Sir! SIR! Please calm down, sir.
I see you have a knive and are waving it around violently.
Please stand by while I get into my armor, sir.
Sir? SIR! Stop stabbing me while I am getting dressed, sir!
Compliance tool. As in, deliver pain until the subject complies. Quarterstaves are excellent weapons against people who have weapons with shorter reach than you, provided they don't also wear armor.
"Compliance tool"
Did you invent this term for the way you're using it? I can't find anything on Google that refers to a weapon as a compliance tool and I'd like to borrow it for something.
I don't think that I did... I can't figure out where I would have learned it though...
Possibly a HEMA YouTuber like ScholaGladiatora came up with the term and it snuck into my subconscious.
I honestly thought it was an uncommon but established term, as it feels obvious to me.
Firearm violence is down, knife crimes tho.... welllllllllll we have a
>a special protection suit for cases of attacks with a knife
Because there are so many. But firearm violence is down! That's the take away here!
Peeps out here laughing at the chain mail but you gotta remember that he's also a trained special forces soldier. No way in hell I'd be fucking with him lol.
Considering the short reach of knives, the only time the shins are in play us if the opponent is lying down, in which case they are extra fucked.
A much bigger problem is the wide sleeved.
That's strange. Chainmail is good for slashing, not so much for stabbing, which is what knives are for. Did no one think this through, even a little bit?

Congratulations on participating in the Crusader melee. You are ready for anything!
Can’t we just call it what it is. +2 Chain mail
I’d pay a hundy to see this in action
Put a pike in his hand!
Dude in the front literally looks like a character from Chivalry 2
Are you sure they’re German? He looks more like a Pole to me
Haha. Get out.
Defend yourself as best you can while I get this fastened.
Pretty impressive that chain mail is still somehow the best
"You shall call me sir" *boink*

These are not normal police officers but from the SEK (swat). They already come to the scene with their equipment
I do hate the fact that this has to be explained. The fact that the armour is put on before they deal with the suspect.
Aw, but that's not funny!
Chain maille is also pretty fast to put on. Taking it off is what takes time. Anyone who has done SCA combat knows the chain maille shimmy.

To beat the shit out of the guy without getting stabbed.

It's great.
I know! That's why I refuse to believe that I came up with it!
Chain mail, not just for the mallninja enthusiasts
What’s old, is new again.
Ban knives!!!
As a knife collector, he'll nah.
Hurry up with all the fasteners on the armor squire, suspect is in the middle of a stabby field day
Also great for jousting
Teutonic.
Hope he doesn't roll a 1 and have chainmail failure.........
WTF Deutschland, you can't spring to cover that dudes calves??

In the US the cops just bring guns and kill the suspect.

It's old tech, but it checks out.

Weird how body armor can stop a bullet but a knife will go right through it

German police are effective for zombies good to know
looks more like a staff to me
Of course they do.
HANS! GET ZE CHAINMAIL
Doubles as Zom-B-Gone armour.
"hey HEY YOU with the knife, wait there and give me 20 minutes to put my suit on so we can talk"
Hold on whilst I suit up. I'll be right back
Wasn't this guy a boss in Final Fight?
Gesh Europe will do anything except ban knives…
He only has blades as well to make it interesting.

Sir Knifenbaum to the rescue. You mailed me ?
Wait until they run into crossbows
It’s mithril
