Kubotans
Kubotans
are highly accessible, extremely durable, effective self defense
weapons. They can be used for stabilizing your fist, applying pressure
to sensitive parts of an assailant's body, or gaining leverage on
an assailant's wrist or fingers. A kubotan is made of aluminum and
comes in various colors. Kubotans can have either pointed or flat
tips. Attach your kubotan to your keychain so you always have it
with you. Very popular martial arts weapon.
The Kuboton
is designed to be used against bony surfaces, soft tissue and nerve
points. It is effective because of the temporary paralysis or extreme
pain it causes. Even for those without experience in a martial art,
the Kubotan provides an inexpensive and easily learned method of
self defense. Comes with the key ring so you can attach to your
regular keychain.
The Kubotan
increases the power of any strike. It is not necessary to waste
time or miss an opportunity by trying to be overly precise. It's
better to react naturally. Good targets are the groin, stomach,
solar plexis, throat, the arm, the shin, hip bone, collarbone, ankle,
and kneecap. A sharp strike to a bony part of the body will encourage
an assailant to stop his attack. A harder, well placed blow can
easily break bones--especially if the force of the blow is not hindered
by clothing.
The most basic
applications involve striking or poking vulnerable areas of the
body with the Kubotan. Generally speaking, swinging strikes work
better against bony surfaces while fleshy areas are more susceptible
to pokes and jabs with the ends of the Kubotan. With this concept
in mind, a person avoids the confusion and frustration of trying
to remember specific strikes for specific targets. Instead, one
simply remembers to strike bones and poke soft tissue and pressure
points.
There is no
wrong strike. Just hit as hard as you can the closest body part.
The strike does not have to be perfect. Since nerves are close to
the surface of most bony parts, even a glancing blow will inflict
enough pain to make your assailant think twice about continuing
his attack.
You can also
use the keys that you have attached to the kuboton. You can hold
the kuboton and swing the keys. Most effective when you hit the
face. The keys will scrape into the flesh and cause pain and bleeding.
The kuboton
is legal and entirely unregulated. To most people, the Kubotan is
little more than a nondescript key ring. While the Kubotan is not
particularly intimidating, it remains an effective self defense
instrument. It really can save your life.
