"In under a second I had my knife out, extended, and within centimeters of his throaght."
Under a second? You sure about the time elapsed here? Hand into pocket, grab knife, hand out of pocket, deploy knife blade?
"I was ready to deliver a lethal blow, and would enjoy it SO much. But then my concience kicked in."
A lethal blow, with a 5" blade? 'Just like that'? Where'd your proficiency come from exactly?
Why would you 'enjoy it so much'?
As for your conscience kicking in, you must be a wired-in-the-brain killer. In the midst of a 2-on-1, both guys bigger than you, both islanders (the rough-tough types are uniformly nasty), you with a deployed blade an inch from one of their throats (and he just stood there, huh? didn't jump back, jump and tackle you, etc.?), and some non-caveman-vs.-sabertooth higher brain function actually takes control of the show for a few seconds? Kid, you're a replicant.
"knowing that while I would have NO problems leaving them both unconcious"
The 'knowing' has me a little worried. Especially for a 2d year judo student.
"I might just get annoyed enough to USE the knife"
So your conscience has it under control when the knife is out, and you're all set to kill the dude, but you're worried that once it's back in your pocket, with both of them out of the fight, you might pull it again and get all chechen on their asses?
I'd say don't go USAF. I wouldn't want you dumping a 500 lb.'r on a bunch of dead jihaddis because they shot their AKs at your jet...while I'm busy poking around amongst them.
I mean I know Eagl is a whoopeeed Dyed-in-the-wool
Killer, be he's a Professional and I don't think there's an ounce of chechen in him.
(Heya Eagl

"Id swear I felt a rib crack"
Tell me, what exactly is the sensation of 'feeling a rib crack' when you kick a guy while you are wearing shoes?
"A quick slash to his throaght, and plunge it into his back... he'll be no concern and it will be so much fun!"
A quick slash...to his throat...with a 5" folder. A plunge into his back...with a 5" folder. Someone get on the phone with the knife design guys. They are putting a few un-needed extra inches on all those combat/fighting knives.
Again with the 'fun' comment. You are a genetic killer I guess. I know a guy who has had to actually kill someone with his hands within the last few years. He had over 100+ lbs. of muscle on his enemy (and that's a low-side guesstimate), far superior training, had been in combat numerous times before it happened, and when he was giving me the scoop, 'fun' was about the furthest thing from his tone of voice.
Ok, all slagging aside...you don't know me from Adam. And you're nowhere close to that POS voss. You're a kid who made up a story about a fight, to make you look like a badass. You're 15? No harm no foul.
I am worried about your attitude though. Let me explain why.
When I was 15-16, I gurantee I would have kicked your bellybutton 6 ways from Sunday. I fought full contact, had a very strong boxing background, I (thought) 'knew' I was good, and it felt good. I fought all the time - on the mats, and in the ring.
And then I ran across some real street kids, and did knock one of them out (which surprised them, because I was really drunk, and stupid because of it, and stumbled on them breaking the law, and was too f*cking clueless to read all the signs they gave me to "F*cking leave now, drunk stupid rich white boy"), and then the oldest of them
did have a knife to my throat after I'd been tackled and pinned by 3 or 4 others...
AND
...they had me cold. My clueless non-streetwise friends had cleared the alley, had no clue I wasn't with them anymore, and the oldest of the street fighter kids (he was probably 22? We were all 17 and therefore invincible) had this knife to my throat, I was helpless, and he didn't kill me. Told the others "Let him go and let's get the f*ck outa here".
So take it from me, your attitude can get you killed. I had more skills, and more muscle to back mine up, and my attitude was more "I am a badass because I fight more than anyone I know and I do it well" as opposed to your "I need to make people think I am a badass" and I still wound up pinned with a knife to my throat in a dark space between buildings off of El Camino Real. I swear to the gods that guy is one of the top 3 people I'd like to meet again, because that's the only time in my life that someone hostile has had me 'dead to rights' and they basically opted to not kill me. I'd love to meet that guy and say 'thanks for showing mercy on my stupid dumb 17 years-old arrogant punk ass'. I'd buy him a case of beer a month for the rest of his life. No joke.
I'll tell you one other thing that will make you 100x the man at 15 that voss ever was - come clean. Just tell eveyrone it was B.S. and you're sorry. You're 15, nobody's gonna really bust your balls for it that bad, and in 3 or 4 years you're not going to know any of these guys anyways. But it will show
character.
Trust me.
As for you guys making the voss comparisons - remember exactly what voss claimed. No comparison in my book.
Can't wait to try AH again once I get a life and a comp. setup to handle it.
