That's rather what I meant. Drawing a knife (especially a folding knife that takes a second to bring to bear) is extremely dangerous, all the more so if the attacker is already in an overpowering position.

Mace or tasers are quite a great deal safer (and more effective at incapacitating; stab wounds can be fought through with adrenaline.) though there's legality issues with those, too. I know tasers of any kind are illegal here. As are telescopic batons. x__x

Regardless, I very much hope she never needs it.
