The technological innovation of the 21st century has given rise to various igneous weapon designs. Hidden blade knives are one such weapon.
A hidden blade knife can come in a plethora of shapes and designs. A hidden blade is hidden thanks to clever cover of objects that are so mundane that no one would ever think of them as more than what they are. Here are three cool hidden blade knives that you can carry around everywhere with ease.
Pen Knife
Most people carry a pen wherever they go. Imagine that pen also becoming a handy tool to defend yourself against a sudden attack or that pen used as a letter opener? A pen knife with its hidden blade can accomplish all this.
On the outside a pen knife will look like an ordinary pen. You can actually write with it. But when the situation requires, you pull the top off and reveal the hidden blade lying within.
Most of these hidden blade knives come with a metal clip that makes it easy for you to pin the pen knife to your pocket and carry it unsuspiciously around. Some pen knives also come with a built in flashlight feature that increases the utility of these pen knives by not only supplying you with a hidden blade, but also making it easy for you to look while you are using that blade.
Knuckle Knife
Can you imagine a knife that you don't need to hold or carry with your fingers ever? Knuckle knife is the type of hidden blade knife that serves well this way.
This type of knife has a hidden blade with a handle shaped like a knuckle-with finger rings. Deploying the hidden blade then becomes an act of loading a fist for a punch. The handle is made of metal, mostly aluminum and can act like a typical brass knuckle.
The hidden blade in this folding knife then becomes an extra security aid added to the tool kit- a kit you carry in your knuckles.
So pack a punch without worrying about hurting your delicate fingers with the knuckle handle on this hidden blade knife.
If that gets the job done, good, otherwise you have a hidden blade as your second option.
Most folding knives of this type have a hidden blade around 4 inches long. It may be serrated or half serrated. A serration on the hidden blade is really useful.
You can stab with a fine edge or cut whatever you want or use the serration to create the most awful jagged cuts and peel the skin off your attacker without hurting your palm in the process.
Key Knife
So your keychain is jiggling with various keys. Keys for your car, keys for your house, keys for your cupboard. But perhaps the most useful key in that bunch can be a key with a hidden blade.
A hidden blade inside a normal 2.5 inches key sounds like stuff from James Bond movies. It actually isn't. It is a reality and you can own a hidden blade like this. This folding knife can serve you in many ways.
An almost 2 inches long stainless steel hidden blade is lying underneath the nail file. A full key may be as long as 4 inches but it will still look innocent enough to be passed on as a regular key.
The hidden blade is folded back inside the key and it will easily gel in with your other keys. You carry your key ring everywhere and this makes this hidden blade knife an ideal self defense weapon which is always by your side and looks so assuming that none in their right mind would ever guess what you have clunking amidst all your keys.
The hidden blade in a key knife may look delicate but it is as deadly as your ordinary knife blade. One stab may not be enough but multiple stabbing attacks can actually be lethal. So use it with precision and caution.
Final thoughts
You have seen a glimpse of what the world of hidden blade knives have to offer. Take your pick and use your hidden blade to perform a variety of tasks while it serves as your ultimate self defense weapon everywhere you go.
