Hidden Weapons for Self-Defense: Weapons in Disguise

Hidden Weapons for Self-Defense: Weapons in Disguise

Personal safety should never be taken lightly. Although your environment may appear calm, docile, and free of crime, the fact is you may be a stalker’s intended victim. Or you may simply be the unfortunate victim of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Either way, you need to be able to protect yourself when deadly trouble comes your way. For this reason, companies offer self-defense weapons that are hidden until needed—without being overtly menacing.

Hidden Weapons Designed for Self-Defense

Carrying weapons to fend off an assailant is an important part of bolstering your self-defense plan. However, hefting around a knife, club, or large stun gun can attract attention from good and bad people alike. Not to mention, it may also make you appear as the “bad guy,” which can cause you all sorts of problems with curious citizens and law enforcement personnel alike.

However, there is a solution to the problem of carrying a weapon concealed from prying eyes. Specifically, using a weapon in disguise. These knives, sticks, stun guns, and even canes take the guise of everyday objects. This can include cellphones, umbrellas, lipstick tubes, keychains, and more.

Clandestine weapons of this sort provide you with the tools to defend yourself at a moment’s notice without attracting attention. Furthermore, attackers won’t know what hit them as you go from an innocent victim to a hardcore defender with—figuratively speaking—a wolf in sheep’s clothing by your side.

Best of all, when closed, this extra-sharp blade hangs innocently around your neck. So, no one is the wiser about its devastating potential if or when trouble comes your way.

Specifications:

  • Overall length: 3.23 inches.
