I was watching a discussion of bladed weapons vs. impact weapons. Someone pointed out (correctly, in my view) that while bladed weapons had a strong psychological impact, they were very bad at stopping a fight in physiological terms and that impact weapons like blackjacks or saps were more effective on the physiological level.

1. NEVER rely upon a psychological stop. It is great if it happens but it is never a primary plan.
2. If an attacker wielding a knife shows you the knife for "psychological" effect........
He does not know how to use a knife.
