I'd really like to hear the sound a revolver with no barrel makes.

I'd set up a dummy in an alleyway to stab it in the chest and fire--the way this was meant to be fired.

I believe it was never popular because of the tendency of the brass knuckles to break the hand of the user. Plus, lacking a barrel, the accuracy of it was comparable to a musket.
Also, just look at that 1-2 inch blade, it would be hard to do any real damage with the knife, especially through thick clothing. Would be better off with a real pistol and knife.

I can see there would be downsides to the original design (apparently the ungaurded trigger was also a source of hazard in one's pocket). Nonetheless it looks rather intimidating, and range isn't really an issue--this weapon was designed for very close quarters.

I think the purpose of the knife would have been intimidation more than injury, or perhaps to ensure point-blank accuracy by embedding the weapon in the target.

A modern implementation of the original concept could do much better as a weapon for thugs, terrorists, and scrupulous detectives.

It was nice things without a license.
I prefer umbrellas.
But they are not so common in modern fashion trends and impossible to sneak by.

But a spiky piano wire can do much.
And it's quiet.

A Swedish invention is a brass knuckles with the cartridge turned in between the striker and the skull.
Use glove!

If you're referring to the single-shot Sedgley OSS .38, or a gun of similar design, I understand the asthetic appeal but I find these weapons impractical for the purpose of stalking and mugging a victim: the gun being visible on the ouside of the glove, and the glove itself being rather obvious.

Point taken. If your purpose is simple assasination, garroting might be a better option.

What I am talking about is a fired cartridge without striker exist.
Weld a tube sleeve as a cartridge is loose in a weld bead at the bottom.
The ball is established between the knuckle and skull.
A cartridge dead! Can not be fired for stupid miss.
Zeros are speculating men acting!

Taking power means psychology advantage.
With a fist blows to his head away!
A cool man goes his way!
