I read with interest the description of the V-Gar system, with the manrikigarrote hidden inside the hollow belt, on the JSP Blade Rigger home page.
Such a device would prove significantly more effective than a knife of legal configuration in the hands of someone familiar with the nunchaku, or with improvised belt techniques. If it could be pulled from the belt quickly (any comments here?), that would add more to its effectiveness.
My biggest question about this system is legality of carry. Suppose one were stopped by a police officer while wearing the V-Gar system, and the officer was able to spot the manrikigarrotte. How would one explain the manrikigarrote (which would appear to a large extent to be a flailing and choking device, in addition to its potential for blocking and armlocks) to the officer in a manner that would emphasize a benign, non-weapon purpose for carrying it?
Thanks for any input.
