[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 1422113, member: 18"] But did it DISABLE that body part during the conflict? That is the issue. Surely we can cut arteries and tendons. But we must be able to DISABLE not just cut. Also, have you had many occasions to see the weapon used to do the cutting? If so, it runs contrary to my conversations with most ER physicians but it is not my area of expertise. When I have seen disabling cuts of large muscle groups it has always been with a small sword rather than a folding knife. Either way, my position is not that it CAN'T happen but rather it is most liekly not going to happen and those interested in personal protection with a knife are better off with a point driven methodology than an edge driven one.
