Michigan Court of Appeals declines to interfere with a 1931 law that carries a five-year prison term for having brass knuckles.

The weapon is typically associated with violent ambushes in dark alleys.

Nearly two dozen states have similar bans and 17 others regulate the possession of brass knuckle.

A punch can inflict serious injuries.
