First things First

    This is the first posting on here. Honestly; not sure how long I will keep up with it, nor do I know how well it will go. Anyways let me start to say that one of the few things I obsess about that doesn't already have tens of thousands of blogs about already is my love for melee weapons. I feel that they are just awesome and they take a certain amount of skill and dexterity to wield.

    Melee weapons have been around for ages and are still being used today in modern day combat. At first one would think yeah right no one uses axes, maces or even swords in combat these days. Isn’t that how the saying goes: “…brought a knife to a gun fight”. Well yes, most of melee weapons are usually only for show or decoration now a days; but what about the trusty knife? It may not be used as a straight out right weapon in battles fought today; however, it is used as a tool.  A very handy tool at that cause I know if I was in a battle and had no ammo I would certainly take out my knife and use it. That is why in the military they teach hand tohand combat and how to defend yourself (if need be) without the use of a firearm. So if you got it use it! Just about anything could be considered a melee weapon.
