    im a biig fan of a tube sock filled with small change. if you get trapped in a scrum, just pull it out of your coat pocket and swing for the fences. also comes in handy on laundry day . also if you take a beer can and crush it so it has a pointy end, its pretty useful for jabbing at eyes and throats.

    Damn forgot this one - take bicycle spoke, sharpen the end and embed it in a sawn off broom handle so that about 7-8 inches protrudes.

    Extremely useful for pokng holes in people - if you want to be very sneaky drill a hole in another bit of broom handle to form a scabbard - nasty man looks at you carrying what appears to be a bit of broom and the next minutes has a lung punctured.

    Yes I had a VERY misspent youth.

    I've allways thought these would be particualy effective.

    variants include different stuff in the sock (snooker ball, coke cans, soap, fishing weights.)

    you can also get a leather change pouch which does a simmilar job, and is more beliveable as something useable if the police decide you look like you need searching.

    bandanas also make good bases for improvised weapons. roll em up with a weight inside, or roll the bandana and put it through the hasp of a padlock. grab the tail ends of the bandana and swing......
    before anyone starts: I am not a soldier, and never have been
    I am not a cadet, and never have been
    I currently have no intention to join the regular army (although I'm not ruling out TA)

    I do have an interest in all things millitary (purely academic) and a deep respect for all those who have and do serve.
    I say all of this now, in case of future waltish behaviour (I have previous in this regard)

    Kitchen and sink plug, joined by a piece of string to form a bolo, launched from a CO2 fire extinguisher funnel. Proven to take out a cyclist at 30 paces.

    Crow scarer booby trap, based on a flashbulb and clothes peg. Perfect for booby trapping lockers.

    Bolt bombs - to get everyone moving on the playground.

    Lighter fluid blast incendiary - those rabbits were asking for it!

    5 Pints fuel air explosive - for when the games hut clearly deserves it.

    Ah - the happy days of school! And then I got a real job and someone actually paid me to blow things up - how lucky was I?
    Front sight, press!

    One of the old Nokia phones, the ones the size of bricks. Smash the bottom end of that in to someone's head and they would be bleeding in no time, or even out for the count.
    It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

    that kind of thing allways makes me wonder.
    stuff like places in america where people can legaly walk around with guns so long as they have a licence, but if they've got a knife longer than 3 inches.....jail time.
    or places where metal knuckles (brass knuckes, although they are often not brass) are illegal, but plastic ones arn't.
