To all you guys who spout about wearing numerous rings on your punchin hand....
Question...does the metal actually make a good mark on the opponent's face/body and inflict a lot of damage?
Question...doesn't the metal cut into your fingers just as much?
Reason I ask is the fact that once upon a time I hit a guy in the kisser while wearing a ring and gave him a heck of a bruise, but that sucking ring almost cut my finger tendon in half.
I think I would rather throw a punch and connect at the right time than rely on a piece of metal on the outside of my hand. At least that is the way I was taught to effectively throw a punch to inflict the most damage during my martial arts training.
Now..... back to regularly scheduled programming.

I have worn my college ring since 1971 and its a big sucker on my right hand. I now wear a divorce ring on my left hand, a skull, and it gets noticed quite a bit. I like jewelry and dont think its gay for a man but I do draw the line somewhere short of Mr. T. To me its always been a matter of personal taste and simple economics.
I have noticed a lot of people on this forum like to criticize others here for whatever they like or dont like. I just dont get why some here have to make a big production of it and be so much of an ******* as to what they think everyone ought to like or dislike. I probably have enough Harley T-shirts to open a store, I have several Harley leather jackets, some for wear, some for show. When I am not at the office wearing the mandatory "business casual" I am probably wearing something that says Harley on it. Does that make me gay or a loser? I really dont give a fu#k what people think of what I wear or why I wear it, its my personal decision. Whats with all the animosity? And, yes, when I ride I most likely have on a Harley T-shirt with or without a Harley denim cut, sometimes with chaps on sometimes not, always wearing fingerless gloves, heavy leather boots, jeans, a Harley belt complete with chain-drive wallet. I am a law-abiding "citizen" with a good job that makes me a good buck. I own my home, my cars, and my bikes. I have worn a Rolex for the last 23 years. Some would call me a RUB, some would call me a Poser, some would call me a dick. Both my ex-wives would call me a lot worse. Do I give a real ****? Hell no! I ride whenever I can as much as I can. I am not afraid to wrench on my bikes but prefer having experts/professionals do it when its beyond my capabilities. I guess I am tolerant of just about anybody who rides whatever they want to ride and wears whatever they want to wear. Is that to much to expect?
