I'm elderly but not exactly frail. I was a fairly high-level athlete in my youth and I'm well-versed in dirty fighting.
I'm thinking of starting to carry a cane in case I have to administer a "hickory shampoo" as a less-than lethal alternative. "Cane Fu" is a thing and I can easily get a prescription for it.
No warnings, when I judge a threat to be imminent, action.
Also, no swing, a two handed poke. A hard thrust with the body behind it to the solar plexus or the face is much more effective than a whack. It is also useful for blocking or parrying.
