In addition to being a proven self-defense weapon, knives also have a multitude of other handy uses. These are the reasons they make an excellent addition to your personal defense tool kit.
Blades are available in several different designs. Most hunting and survival knives are fixed blade designs that are carried in a sheath. These are excellent additions to your auto safety bugout bag or tucked under your pillow for home defense. The reason for this is because, as a general rule, they are larger than folding self-defense knives.
Self-Defense Knives
All of Defense Divas® self-defense blades are folding designs that are easy to carry in your purse. Typically, self-defense knives are smaller than other knife models to make them easier to conceal, lighter in weight and more versatile for carrying than a fixed blade knife.
Many of the folding knives we have available also include additional features such as an emergency seat belt cutter and emergency window glass breaking tip. These make excellent choices to keep in your car. If you are ever in an accident or crash into a body of water, you will be able to cut the seatbelt and break the window to get free.
Self-defense knives come in either a straight edge blade, serrated edge, or combination edge. The combination edge has a super sharp straight edge on the top ½ of the blade and the bottom half is serrated. This lends more versatility to your knife purchase because it can be used to cut through a variety of materials as well as to defend yourself.
Covert carry knives such as the lipstick blade and the pen knives offer consumers the additional benefit of being discreet to carry virtually anywhere. The pen knives even have a real, usable black ink pen on one end to write with in those meetings. Take notes in class with the pen knife and no one will ever know that you are carrying your self-defense weapon with you at all times.
If you are looking for a “one and done” self-defense weapon, the Sting Blade is a knife, a high voltage stun gun and a security flashlight all rolled into one of the best personal defense weapons on the market.
Impact Self-Defense Weapons
Self-defense products in this category include cat keychains, kubotans, knuckles and all other self-defense weapons that use physical force instead of OC pepper spray or electricity to deploy. All though impact self-defense weapons appear harmless compared to other self-defense weapons, they are highly effective when used correctly. In fact, knuckles are illegal in some states. Check your local laws before purchasing any self-defense weapon.
Kubatons use a pointed tip to exert extreme pain and pressure into an attacker’s muscle or joint. Either place is extremely effective and this is one of the reasons kubaton training is still taught by police forces across the U.S. today.
Cat keychains use the same age-old and trusted principle as the kubotan with one major difference. Cat self-defense keychains loop over your fingers as if you were wearing two rings. The result it that you are now equipped with two very pointy and very hard “cat ears” that add a significant boost to your personal defense.
Kuba-Kickz® are innovative shoe inserts that add a defense weapon to your shoes. Made of indestructible plastic and sporting two pointed tips, these hands-free defensive weapons are a favorite of runners and those that walk across college campus to get to class. One swift kick into the groin and your attacker, male or female, will be on the ground in a curled up ball of agony.
Defense Divas® has self-defense knives and knuckles to keep you protected in any scenario. Stash one in your car console or in your nightstand. Add one to your keychain or hook it on your backpack to be secure in your self-defense ability.
