This Expandable Steel Baton is your secret to self-defense. Available in three sizes. With a simple snap of the wrist, the baton expands to its full size and becomes an excellent self defense weapon. The 26" baton measures 10" when closed, the 21" baton measures 8-1/4" when closed and the 16-1/2" baton closes to measure 6-1/2". Each baton features a foam padded handle for better comfort and reduced slippage. Black nylon sheath with belt loop included. **** OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS **** To open - hold baton close to body, gripping the handle firmly. Swing baton quickly away from body. The batons will extend. To collapse - grip handle firmly and strike the tip of the baton into a firm surface (such as the ground) in the opposite direction that the baton extends. ***** PLEASE NOTE ****** We have received several comments that these batons can be hard to close. The sections are held open by the friction of the tubes against each other. The more force used to open the baton, the more force needed to close the baton. These batons are not toys. These batons are are heavy duty steel weapons for self defense. We choose to sell a high quality product that takes some effort to close than a piece of junk that will fail in an emergency situation.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Superb blunder. Comment: The item arrived early, was in great condition, had a great foam grip, good weight, and was quite effective as a weapon. I used it mainly for exercise, swinging it like practicing shadow swordplay (Great for cardio). After a few weeks, without notice, the smallest section pops off. I tried to put it back in, but now the section it retracts into directly is stretched, therefore it does not hold onto the thrown section. Albeit I may have been a bit rough, or used it too frequently, it may have been too quick of temperature variations, I dont know. I will try and return it, and if not accepted, I will try to repair it myself, at which time if I have no luck, it is now a shortened baton. Customer Rating: Summary: impossible to collapse Comment: After I extended this baton, I could not close it! and I tried everything. The problem is that if it gets stuck and you cannot close it, you cant even send it back. If it did close properly, however, it would be a good quality baton. Customer Rating: Summary: Baton Comment: Quick shipping - was faster than estimated delivery. Vendor was polite and accurrate. Would buy from again. Customer Rating: Summary: Good product... Comment: Serves the same purpose as the one that is twice the price. Good quality, fast shipping. Thanks! Customer Rating: Summary: This is a very nice baton! Comment: This is a very nice baton! It is very good quality. It comes with a sheath, but it will also fit in a normal-sized pocket. Compacted it is a foam rubber handle that is 8 1/8 inches long. With a flick of your wrist, you have a 21 1/4 inch long sturdy, steel rod that's good for whacking the ever-loving bejeezus out of pretty much anything that doesn't have a handgun. I got it for my wife for when she goes jogging on mostly deserted nature trails.
When expanded, the pieces lock together pretty tight, so you'll need to jam it really hard in to a cement surface to compact it.
