Nup disagee old chum, let the bastard hound get its gob clamped around my left arm then it gets the pointy end of my EDC blade through the eye, ear or throat. A walking stick like a knife will only hold one doggy at bay, let em get closer and swift short savage stabs with my EDC blade will do a better job in MHO

In regard to dog attacks, the SAS (if without guns) wrap their arm with clothing and let a dog bite down. Once it's bitten down, it won't let go, until you kill it. Stabbing a dog won't always kill it. Personally, I'd prefer a medium sized blade, 6-10 inches, and once the dog grabs on, stab it hard as I could through the eye, or back of the skull.

Dogs naturally bite the closest part of an attacker/target, which is why you offer up a protected area.
