  I keep a pitchfork handy as a wall decoration but I live in an apartment. It is my reminder of the need to fight back in the class war.

    I live in a house in San Diego. I have a pitchfork, easiest way to spread mulch.

    The crossbow is for defense.

      I wonder if a repeating crossbow counts as an automatic weapon for the purposes of law.

      I’m pretty sure the automatic crossbow was just a party trick and never actually deployed in battle.

  Swords look cooler. Almost no one used a sword on the battle field throughout history. Everyone used pole arms of some sort. But swords seem cool, so get much more attention.

    The Japanese used katanas as their daily carry weapon of choice. In fact, samurai would carry two swords with them!

    However they had a very low crime rate. Ironic.

      But not on the battlefield, they’d use naginata or something like it for that.

      For many it was very much ceremonial and status symbol to carry them though and the wakisashi was more or less never used at all.
