The Garrote
Continuing my scholarship in the odds and ends of Alternative Force....
The garrote's constantly being referenced as an improvised weapon, we see it in movies all the time, and the concealability presents much interest in it. But what are the realities behind the weapon? Does it have any self-defense applications? Is there any way to practically deploy it except by stealth, at the neck, and from behind? Is there any defense (before/after deployed)? Is thinner/heavier/serrated/smooth wire better, why? Are one finger garrotes practical? Does anyone really train in the garrote?
