My turn!

Yard Hook. The 7 inches of SR-77 with a wicked re-curve that will enter and eviscerate arteries and organs would be my first choice.
Light enough to carry all day and God forbid a mountain cat attacks instead of pissing it off I'd opt to drive my Yard Hook into
its chest in three lightning fast plunges. That should stop his attack rather fast. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

The re-curve is a natural slicer as the blade is designed to draw in the blade. Hence I vote for The Hook! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
