If there is one thing that Zelda has taught me, it's that fusing a knife to a bat is the ideal solution in this specific fight

Fuck it. I've changed my vote. Knife it is.

So what's more funny is that when I brought this up it was to all the dads at a three-year-old's birthday party.  Obviously everyone had an opinion.  Then one or two of the moms came around and was li

I'll take the bat all day. Swing on the side that they are holding the knife. If they try to block it their arm will break and it's likely they drop the knife. If they block it successfully I'll have enough reach on them that they won't have enough time to make a move with the knife before I can swing at them again.

The knife guys wanna argue using their head as a shield will get them in close.

Yeah good one!

That's not my argument, my argument is you will not get a solid shot on me with a bat.

Remember, this is a fight to the death. You really have one shot with the bat. Someone with a knife can lunge inside and out of the bat radius and you better not get it wrong with your swing or your ass will be stabbed. Once you swing that bat your weapon is pretty useless.

You could also absorb a less than solid bat hit and still get inside

First off, i concede that it is a totally valid strategy for the more athletic person to choose the knife to bait a less athletic opponent into over confidence.

But all things being equal... why does the knife get to pull distance and not the bat?

I think its knife and not particularly close.  Bat has one shot but then range advantage is neutralized.  You're not taking me out with one bat swing outside a clean shot to the head.  Lunge in and out, try and bait out a swing.  Worst case take one and then stab them repeatedly.

You can lay back with the bat for sure. But someone with the knife has the advantage of being able to freely move better. You ain't moving real well with a bat cocked back. You pretty much have to stand your ground.

Think about this......

You're holding a bat ready to swing. Someone is running towards you and stopping right outside the range. There is a mili-sec when you have to decide to swing, if too early you're wide open and getting stabbed. If you hesitate the person with the knife is inside the radius and the bat is also useless.
