If I had a knife in my gym bag? This guy and 6 of his friends started coming to my gym. This kid hates me, I could take all of those kids (one on one) but not all 7. If I'm alone in the locker room with them I don't know what would happen. I'm not switching gyms either. Any other idea's welcome.

How much trouble would I get in...

school gym or what? Weapons can be taken away and used on you.
That would be a big mistake, my nephew did the same thing for the same reason and wound up getting in trouble.
They did nothing to the other guys.
It's a damned if you do damned if you don't world.

Unless you know how to use a knife, and arent afraid to kill someone.. then dont take it. Maybe do as Prince said, and get some mace. However, if you spray it in a small room or confined quarters, it will get you too.
Are you afraid of an "American History-X shower scene scenario"? LOL

No, it's a regular gym. I figure no one would mess with a guy that has a 12 inch knife. I wouldn't fight a guy if one of my friends might die.maniclion said:
Maybe I could bring a pipe or something. I couldn't get in trouble for having pipe.
I carry what I've dubbed my "Bitch-Be-Good stick." It's a retractable police-style steel baton. Came in handy once when a guy wanted to stop in the middle of the road and hold up traffic because he was drunk and thought he was a badass.
Just avoid going into the locker room while he's there, the best self defense move is to avoid confrontation all together. Do you need to go to the locker room at all, I never used a gym locker room. My gym trunks had zippable pockets for my ziplock bag of protein, house key and wallet and I carried a bottle that I filled with water at the fountain.

Dont try and use a knife to seem tougher... its always a bad idea.
The guy that lives in the apartment next door pulled a big kitched knife on some kids that were at a party in our building (the college kids had been turning off the electricity to the building). Anyways, dumb ass pulled a knife on them and they took it away and beat his ass pretty bad. There was a pool of blood about 5ft sq in the parking lot where they had left him bleeding.
A knife isnt that kinda tool. I'd recommend mace if you really feel like you need something, but either way if they start anything just tell the gym and if they keep it up report it to the police.

I have to use the locker room, if I don't I have to carry my coat and gym bag around, that would probably get the workers to ask why I don't use the locker room and if I said I don't want to get my ass kicked they would make it worse.maniclion said:

I agree, besides if he does use the knife on them he will get charged with assault. Self defense is hard to prove.
Who would start a fight 7 vs 1 that they can't win? Would that really be hard to prove, of course with some of the lawsuits I've seen lately I wouldn't be surprised.min0 lee said:
I don't understand why kids would just want to beat you up. If your minding your own business, why would they gang up on you?
I know this kid from last year at school, we had some problems. Long story.soxmuscle said:
Ditto to most everyone.
In one aspect, you should think of a knife like a gun.. Dont use it to intimidate someone, only pull it if you plan to kill them.. And of course, after you pull it, give them a chance to reconsider, lol.
Secondly: Unlike a gun, a knife wont intimidate somebody, lol. Ive had two incidents to see this happen, in both cases they took the 'Ill be a badass' route and just became more agressive,"You gonna stab me, bitch? Come on pussy, do it!" One got his ass kicked like in Eggs' story, the other folded and crawled off with the little pride he had left, lol.
Im going to support the pepperspray suggestion, but that baton would be better than a pipe
Now, If you really want a knife, Im going to suggest the KA-BAR, or the Seal Knife 2000. A bit pricey, but good to learn with until you can decide on the design to use for the custom knife/knives you'll make for yourself later.
Ok.. maybe thats just me

Learn some form of self defense and fuck up the biggest guy, or find out where they live and fuck them up one by one.
I've had years of self defense...but 7 guys... They are all about 5'8 130 pounds 11%BF execpt the one who I had problems with. He's like 5'6 180, very fat and weak. He got pinned under 135 for one rep. Didn't get it off his chest one inch. I'm not much bigger myself though, about 150 9% BF.min0 lee said:Learn some form of self defense and fuck up the biggest guy, or find out where they live and fuck them up one by one.
Fighting isnt about ninja skills. Its about who is willing to kick the other in the balls first.ihateschoolmt said:

The second I saw your name near the post, I thought,"Problem solved."
Dude no need to use a knife. Looks like Flex will take care of em for only $350...lol.
No but all joking set aside, ignore them, Its the safest way to go. The problem with the knife is, what if you pull the knife and and they just leave...you do your workout and they are waiting for you outside with a handgun. Just a possability.
They say all they want to you, words wont hurt you.
