So..The other day,as I was going to my Aikido class,and I had a texas chainsaw massacre t-shirt.And one of them made a joke about how it's not aikido-ish and some other made a joke about aikido techniques involving disarmament of an attacker with a chainsaw.

I'm not gonna ask about disarmament of chainsaw attackers but something a little similar.

Attackers with baseball bats?machetes?Nightsticks?
Could these be treated the same way as a Bokken/Jo/Knife disarmament?or they could be taught seperatly somewhere in aikido?
