This video provides an expert-level review and test of the PKP Incorporated PAL Knife Pistol, a unique hybrid firearm from the 1980s. Scott from Kentucky Ballistics demonstrates its operation, conducts ballistic gel and chronograph tests, and evaluates its potential as a self-defense tool.

The Sure Defender is a rare, single-shot percussion knuckleduster pistol from the 1860s, predating common pinfire revolvers.

This video examines the unique and no longer manufactured Arsenal RS-1, a knife-gun featuring a .22 LR revolver concealed within the knife's grip. It's classified as an AOW (All Other Weapon).
