Black Jack

[Frodo]

black Jack also know as a sap

piece of leather filled with lead,  It will make an attacker sit in the corner and drool on himself

I'd rather get caught with a .380 in my pocket than that here In Ohio.

I can get a CCW for the .380 . . . I'll be talking to the judge (s)  if I'm caught with that thing of yours.

May God bless,

Dwight

Remove the leather string at the end of the handle and install a metal "O" ring and would make a great protective key chain. Is that teeth marks in the jack?

I like it.  Makes for a little piece of mind if times go bad.

I don't always carry my 9 but this gives me a decent idea.  A friend talked me into carrying a Q-Ball in a sock.  You never know when a game of pool is going to break out.

Hit the little lump on the back of your skull......nappy time.  The medula is sure sensitive to getting whacked.  Nasty headache when you wake up too. 

Here in WI, saps are covered by your CCW. 

Sock full of sand works too, empty sand and put your sock back on.

For many years I have kept a Louisville Slugger baseball bat in my car. My old fielder's mitt and a baseball ride along also. Never know when I'll find a game to play in.

A nice russet potato in a sock can be handy for social occasions. Of course, they will sprout and turn mushy so we have to replace occasionally.

24 years as a cop, always carried a 24-ounce pocket sap, spring steel with a rounded flat piece of lead in a leather casing. Our old uniform pants had a special pocket along the seam of the right leg. In plain clothes I carried it in my back pocket. Came in handy more than once.

Back in the 1970s a company called Damascus Industries made "sap gloves". Basically just a nice black leather glove with the knuckle area containing a pouch filled with about 8 ounces of powdered lead. Another version placed the lead-filled pouch in the palm of the hand, which provided a pretty convincing slap to the face when circumstances required such a response.

Know your state and local laws! Blackjacks, slap-jacks, flails, and other such things may be classified as dangerous or deadly weapons, and little or no wiggle-room may exist for those carrying such devices.

Of course, there is always a $2 roll of nickels, wrapped securely in duct tape to avoid breaking the paper roll, easily gripped in the hand to add some authority to an attention-getter pop in the face, or the ribs, or the kidneys. Also handy for pay phones, if you can find one in 21st Century America.

Frodo   I made one for my brother looks similar but mine was filled with 10 dollars in quarters with a flap that you would pass through your belt fold it back down and snap to the money end that flap was the handle very effective but if questioned by police it's just a change purse.

Looks as badass as it can get.

A roll of $1 coins sounds as the safest bet for all states as it passes as a wallet if SHTF. Also, it would not be confiscated if one goes to jail/prison over the fight, and they will have to return it upon release.
