1. The ASP Tactical Baton is a viable self defense weapon provided that you receive proper training from a qualified instructor. While designed as a non-lethal weapon the baton, if used incorrectly or inappropriately, can be a lethal weapon. When utilized by law enforcement officers, use of the baton is high up on the Use of Force Continuum and is generally used when an officer is faced with the threat of serious bodily injury.
   
   The ASP Baton is durable and sturdy but I would not classify it as indestructible as I have heard stories of officers bending their baton on resistive and threatening subjects who are non-compliant. Bending of the baton by a LEO does not mean that the officer used excessive force but that is another issue which should not be intertwined with a review of the baton...
   
   Size:
   When fully opened it extends to about 15.5 inches and is about 6.25 inches long when closed. I find that the 15 ½ baton is a bit short but it depends on your needs and skill level. It is very versatile and maneuverable. Personally, I recommend a 21" baton to obtain more range.
   
   Grip:
   The grip is very strong and durable and I have yet to wear out a grip on any ASP Baton that I have utilized even with extensive amounts of training. The grip functions well with wet or sweaty hands. You will also obtain a good grip when wearing gloves.
   
   End Cap and Tip:
   The end cap and tip is made of strong metal that will become scratched when hit on the ground. Both are solid impact points. Your ability to open and close the baton can be adjusted by using the ASP retaining clip. Be sure to lubricate the end cap every now and then to keep the O-ring in good working condition.
   
   Shaft:
   The shaft is made of strong and durable steel which will hold up to a lot of abuse. But, it is not what I would call indestructible and can be bent under certain circumstances. If the shaft becomes bent you will not be able to close or open the baton and will need to replace the baton.
   
   Weight
   While not as heavy as a firearm or duty weapon the ASP is not lightweight. Carrying a baton provides you with many options for how and where you want to carry the baton based upon your unique needs.
   
   Utility:
   While designed as an impact weapon it can also be utilized to break glass and even as a fulcrum to provide leverage. If used as a fulcrum you will probably end up bending the shaft which means that you will need to replace the baton.
   
   Overall, the baton is a very useful tool when utilized correctly and appropriately.

1. I will admit I bought this baton for it was one of the cheapest of its kind I could find. Some of this size I have seen for $100 or more elsewhere online. I decided to purchase one for some self protection for I often walk at night for exercise, and at times I have had encounters with dogs and such that made me rather nervous being that was totally defenseless. I have to say that this baton although very cheaply priced seems to be very solidly built and takes a hell of wallop without even blinking. I was very impressed with its weight and quality for the price I paid. Unless you happen to live in an area similar to that of "West Side Story", this should be all that any regular slob like myself should ever need to give one some self assurance....

1. I had no idea it would be as bright as it is. I mounted it on my baton for late night walks. Cant get home early enough in the week to walk before sundown.
   
   Make sure u order for the right baton.



2. The light is not bright enought, cannot see things too well in the dark, I only used this light for few times, after that, I can't turn it back on anymore! I tried to change the battery, still doesn't work.... I won't buy another one to replace into my baton.

1. Only not really. Though it does have a pair of cute little ears that create a razor sharp (and adorable) striking edge.
   
   One good shot to the face or neck would certainly give a would-be assailant something to think about! It might also give them a punctured carotid or half a Glaswegian smile! Luckily, General Edge also makes a series of huggably cute eye patches: You can choose between octopus, penguin, or Pokeman.
   
   All in all, much more whimsical and collectible than the boring old boxcutters we used to have to fight with when I was a lad at school.



2. I purchased this to give me confidence when I am out by myself. It fits nicely in my hand and is made of sturdy metal. I would recommend.

1. I think these used to be advertised as the blades from "Bloodrayne", because I specifically remember buying these for that reason. However, if you've played the games or even seen the movie you know these aren't the same blades. I knew that too, but I thought they looked really cool in the pictures anyway. If you want a real replica you'll have to find it elsewhere.
   
   Don't get me wrong the price is really cheap and you should realize that when purchasing these. I've been collecting swords and weapons for quite some time now and these are probably the lowest quality items in my collection. Naturally you get what you pay for and if you want something cool for twelve dollars then this is exactly what you want. The steel isn't the highest quality steel you'll find, naturally that is reflected in the price.
   
   Sounds like I knew what I was getting... so why the low rating? I don't know, something just seems too shoddy. Maybe it's the fact I had to put the handle on myself? Or the velcro strap that just seemed/looked silly to me? If you think the image looks cool and that's exactly what you're looking for then you won't be disappointed, but to me these didn't feel like fully imposing weapons. They really don't feel that way when you hold them. Granted you could never use these in a battle realistically, but, even then, it should at least give off some presence and I just don't think these accomplish that.
   
   Furthermore these just aren't designed well enough that even make them worth putting on display. The blade looks cool, but the plastic on the handles throws it off. Who wants a weapon with a velcro strap attached to plastic on display? I really don't. Again, if you just want a cheap weapon to show off... then the price is right for you, but serious weapons collectors should avoid, especially if display is an important factor to you.



2. I didn't know i had to assemble it myself. You'll need another alum wrench and maybe a small mallot/hammer. other than that, love the sword!



3. If you have man forearms then these will not even begin to fit you. IF you have little girl or kid forearms these will fit you just fine. Other than that they look wicked.



4. This product is what you would expect for $[...]. The metal is 'trash' metal and the handle is plastic. The arm straps are velcro, which was a dissapointment. Also, you need to assemble the sword - it comes in pieces, and the allen wrench they send is not good enough to put it together. Lastly, trying to contact their 'customer service' is pointless - they do not answer their phone.



5. I bought this on accident. I thought it was a fancy thumb drive but it turned out to be a vampire killing tool...which was on my shopping list anyway so I just kept it, and boy am I glad I did. Have you ever been chased by a vampire? I'm talking a real vampire. The kind that you'd call Blade to help you deal with. Not those sissy Bi-light vampires. Those vampires can be taken care of with just an angry stare. No, I mean the kind of vampires that don't look like they just got done dancing at a gay disco. The kind of vampires that look at puppies the same way thirsty men look at a canteen of water. They'll pop your puppy's head off and drink it's red nectar like if it were a tea on a hot Arizona day. Then throw the empty carcass at you and move on to your children! What was I talking about again? Oh yeah, Family Guy! That show is great. I suggest watching all of it....wait...no...um.....
