Sticks and stones may break your bones...

I am certified to carry an ASP, and I enjoy tackling my heavy bag with it every once in awhile. I don't carry it much anymore, but learning to use and having a defensive tool is always a good thing.

There's plenty of other things that make great batons, like hickory axe handles. Here's a baton I made from a fiberglas axe handle, alongside my 16" ASP. The paracord wrap has since been replaced with a neoprene-like slip on sleeve that provides a really great grip.



Anybody else like their sticks? :fing02:
