Product Information

The standard AA maglight is the perfect size for use as a pocket stick (though striking with real force is almost certain to damage it in some way). A flail to the eyes has some value, but this is nothing you can’t accomplish with a wrist flick or bil jee (finger jab) to the same target. For the sake of simplicity we will focus on two striking methods: forward thrusts and reverse hammer strikes. I can’t address specific scenarios here, so we’ll stipulate that you have a need to and are justified in planting the end of your stick in another person.

It is potentially lethal and must be considered a deadly weapon, even if it is not used to deliver fatal techniques. Easily put back the Pocket Staff into its small form by twisting and pushing it down, locking it with the top pin. Pocket stick lengths vary a bit, with the tapered aluminum sticks often a bit shorter than the nontapered wooden, plastic, or metal sticks. It’s a little dangerous for beginners , make sure to check out tutorials before using them after purchase.

You must choose from wooden, metal, and plastic pocket sticks from a variety of manufacturers and sources. Extremely hard, and effective as a yarawa, if I were to be asked why I have it, obviously as a treat for my friend’s dog. Now that we’ve covered the basics, let’s talk about striking, and the targets to strike on a human being. If you do carry a pocket stick as a keychain, avoid the ridiculous advice to use it as a handle with which to flail your cluster of keys at an attacker.

Be advised, when selecting a pocket stick, that if you carry it as a keychain and use it with your car keys, it might be possible for the weight of the stick and keys to cause some kind of problem with your ignition.Keychains are seen by most others (including authority figures) as just that — benign, everyday items. A dowel not much bigger than an ergonomic writing pen is actually among one of the most effective close-quarters self-defense weapons you probably aren’t carrying. I think these are very individualized and therefore up to you to discover and practice through experimentation.

Flails, even when performed with a gigantic wad of keys on the end of the stick, simply aren’t effective.

When striking a grasping or grabbing limb – say, the hand or arm of someone poking you, grabbing your shirt, or reaching into your car – the backs of the hands are quite vulnerable, as are the areas of the arm inside the wrist and forearm. The key is attached with a quick-detach keyring so I don’t have to leave my koppo if I need to surrender my car key to a mechanic or rental agency. I’ve read accounts of people who carry them upright in their back pockets next to their wallets, with or without paracord lanyards to facilitate pulling them out (some people find that keys on the pocket stick get in the way when using the stick for defensive techniques or locks or what have you). Blows to the side of the lower torso or to the armpit cause pain, as do strikes to the pectorals, to the biceps, inside the elbows, and to the gut. There is no excuse for not carrying a pocket stick, provided there are no laws where you live forbidding them.

Any item that is sharp like a pencil will penetrate flesh if used with sufficient force, so keep that in mind. When gripping the pocket stick like a fist load, it will project from one or both sides of your hand. This titanium fist load is very comfortable (the knurling is just right, in my opinion), light, strong, and has an elastic finger loop that eliminates the need for tedious sizing and resizing of the loop. The “Ninja Keyrings” available that have metal protrusions that thrust out between the fingers are similarly poor ideas.The key keeps the pocket stick more or less in the same position all the time and provides me with an easy means of drawing it. I’ve never had this problem myself and find it hard to believe, but I’ve been told by others that the possibility exists. The UK has been off the list of Countries I can sell my Ti Rod Tactical Titanium Pocket sticks into for just the reason you describe. One substitute for pocket sticks that is even more innocuous in appearance than these keychains is small flashlights.
