I'm pretty sure you are allowed to carry a small pocket knife outside of so called visitations zoner (areas where you can get searched randomly) and ofcourse bars clubs and other places where a knife logically shouldn't be brought.

Would never recomend a knife for self defense though as the saying goes : the attacker might die on the streets but you will die in the hospital.

I personally always carry a small knife on my person for utility uses here and there but I have never reached for it in a self defense situation as I am not remotely trained for that scenario.

The only legal thing I can think of would be a high candela flashlight and some good running shoes.

I think a "tactical pen" is legal, but not sure.

Besides that I would say wrestling 😊

None.

You must understand that we never had a revolution or long fight for freedom. The king simply couldn't be bothered to be sovereign anymore.

No freedom here has ever been bought with blood, so we (imo) don't care too much about the upholding of our rights and safety, instead naively entrusting such things entirely to the state.

I personally think our current state is like living without any form of insurances. Might be worth it right now, but if shit hits the fan we'll be utterly fucked.

Pepper spray. I think that's it. You can't carry around a knife, knuckles, any kind of cudgel or anything. It's all illegal, at least without a permit. You may even need a permit to carry pepper spray. Look it up on the Danish police's website.

Also, Denmark is still a safe country, even though your friend had a bad experience.

Okay, you have to explain what the hell happened to your friend, since you would need a fucking weapon

Technically it's not illegal to carry lets say 100 kroner worth in 50 øre in a sock and then tie a knot on it. Unfortunately it's a bit heavy, but you can get some really good hits in with very little force.

It is also legal to have on of the devices that sounds a very loud alarm, some of them can't even be shut off unless deactivated by app or fingerprint.

Please respect that (and if you don't please die in a hole because this is serious :D ).

One of reasons Denmark is generally safe, is because things like this is not respected. That's apparently really difficult for some people to understand.

Your reasoning is basically, that your friend do not want to involve the police, and that makes it OK. It's pretty easy to guess what kind of behavior got him into this mess in the first place.

Go to Germany and buy a "dog spray" to carry in your purse if you're worried about getting attacked.

Or this

None!

You can apply to carry a peberspray, but you need a real reason to have you application accepted.

Counter question, we allow you to carry whatever he was carrying. He is now carrying something double worse, and because of our enabling, their organization has grown. So then what?

Woider at 2024-03-16 18:23:20+00:00 ID: kv66dkj

Unfortunately, none. Citizens here are not allowed to practice any real form of self-defence or civil vigilantism.

A dog. If it attacks someone, it’s just an accident. It doesn’t matter if the victim is a gangster, or a little kid on the street - the worst that can happen is that you get a fine.

Name a weapon that can only be used for self defense?

If you get caught in possession of a weapon, I believe the minimum sentence is 4-6 months in prison.

I don't think a chain saw is illegal..

Jernet1996 at 2024-03-16 14:16:16+00:00 ID: kv536hu

Anything you allow people to carry in self defense, you enable the other guy to carry for your mugging.

Buy a travel size hair spray. It’s legal and will hurt eyes
