat up by a person that just got naked?

But, you see, I have a problem... I don't carry a purse... and I really don't see my wife really weilding her purse too well in a deadly situation. Sounds interesting, I've used some pretty interesting and effective means with using your belt, especially against knife attacks. However, without a decent warning or thought that it might become a conflict, it's not exactly the most advantegous item to use, if at all. Still though, it is fun and interesting and training to use such things can help you use others.. but you know that. What sort of aspects and techniques are you learning?

Well.. a purse can be used to lock joints, break bones and choke. It's very nasty when you actually do it. Using flexible material to choke with works so much faster than trying to choke a person empty handed. Also, there are many weapon disarming techniques that I'm learning with the clothing. Sometimes the clothing is just used as a distraction to the face in order to set-up a really hard kick.

very interesting subect.........i have a small amount in training in such things.
i find using pocket change for a distraction works quickly and is easily to retrieve in a stressful street situation.  because hands in pockets is a non threating position.

Of course any distraction that works is a good one. A good Kali, Silat practioner is able to use anything as a weapon, from keys to a shoe to a car antennae. Why fight hand to hand if you can find a weapon anywhere? It's silly to fight a person on equal ground, always have an advantage.

| Normal mundane things are more interesting. Hose (Garden), rope, scarf (for those of you in colder climates). Ever tried a takedown with a trackball or keyboard, how about a pair of PC speakers? |

Today, I trained some more with the Sarong. I learned how to tie people up, knock them out and kill with that Sarong. Learning how to use the Sarong easily modifies to scarves, purses and ties. It is amazing the amount of impact damage a Sarong can do, especially when wetted.

One thing that them Indonesian people to is not to fight "fair". They carry rocks and knived, and probably guns inside of their Sarong. The Sarong is very nasty when coupled with these hidden weapons. Just the rock is enough to send a person to the ground, permanently. I would hate to get hit with a rock being swung in a Sarong.
