Knife hunting dangerous game?
Anyone ever attempted to just go toe to toe with a wolf, bear, or cat using only a knife or perhaps a spear?
I am a blacksmith and can fashion my own blade for such a hunt. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried and perhaps they can give me their experience.
I intend on doing this soon in the future, and I'll make a post before I go out, lol, that way if you never hear back from me you'll know it's because I lost the fight.

No doubt you'll lose the fight with the cat. Slim chance with the bear. You might have a chance with the wolf if his friends don't show up.

Maybe he should start out trying it with a rabbit.

Don't know if this is serious or not. I don't know if you can get a cat to fight you, it has to be willing to fight. You can't just throw down your glove and call a duel. Bears on the other hand well they might take you up on your challenge.

He asked the same question about hunting rabbits in the "small game" section. I find it hard to believe he is serious.

I hope he is, and tries the cat, bear, or wolf.
My dog can barely catch a rabbit. A bear would be more helpful in getting close. Hope he has a friend with a camera.
