The Cold Steel English Police Truncheon is inspired by the Truncheon employed by British Bobbies to be eye-catching and durable. Injection molded from high-impact polypropylene this Truncheon is impact resistant, weatherproof, and waterproof and comes with a cord lanyard.
The Truncheon was the tool of the trade for the tough law enforcement officers of Victorian England that served as a symbol of authority. Displaying the Royal crest, jurisdiction, and department number on the shaft, these were almost a badge in their own right.
The classic Truncheon could be employed with devastating effect. Often made from Lignum Vitae, a heavy, dense hardwood, the Truncheon could be used to jab, deliver rapping strikes, and be used for joint manipulation and locks, or the straight forward clobbering of whatever was in your way. Today the Classic Truncheons are prized by collectors particularly overseas.
