Self Defense Products For The Street

By Leslie Ball


Getting mugged by a thug at night is actually very common these days with the crime rates going up. In fact, one can just walk around the streets at night and expect to get mugged or robbed by a thief or just a common thug. Of course usually the best thing to do would be to just let them be but there are times that they will not let their victims escape and will want to beat them up. Of course if one is caught up in this kind of situation, he should be prepared with a bunch of self defense products.

Now one of the most common of these kinds of goods would of course be the pepper spray. The pepper spray is a simple spray that is made out of chemicals that can temporarily blind an assailant but not really hurt him that much. This is used mostly by women who are trying to protect themselves from rapists at night.

Now a stronger variation of the pepper spray is known as the tear gas spray which is extremely effective. Now even though this is more expensive than pepper spray it actually lasts longer than pepper spray does and makes attackers tear up faster. The great thing about this tear gas is that it can really stun an attacker to the point that he may go on his knees.

Now other products would be the tasers or also known as the stun gun. Now these tasers are extremely powerful because it contains enough volts to electrify an assailant and also to paralyze him for a while. Now do take note that this stun gun is not meant to kill others but it can actually really hurt a person and make them fall down to the ground.

Now there is a better version of the taser which is known as the knuckle blasting taser. For those who do not know what it is, it is a set of knuckles that can be worn like a set of brass knuckles. The only difference is that these knuckles are not made out of metal and they would have a taser on them.

For those who are a little bit stronger, a great self defense weapon would be the metal baton which can really pack a hit. Now since the metal baton is a long range weapon, one can actually protect himself from assailants that would have knives and other kinds of blades. If one would have some martial arts experience, he can even fend off an opponent with a steel pipe and such.

Now the last one would be the kubotan which is used for short range. Now this thing is a pen looking weapon that is made out of steel. If it is used on people, it can actually hurt a lot if one knows what points to hit.

So basically, those are some things that one can use for self defense. The great thing about these is that they are not against the law because they are non lethal. They are also very handy and can be taken out just at about any time when the holder would want.
