SZCO Supplies 21-Inch Heavy-Duty Tire Thumper – Black Polypropylene Baton with Ribbed Handle and Wrist Lanyard – Truck Tire Pressure Checker, Glass Breaker, Self-Defense, and Utility Tool

Renewed my sense of confidence and security

The Javelinas haven't been back since thumped

Well made and sturdy. Fits under truck seat for easy access. A great attitude adjuster.

Nice size and weight. Bought for protection. Haven't had to use and hopefully won't, but I'm happy so far.

A classic synthetic material/ heavy plastic “Billy club.” The handle is a bit on the wide diameter side, especially as it is pretty slick so I felt like if it was ever so slightly less big around, I would have a much more secure hold on the grip. I wrapped the grip with self fusing silicone tape, which solved the slipperiness issue, and looks pretty dope, but slightly exacerbated the oversized issue… still a net positive, in my book, as it feels much more secure in my hand, however people who have below average size hands, or even average sized hands, might worry that it could be wrenched from there grip, or even slip out when they strike something strongly. If this was a wooden thumper, the handle could be filed/sanded, or shaved down, to a perfect size for the individual user… I understand that they have to choose a size that they think will fit anybody who uses it, but it would be very easy to wrap a few layers of grippy silicone tape, handlebar wrap, etc… around the handle, making it wider, if a person’s it on the small side. The option of reducing the diameter is not really feasible in this case though.

Good quality and weight for the price. I added tape intended for a baseball bat. Extra 7 bucks but worth it..otherwise handle a bit slippery.. .Now it's perfect..for tires or a scumbag intending harm...

If you want to carry some protection in case another driver cuts you off and you wave at them and have to pull over to wish them well this will ensure if they try to firmly shake your hand you can introduce them to some imaginary stars.

I walk at night because I live in the deep south. This is easier to carry than a baseball bat and offers some protection.
