Great small baton for running & dog walks
Have had this baton for three and a half years. I carry it when I jog with my dog or walk my dog. I called my police department (in Ohio) and they said it is legal to carry. Very small and no one looks at it funny. I just hold it in my hand & it barely sticks out of my fist. I had a couple loose dogs bite my dog, so I wanted something for defense. I figure dogs do not know what a knife or pepper spray is, but if you wave a metal rod at them they know they do not want to be hit with it. I have opened & closed it maybe 100 times & carried it in rain & it gets sweat on it & still works fine. Only thing I have hit with it is a cardboard box for practice, but seems very sturdy. I recommend it as long as it is legal where you live.

Sheath is a joke
Sheath immediately came unraveled after a day of carrying, not KC fault but their customer service was poor to say the least.
