Columbia River CRKT 9705 James Williams Tactical Key Personal Defense Key Tool (1.76" Blade Length) GRN Handle + Philip Screwdriver

Perfect grip and easy to hold! A very good quality product!!

This is a great idea. My Initial thoughts about how much larger this key is compared to others on your key-ring was like "wow" that's a little bigger than the picture looked- BUT!, if the tactical key were any smaller, it would not be usable as a defense tool. Once I put it on my key-ring, it was only about a 1/4 inch longer than my old Ford key. It Blends nicely with the whole key-ring. I hid it in right next to the larger keys and its not really noticeable unless someone is REALLY looking for it= 95% Covert on my scale. My only concern/question is if Airport security allows this or even notices it. Otherwise, good piece of mind knowing its there (JIC)-Just in case.

I was recently confronted by two punks who were mouthing off and physically getting in my space right before I swiped my ATM card at a gas station a few days ago, but luckily I had my keys in my hand and I gripped in my fist and held them up such that the keys were well exposed and the two hoods backed off and decided to walk away. Given that I'm a senior (and not quite as nimble as I was in a former life), I began to think about protecting myself in the future if I were to have the same threatening situation. So, when I ran across this self defense tool I thought I'd try it. It's extremely well made and is solid. While it's the PERFECT size for it's purpose, it's just slightly too big to carry on a key ring on a day-to-day basis. So, I'm going to put a small, high visibility wrist strap on it and put it on my wrist when I'm alone and just show it if needed. Bottom line is that I'm absolutely thrilled with my purchase. The addition of a wrist strap will keep me from dropping it, and actually helps with visual of being well prepared in a reasonable confrontation. Obviously, it's not threatening enough to fend off an armed attacker, but much better than keys alone. (I sure would not want to be hit with it!) So, I highly recommend it.
