The Kubotan is a highly effective self-defense weapon
You may have never heard of a Kubotan. Popular with martial artists, these small, highly effective weapons are easy to carry and conceal. Shaped similar to a pencil, but made of metal, they can be used to strike an assailant in a number of vulnerable places. Good targets inlcude the groin, stomach, solar plexis, throat, the arm, the shin, hip bone, collarbone, ankle, and kneecap. A good strike with a kubotan to one of these places will make an attacker stop and think - a harder strike can actually break bones!
Kubotans are about 5 inches long and made of aluminum. They are available with blunt or pointed ends. They are also available in a variety of colors. Even if you don’t hit an attacker in one of the places mentioned above, if you just start jabbing chances are your attacker will find someone else to attack. So why not buy a few today and keep them in handy places - hopefully you won’t need them but you’ll be glad you bought them if you do. For more information on the kubotan.
