I'm a few months into Krav Maga, 4x per week. I got into a situation in Indiana a year ago, where I thought I was going to have to go hands on. It was a weird situation, as the lady yelling at me was not the property owner or manager, my appointment was not with her, she wasn't telling me to leave, but she wasn't letting me get to the door to ring the bell, where I had an appointment. She was a total nutbag. When she yelled, "How about I just get my husband to kick your ass," a short, but burly man came out the door and looked like he was going to charge me. I was dressed professionally, had an ID badge on a lanyard around my neck, but I also had a pistol on my belt under my jacket and a big OTF knife clipped in my pocket. I ended up walking away without it getting physical, but it made me want to get some training on using my hands better before using an edged or projectile weapon.
