Simple defense from wolfs

[jiexa30st]

Why I can't wrap my hand (I think left, because right hand keep the knife) cloth/leather  in order to wolf cling to this hand. Right hand can beat him. It's so easy and when I meet wolf first time - it was the first thing I thought.

First, cloth, or even leather piece(unless its properly treated, then it would provide some protection), wont really help you.

Second, wolves go for the throat, your hand dont interest them in the slightest.
