Baseball bat vs Knife:

While the Knife is a more deadly weapon, the Bat has greater range, greater impact on the strike and the ability to more effectively defend against the knifes slash. While its not easy to parry with a bat, it still would end up being better then the knife, which can't defend against the swings of the bat. While a solid stab to the gut from the Knife would be fatal, the bat can keep a foe at range, stopping the knife user from effectively landing a good hit. And while the knife is more damaging, Its not like the bat can't do damage. A solid blow to the dead from a bat will at the very least knock you down for a good while, and most body shots will break bones and disable limbs. Edge: Chas.

Ace of Winchester vs Fire Light:

Both of these guns fairly even. The fire light can do more damage in the end, doing thins that the Winchester can't even hope to contend with. But the Winchester is still a lever rifle, meaning it has larger range and a faster rate of fire (Possibly greater magazine, but I don't even know if firelight needs ammo due to the fact that its some sort of alien tech). While the Ace of winchester is certainly a great weapon and it isn't entirely out classed, I can't give it the edge here. At the end of the day, its still just a gun. Its a great gun, but still a gun. Fire Light is something far beyond any normal gun, being a weapon which goes above and beyond anything we could understand as a species. Edge: Ken.

The Knowledge vs Metallic arm:

This is a funny match up. While the Knowledge is a much more powerful and destructive than anything the arm could ever do, its time consuming nature makes it very impracticle for this fight. The arm on the otherhand is much more of a untility item of the table. He both heals and protects ken for attack and injuries. It also bulsters Kens strength, allowing him to contend with Chas's much greater martial arts training. So in the end, While the Knowledge would be able to effectively oneshot Ken if chas can bring it to bear, it just takes too much time and requires too much effort to be effective. So, I just gotta give this edge to Ken. Edge: Ken.

X-factors:

Training: This is easy to call. Chas was been trained in hand to hand combat for a good amount of him in his youth, can he has kept this training fresh through his street fighting skills. While Ken more then likely was trained a bit by Aric, it's not canon in the comic and even if it was true, he wasn't going to be trained nearly as heavy as Chas. Edge: Chas.

Physicality: This is strange. While Chas is older, he showed that age didn't slow him down. He appeared to be at a high level of physical ability, doing things beyond what anyone could ever think. While Ken wasn't anything special on his own, he still had the Mechanical arm. This makes him stronger, tough, gives him healing abilities and increases his defence. While Chas was one tough bastard, the arm pushes Ken beyond that realms of normal humanity. Edge: Ken.

Durability: Both if these guys are tough Bastards, being able to soak up physical strikes from beings far in a way beyond that of normal humans. In terms of feats, I am more prone to siding with Chas, his soul and body getting jacked up by paranormal beings, and him being fine afterwards. But when again considering the advantages given to Ken by his arm, I have to give it to Ken. The arm is itself basically unbreakable in this fight, Chas not having anything which can break it. This added to the arms healing abilities, Then it really unfairly falls into Kens lap. Edge: Ken.

Intelligence: This falls in Ken's lap with ease. While Chas isn't an entire idiot, he was far from being the brainy type. He was a brawler, taking the role of the muscle in Constantine's Entourage. Ken was much more witty, wise and smart thinking, also having the biggest thing in my corner. Tactics! Ken is much smarter wiyj his tactics, which is the biggest deciding factors in a fight for me. Edge: ''Ken! Ken all god damn way''.

Winner:

I'm not gonna beat around the bush here, Ken is gonna absolutely wreck Chas in this fight. His weapons and equipment are better, his guns being able to probably waste Chas in a single shot. His arm effectively makes both Chas's Bludgeon and Rifle usless, its defence properties all but countering out 2 weapons abilities (the arms probably could probably break the bat outright). But this isn't even the clincher for me. In the end, Ken's superior tactics are what steal him the end. His smarter actions a wittiness give him a big advantage. So in then end, while Chas could put up one hell of a fight, he isn't going to win. Winner: Ken.
