POCKET FIELD GUIDE [EPUB ebook] 
Urban Survival Weapons

This guide is a foray into an area of pure personal interest to me—the world of makeshift weaponry.  With most of the “weapons” in this book straddling the line between fantastical and practical, I really struggled with what to title this small collection/discussion of makeshift, (okay, maniacal) mostly urban weaponry.  Other than in the movies, I sincerely doubt anyone would find the need to make or use any of these diabolical deliverers of misfortune.  Nevertheless, it’s a crazy world we live in.  Regardless, making them or using them isn’t the point.  My reason for writing this guide is merely a gluttonous personal incursion into the world of makeshift weaponry from the oddest and least-likely of components.  Survival is, after all, using what’s available to make what you need.  And, if you have a bag of hard candy and need a prison-style shiv, then this is the guide you need.  

The following pages detail 22 weapons of self-defense made from every day household items.  The goal here is to concoct weaponry that could be made with minimal time and tools for the purpose of self-defense in the direst of circumstances.  In some cases, the visual alarm of the weapons alone could quite possibly persuade an attacker to reconsider their course of unholy action.
