    Interesting question Jaline. I wouldn't want to be involved in either situation but from a certain distance a knife is more dangerous than a gun. And I mean dangerous in the sense of your odds being higher for getting hit vs. actual damage done...

    I took some training in martial arts a few years ago where they recreated a demo they did with local law enforcement. Within a distance of 10 ft, it was quicker to pull out a knife and slash than it was to pull a gun out and shoot. That's still a pretty controlled senario but still, a knife is really just a dangerous up close.
