Tactical Pen Self Defense (like Kubotan, Yawara, Pocket Stick, Koppo, ...)

[@VioStarclad]

Good stuff. I recently ordered a pen like the one shown to use as a self defense tool for until I turn 21 and can obtain a CCW permit for a handgun, but even after that I intend to keep the pen on me for a less-lethal option. It's good to see examples of how the pen can be utilized and it's impressive how much can be done with a couple inches of pen sticking out of your fist.

[@magnusjaegermiester]

This video was great. I own a Kubotan which is a similar self defense weapon and I will definitely practice these movies with my Kubotan to be prepared. I've watched other self defense video and I would prefer to use these moves than many of the other ones that I've seen. Keep 'em coming ttellc!

[@Snoofalah]

This is about someone trying to pull you or take you somewhere you don't want to go. There are other moves for fight situations, but this is mainly against attackers that intend to pull you in.

[@nataala_]

I own a Smith and Wesson tactical pen and strongly advise people keep a kubotan on their person. It allows you produce - immediately - an unanticipated situation for your assailant. Producing this situation saved my life - and my family's - from armed home intruders last year. I produced that effect with another defensive weapon but the principle is the same; surprise your assailant by being prepared. Always.

[@theminutemonth]

so what im learning is, stay totally self aware, recognize whats happening, and react appropriately to that event. most importantly, STAY AWARE, its so damned easy to lose awareness in a fight. you have to have to have to have to, a thousand times, stay self aware.

[@chingluen7023]

You need a tactical pen first so this techniques come in handy... thanks for making this video i have my own tactical pen. This will help a lot for widening my knowledge for self defense.

[@jstomprud5]

Excellent. I was unsure how the pens were actually used and this demo was great. Thanks.

[@pljtgh]

Years of train will turn these complicated techniques into instinct, I've been practicing martial arts for 8 years now, and I've noticed that when people touch me I have the instinct to grab them back and put them in a position that I have control over.

[@TheTaboCorp]

I have to agree with you here, most people aren't going to remember armbars and wrist techniques when someone is trying to mug them. When things like this happen, it takes a good amount of muscle memory to know what to do otherwise it'll be sloppy and ineffective. Great techniques if used correctly, not recommended to the inexperienced.

[@MrQuackism]

I agree with you 100%. "under the adrenaline dump it would be easier to just hold the kobotan in your hand and flail away..."

[@EthanD1997]

Super deadly self defence techniques using super deadly weapons such as pens, pencils, and small twigs.

[@3Pillers]

Thanks - lots of great techniques here to pick from and practice. A pen, even a cheap plastic one, is one of many things can be a defense weapon of opportunity when caught off guard. G Bowes

[@b0wshy]

I agree with what your saying, Just stab away and with a bit of luck you scare the attacker off. Brilliant videeo.. I've wanted to see a proper demo of this kubotan.. wicked

[@reviewthecheapest]

Nice demonstration guys!

[@flyingchicken33]

i own the CRKT tactical pen,and i love it.not to shit on the video or the instructor,but we all know that this is different if the person attacking is a nutcase or a professional fighter. Seriously, have the guy actually attack,i bet you it will be a lot more difficult to perform any of these moves.An attacker is always moving.I know these are techniques, but having that guy just stand there and "ALLOWING" you to do whatever you want is not a real life scenario. just my 2c.

[@darthrigel]

I like the sparrer's douchy-posery-bruceleey stance

[@paranormaltasmania2531]

Ineffective techniques for personal protection

[@Ninjausntf]

The kid's hands and fight stance are a little strange but none the less a hit is a hit.

[@Magic110Cop]

omg :O Aikido is everywhere. At least the first techniques are just like a couple of Aikido techniques, only a bit modified.

[@NIGHTSTALKER973]

id like to see the attacks being done at full speed

[@housecup1]

In real streetfights, how often will an assailant grab your wrist? Does this happen often in streetfights?

[@shayyeari]

Is something known, in which police departments at the World use kubotan? If something has answers, I'd be happy to receive them - including links to research and contacts in these organizations.

[@fenderJRtelecaster]

Thanks for the vid, these tactical pens are great weapons if you know how to use them and their legal, I'm looking to buy the fox mil-tac tactical pen or the CRKT Tao pen

[@musicislife0728]

Was there a crown/DNA catcher on the end of this pen? Was it a striking surface tip or a glassbreaker tip or does it matter?

[@LookieChannel]

hey very nice, thanks for sharing. Do you have experiences with plastic tactical pens? I like the Tops tactical pen that can be worn like a necklace, but I am not sure if it durable enough for all your techniques?

[@gort1961]

great techniques...BUT, for the novice under the adrenaline dump it would be easier to just hold the kobotan in your hand and flail away. getting hit with the tiny end of the device will hurt like a mofo and believe me, trying to remember a complicated technique like these is best left to those who train under the adrenalin dump. Still, great techniques

[@kookiesprinkles]

What are some good tactical pens. I was looking at the uzi pen with the glassbreaker end. Would that be good or might there be a better one? Im looking under 50$. Thanks. Great vid by the way!

[@fenderJRtelecaster]

@newtubetubetube yeah :P I just settled for a Staedtler permanent compact marker, I make use of it in the day and I know how to use it thanks to martial arts training to decent effect if I must, but I only use weapons if I'm faced with them, prefer a good old fist fight if I'm honest ;D

[@AlanTrades]

You leave your rib cage wide open to hot opponents right hand. How many threats are left handed?

[@XRinger]

Sometimes, the Pen is mightier than the sword. Like those times when you don't have a gun or knife with you.. :)

[@wael77]

Good stuff, thanks.

[@NaihanchinKempo]

thats were practice comes in. "Its not the master who does 1000 technique that i fear, its the novice who practices one technique 1000 times i fear" Bruce Lee

[@alensokolov]

no one take your hand in a battle.

[@hinano316]

Nice work!

[@706d]

I see very few times where a tactical pen is useful. Id rather have a knife, and knives are acceptable to bring into most places.

[@NaihanchinKempo]

minus slash anything you can do with FMA knife techniques you can do with a tac-pen

[@onDishez]

Are u a LEO training in a tae kwon do dojo?

[@Kev80ification]

Nice video!

[@BarryNewmanboenairgeez56]

Escape not xcape

[@Haloskeeper1]

Cant wait to get one now!! woot!

[@gomcse]

Great video. Thanks!

[@TomTheValve]

They are in a close combat situation. Taking out a weapon in that distance would not be tactically sound.

[@rayamat01]

If someone is coming at me unarmed I wouldn't feel justified in using a lethal weapon. Like a regular fight for example. A 200 Lumen flashlight on strobe in one hand and a pen or some other blunt object in the other hand would more than put me at an advantage

[@mikeadrover5173]

Outstanding demonstration! Just-subscribed to your channel. Thanks’ for taking your time to make this video! And I support this site. ~M~

[@blackjackomfg]

I dont care who you are your not catching anyone's punches...

[@Dave6181973]

Gort1961 made a wise suggestion. In a real fight, remembering techniques might hamper reaction time. Just hammering the spiked end of the pen into the dude's vital spots--throat, eyes, ears, will do magic.

[@hannah4262]

unless you're Jason Bourne

[@tibbe661]

Most of this you can do without the pen thats how i have learn it

[@snapcountsucks]

Actually you're wrong. After G.S.W. to the head it tends to make you hyper-vigilant. Add to that years of Martial arts and being a former M.P. I think i'll react just fine. That looked like a U.S.T.A. flag on the back right wall, is it?

[@tibbe661]

But with your fingers

[@MrMapex2010]

You have a pistol and a knife on you but you use a pen, haha good stuff.

[@Tiger-bp6op]

His not looking to kill...

[@Tiger-bp6op]

His not looking to kill...

[@Vbudo]

simply!!

[@officeshiina]

ペンに加えて達人の技術が必要な技に思える。

[@attlee2010]

Just the tip

[@098firechicken]

@newtubetubetube in your dreams. want to spar? what's your location?

[@Tonystarkes888]

Pens are not made of strong steel, it's cheap weak plastic, Iam calling bullshit on this one.

[@OfficialMINIm]

this is for using tactical pen. Tactical pens are made of aluminum and are very sturdy. they often have sharp glass breaker points and will crush skulls even when used by someone with proper training.

[@stevemartin4696]

What if your not carrying the kubotan at all times just incase someone grabs your wrist? Gay!

[@usoltzev]

Don't be pathetic.. If he will use knife or pistol against not-armed thug, he will spent enough years in prison after that

[@DRUMCORPKID19]

I hate these videos. Like your really gonna connect, twist and attack that fast when it happens. Its all crap. Its like that scene in bruno lol. That guy has no idea what he was talking about.

[@lapitorra]

So true... hahahah this wont work... the only thing i see this useful is by just using it to hit somebody with it as you throw regular punches... or actually stabbing somebody in the neck, but who wants to do that...
