One of the weirdest thing I had happen to me was being in an edged weapon confrontation (with one of Tom's "all of the above" type bad guy) is watching him deal,with the blade. I was so used to guys talking all sorts of crap at the end of a gun that it was weird to see the major visceral difference of compliance when a blade was involved. It seems if they know they are going to get cut, it affects them at a different level.
