I won't neccesarily accuse you of being"medieval" but when Ancient armies discovered projectile weapons, particularly those employing gunpowder, you can guess which side gained a decided advantage.

I think it was stated several posts ago"don't bring a knife to a gunfight". The only thing worse to bring to a gunfight is a stick(baseball bat, club,etc.). If a knife or sword or whatever bladed instrument was most effective the police and the military would be using them instead of the firearms they trust as their primary weapons.

If you're comfortable with a knife then go with it but don't take on someone with a gun unless you're a ninja. Then again, they were defeated by guns too.
