 Tonfa - Baton
4th Kyu - Green Belt
The Tonfa consists of a rectangular shaped piece of wood, with a
handle protruding from the side near the end.
Swung around at speed, this apparently harmless tool could be
efficiently used to deflect a blow and then strike an opponent after
deflection.
The PR24 or Side Arm Baton is used by Police Forces all over the
World.
The actor William Shatner made the weapon famous in the American TV
Police series "T J Hooker". |
