Interesting to see that mall ninjas predate shopping malls

There's no safety, so you'd generally carry it on an empty chamber. It's also a bit hard to see on the original image, but there's a knife as well. The knife generally had dull sides and a sharp point, making it more of a stabbing weapon instead of a slicing one. You could use the knife on it's own, but it was more likely used in conjunction with the brass knuckles.

I'm having problems getting the embedded hyperlinked image for the knife to link properly, but you can see it here: https://one.nbstatic.fr/uploaded/20230613/10597042/thumbs/450h300f_00001_REVOLVER-COUP-DE-POING-POIGNARD-dit-APACHE-BREVETE-J.-DELEAXHE-ou-DELHAXHE---PISTOLET-SORTIE-DE-BAL.jpg

Would be great for an unarmed build in a Fallout: New Vegas mod. Also would be great for an action anime character's weapon.

It’s the same concept as Yang in rwby’s weapon

I just looked it up and yeah that's what I had in mind! Also, fun fight scenes with that weapon.
