self defense weapons

A wide variety of weapons could potentially be used for self-defence. Which is most suitable depends on those to be protected, the training of weapon user - and the situation and level of threat.
In many cases there are also legal restrictions. While in some jurisdictions firearms may be carried openly or concealed expressly for this purpose, there are more commonly strict restrictions on who can own firearms, and what types they can own. Knives, especially those categorized as switchblades may also be controlled, as may batons, pepper spray and personal stun guns and Tasers - although some may be legal to carry with a licence or for certain professions.

Everyday objects, such as flashlights, baseball bats, newspapers, keyrings with keys, kitchen utensils and other tools, and hair spray aerosol cans in combination with a lighter, can also be used as improvised weapons for self-defense. Tie-wraps double as an effective restraint. Weapons such as the Kubotan ( pocket stick) have been built for ease of carry and to resemble everyday objects.[4] Tactical flashlights and tactical pens are especially built as impact weapons that resemble everyday objects.[5] Ballpoint pen knives, swordsticks, cane guns and modified umbrellas are similar categories of concealed self-defense weapons that serve a dual purpose.
