Ahem
As I understand the rules, and as they have been explained to me, you may not grab your own sword, flail, etc by the striking surface. Also, if your own weapon is hit into you (striking surface hits you) with enough force, it counts as a hit. Are we saying this is wrong now because there's no rule that explicitly states you cannot?
Rules are made for a reason. If you want them changed, talk about it with realm leaders or the war council. If you wawnt to make it a home rule that you can grab a stave by the striking surface, go ahead...but if I see you holding a striking surface at a national event, I'd have to call your attention to it, and I'm sure heralds would call you to lose the limb.
