And it even comes with the instructor cap.
Okay I'll be honest I stashed away the instructor gap on my 31 inch as this new 21 inch baton is just perfect for dropping into my pocket as well as Carry!
I'm definitely going to say this thing is about half the size of my previous baton in just shear mass and weight.
Which isn't entirely bad.
Actually with my elbow this is a good idea.
So buddy of mine posted this up and I traded my Leatherman oht Multi-Tool and 20 bucks for this and a really cool holster that I need to get $10 part for. And then I can just clip it to my belt and remove it.
As well I can also just drop this into my pocket while walking dog or running down to the beach.
Yep having an impact weapon is pretty important to deter attacking animals trying to get a hold of my puppy dog.
And then of course there are always the animals that walk on two legs.
Which today here in Portland some man was arrested for taking a hatchet to another human being and chopping him in the head with it.
Portland today. Never surprises me the crazy that goes on.

Yep that's right no joke ax attack in downtown Portland and it is a daily occurrence of some kind of extremely violent crime or murder happening in downtown Portland.
And it comes in electrolysis stainless steel. Which means this is super corrosion resistant and deploys with a flick of my wrist.
Definitely a very handy thing for a practitioner of Filipino martial arts to have available.
And I am absolutely loving this multiple texture grip that really does afford me an excellent grasp on this wonderful tool.
ASP batons are actually a pretty good company and they make an extremely reliable product.
Which of course I already know because I've already got one and the extra special discontinued 31 inch model is more considered a riot baton then a daily carry baton.
Well as I continue to do more Serrada and escrima I'm happy to see how things work.
And as for Price well I only have a total of $25 into the baton as well as the sheath total. Which means that I got the leathermen for five bucks. And then $20 cash.
I am actually making out like a bandit!
And here's comparison picture of what it looks like next to my 31 inch baton.
As you can see there's quite a bit of size difference between these two and it definitely makes itself known the second you start swinging it.
The quality of tools that you have shows what kind of practitioner you are.
And for a tool that can potentially save my life or my puppy dog's life it is definitely an excellent investment. Let alone affording me the ability to walk past people without having to carry my stick openly.
The folding stick is really awesome!
