I wonder if this brass ever kicked a$$.

Outdated now. No one brings brass knuckles to a gun fight.

WT, those are legal to possess in Mass., but apparently
you can not carry them around with you.

 

[dirtlooter]

pretty cool and fist fights still break out around here. I knew one person that used a roll of rolled up dimes to help give him an edge. makes you wonder who had them and why

Never know. Like Kray said, these days they bring the guns.

I bought or traded for a set of those when I was in JR high. I don't remember what I paid or traded for but I was a poor child and didn't have much to spend or trade so they must have been cheap. Mine looked just like the brass set you found but I believe mine were iron. I was in high school getting drunk at my house with some friends. I decided I'd show them to a friend and he got offended and came at me. I had to defend myself and ended up hitting him, open handed. I was just trying to stop him from either pushing me down or worse. (again, we were drunk) It was the end of the straight part that would be in your palm if you made a fist that made contact with his face. He got pissed and left. I wasn't happy about the situation and chucked them into the field next to my house. I ended up having to take a punch in the face the next time I saw him as word on the streets is that he wanted to kill me. I never have went to look for them and am pretty sure I could find them as the field is the same.
Anyway, this is an example of why a set might be "misplaced".

HH ALL

I found a set in one of my hotel rooms when I was managing hotels. I’ve found some VERY strange things in hotel rooms over the years.

You need a permit to carry finger nail clippers in Massachusetts unfortunately

Cool find, and something you don't see everyday. My dad had one that was almost exactly match to yours and I remember him telling me they were WWI vintage.

 

[jewelerguy]

cool find. My Grandfather was a deputy sheriff in Garvin County, OK back in the 1920's. Besides his sidearm, he also carried a set of knucks. Must have been pretty rowdy back then

Best way I know of to break your hand. Your finger bones end up
between the dimes and the dudes skull. Oh, you'll knock the shiznit
out of someone, but it comes at a price.
