I found this website that had a very interesting personal protection tool.
www.kellyworden.com. There is a long informative article on the Travel Wrench or Impact Kerambit Personal Protection tool. The article states "The Travel Wrench was designed after the Barrio knife of the Philliphines and Indonesian martial arts, sometimes referred to as a sickle knife. The appearance of the tool is deceptive and few people have any idea what it is on initial examination. Designed as a light weight defensive striking tool, the L-shaped high-density plastic can be dismissed as nothing more than a sport wrench, key ring, or massage tool for arthritis or acupressure." With alot of practice I think it would be a nice addition to my "you'll never guess what this is for" collection. It'll sit right next to my stick of death. N

Any of those "tools" will work if you have some knowledge of where to touch people with it and what it will feel like when you do :thumsup

True but if you have that knowledge then you don't need to buy tools. Your finger or an ink pen or anything else at hand would work.

True, but an ink pen is a tool as well. :thumsup

I don't like using my fingers, it hurts when you hit someone and you suffer the possibility of breaking it at my age :rolf

A pen can work; I carry a Cross set for the purpose, but when my hands get sweaty, my confidence wanes since those pens get slick. This looks like a good alternative for me. Thanks!

Hopefully you can by an ink pen rather cheaply unlike buying "defensive weapons" which tend to be over priced.

I understand about wanting to protect the fingers. It seems that as I get older my hands want to cramp more. The grip just ain't what it used to be.

Overpriced you say, Paladin?

Why, for the low, low price of $125, you can have this SureFire Tactical pen, with glass-breaker tip!!

I'm fixin (that's a good southern word) to be out of work. Even the $.79 ones are too expensive for me right now.

While you're at the website check out the Saf-T-Wrench.

I have both the Impact Kerambit and the Saf-T-Wrench. I got the Kerambit first at a local gun shop. I like it but it kept sliding out of my pocket when I sat down. I also noticed that when I went to grab it, it seemed like it was always out of position and I was fumbling around for it. It also seems to me that to use it requires more training than the Saf-T-Wrench.

Nana, if you would like to try one out or both items give me a call, we can get together for some training. Fat Bastard has my number.

 

[brownie]

I prefer the Saf T Wrench myself :thumsup

Ghost: I would like to see the Kerambit. I though it was an interesting weapon but it would need training to use it effectively. I thought I saw a belt carrier for it on Natural Spirit Products. They also have pictures on some of the pressure points the Kerambit can be used on. It looks like they are some of the pressure points Brownie showed us when were were using the "the stck of death. I ordered two Saf T Wrenchs last week, they arrived yesterday. I haven't seen FB,, yet to give him is. We would love to get together for training or at the range. Let FB know when it is convienent for you.
