What a pussy, next time say you aren't buying any of that fake shit and insult their country
You have not been to Thailand have you.. Your attitude will have you laid out decomposing in a gutter.
You can buy swords, all sorts of crazy knives, knuckle dusters and tasers at beachside shops hanging outside in specials bins. It's one place you want to avoid trouble. You also do not walk off the main Street, that was my mistake, fortunately it only cost me a purchase of fake Nike's.
Plenty of the locals do Thai boxing and they are poor, they fight for a buck, loser gets nothing.. "tomorrow night, tomorrow night" if anyone knows the fight truck..
Funniest thing... I bought a taser for $25 over there, looks like a torch and actually has a light on it. It was their high output capacity model. ... also a set of knuckle dusters that Fit into a belt buckle (belt included). When I came home, there was a guy at a local gym who told me he bought a taser for $650 off another guy in the gym. he showed me.. it was the small unit you can buy beachside for $18 in Thailand.
I was warned by a local shop owner that I was being watched by a gang, to lay low, don't engage in any trouble. They call me "man with big arms". I took his advice, stayed clean.
No make trouble in Thailand, I tell you,
