1918 style trench knife. Double edge blade, brass knuckles, and a pointed pommel for head busting.What's not to like? Plus my dad's wooden handled riggers axe. Fairly sure it was made by Plumb. I tried but never did like a rubber handled hammer or axe.

M18A1 Claymores.

There isn't a better way to say, "You're screwed!"

What are you doing with them, using them as a blunt instrument? We are talking melee weapons. :)
Experience is the hardest kind of teacher, it gives the test 1st and the lesson after.

Courage is knowing it may hurt and doing it anyway.
Stupidity is the same.
This is why life is so hard.

M18A1 Claymores might do the trick.  Just remember: 

You only have power over people so long as you do not take everything away from them. But when you have robbed a man of everything, he is no longer in your power — he is free again.
