I had a guy in the Dominican with a machete, pissed at me because he rear ended my car and took off. I had the urge to chase his piece of shit car down and force him off the road.
He got out of his car with a machete, and I had left my 12 ga pump in my car, I was smiling at him and told him I didn't want to fight him. I just wanted to know who he was so he could pay for any damage he did to my car. He was yelling and swearing at me walking to me,telling me he was going to kill me. I reached under my shirt and pulled out my 11.5" Bowie knife and told him let's get it on.
He dropped the machete, and he started to apologize and his whole family started begging me not to kill him.
My game plan, was to close with him, so to limit his ability to use that big ass machete. I was actually wishing I had the 6" Fairbairn Applegate instead of the Bowie. But it all worked out.
Has several times a knife worked to my benefit in Africa
