Going back to the classic stopping power discussion but in reverse: would you trust a long knife or thin sword to stop a soldier with a .38 in his hand with one blow?
Nope. Now if you have an expanding sword the answer might be different...
Wait, what were we talking about?
So you would attack a special target (likely a lower percentage hit) because your sword lacks.........wait for it.....stopping power!
To a weapon fighter, the wrist/weapon arm is not a special target at all. If anything, its one of the most common of targets, all over the world. Western swordplay, kenjutsu, Filipino martial arts etc.
It is a ridiculous scenario but I would never depend on a sword to "stop" anyone In the manner this thread is about. For that manner I don't think any weapon works that way except in video games.
Oh do stop. Wrist attacks are low percentage in unarmed MAs. People tend to think that way, erroneously, when you start talking about weapons. They take their empty hand knowledge and misapply it to weapons.Quote:
