They're actually thicker than I'd like, but I suppose that's necessary for weight

I'm sure someone's going to post about why owning these is a terrible idea but they were ten bucks and cool to have imo

I know a couple people you can try those on.

I'm not one of them.

That would be one good reason to have brass knuckles (or in this case stainless steel)

Really though, if you saw my fuzzy paw IRL you probably would not say that.

So you can put them into the dishwasher after you're done.

I guess that's good.

Are you using a phonebook to support a beam that has a speaker on it?

Looks like a phonebook under a bed. The speaker is on the end of the bed.

And the knuckles are neat.

Gains would be correct, except that's my couch/futon.

From what I can tell you have to punch totally differently from how you normally would with these. If you try to use your proximal phalanges as a striking surface, the brace will not have anything behind it near where your pinkie and ring finger are.

Instead you have to punch sorta like you're going to strike with your second knuckles. Shaped that way, the brace rests solidly on the heel of your hand and the rest of your arm is in a straight line behind it.

Got a pair of those for my 19th birthday last year. They're fun. I used to carry them around with me until I started hit things and people while drunk. Had someone hit me with it while sober (not the face!)

They hurt.

Ideally when throwing a punch anyway, you wanna hit with the last three knuckles instead of the first two like most people tend to.

oh god how can this be there are differences between knuckles and fingers

"Your second knuckles" refers to the second knuckle on each finger counting away from the wrist.

The one between your proximal phalanges, which I mentioned, and the next bone up I can't fucking remember what it's called.

Had I meant anything else I probably would have named the fingers in question.
