If you’re gonna use a sword that weighs the same as a loaf of bread, why not just use a baguette? 🤷🏻♂️
so you are telling me yeeting a claymore and a baby require the same effort?
No, because throwability is influenced by rigidity. A live baby would be all floppy.
Maybe an embalmed one though?
what if you yeet like olympics hammer throwers and let rotation take care of unrigidity?
Drive me closer, I want to stab them with my cat!

Also a claymore is about 5 lbs
Bottled milk in those containers where I am is more like 2kg, being a 2L bottle, so that was a weird spot to see that.
1 litre jugs of milk are 2 litres where you are? That’s wild
That picture isn’t clear enough to see the writing, 1L jugs don’t exist where I am. That shape is exclusive to 2L jugs, because 1L are in rectangle cardboard cartons and don’t have a handle.
Such is life in metric countries.
I’d say wielding a baby is more effective to get your point across than trying to swing an 8lb sword.
Obviously the weight distribution is different but my chain bike lock is just under 9 pounds. Legitimately would be my go to self defence weapon cause it’s horrifying once you start swinging it.
The longsword second from the bottom seems pretty heavy for that profile tbh. Montante/Zweihänder (last one) is also on the upper end of usable weight. Bordering on ceremonial/parade sword
Montante where definitely used for more than just ceremonial/ threatening looking guards or housecarl. But yes because of their size they were used almost more like a spear.
They’re saying it’s very heavy for a Montante, normal ones were lighter. Extremely heavy swords were often reserved to parade, where style was more important than function
The can of chili should be a can of beans, obviously. Other than that, good chart!
What’s everyone’s EDC?
Chilli is more than most Americans will ever need from a blade.
My city commune recently forbade concealed carry, smh.
Then carry openly and proud. No need to hide your beauty
Not too self: don’t bring a cutlass to rapier fight.
Or just get some cans of soup. You know. For your family.
Just bring a polearm, and laugh at all of these
