Can you suggest a very effective but non-lethal martial arts stick for self defense?

I live in a small town and the closest I can find to a relevant class is chinese sword training.

Can you suggest a very effective but non-lethal martial arts stick for self defense?
any weapon is lethal in the hands of someone that knows how to use it.you would be surprised at what an expert can kill or injure you with.unless you are adept at using a weapon you are better off not to carry one.it's quite easy for someone who knows how to take it of you and use it on you or someone else.besides which most ma weapons are impracticle to carry anyway.


you would be better off doing ma and learn weapons in conjunction with that.
Reply:I agree with Bushide any weapon is lethal in the right hands and if you are not adept in it do not carry it until you are. Report It

Reply:There is no such thing as a non-lethal stick. Any stick can kill if it's jammed into the head.
Reply:the non lethal part of a weapon is the user. you use it to stun, or you use it to kill, that's your choice. no weapon is non lethal.
Reply:You could try one of these. Cops use them also.

Reply:I'm not sure why you want to learn to defend yourself with a stick, are you planning on carrying a stick around with you? The most effective form of self defense when your opponent is not a trained fighter is clearly Brazillian Jiu Jitsu.
Reply:Goto a lumber yard, buy a 1"-1.5" dowel. Get a hard wood obviously. The guy above me is right, are you going to carry this stick around? I have a stick, but I keep it in my house, where I also have a rifle and 2 handguns.
Reply:Sword training is hardly non lethal, %26amp; you'd attract a lot of unwanted attention walking around carrying 1. Look in neighboring towns. I'd be surprised if there aren't some empty handed MA schools somewhere near by. As for non lethal, grappling styles generally can be used with less injury to your attacker. They have their limitations though.
Reply:If you want to learn to stick fight learn the art of Arniss Kali Silat, a Phillipino style of stick fighting and you could use heavy rubber made sticks that are less lethal than a wooden one. THe term non lethal really does not get used anymore in terms such as these even with the police or Feds, they call it less than lethal now but not necessarily non lethal, mistakes and errors can be made even with bean bag guns hitting you in the eye.

Click schools one you get to the site. See if there is one close to you.
Reply:Non lethal? Do you really want that? Where will you be carrying the sticks around? If you even plan to carry it around on you, I believe you could get charge for assault if you use it on someone unarmed, even if they attack you first.





As for home defense, why would you want to do something non lethal? Do you really want to worry about not hurting the invader while the invader probably would be bent on trying to kill you or seriously injury you? That sounds like perfect recipt for disaster. Even if you did use stick and hurt the person badly, guess what? They'll sue you so hard that you'll lose everything you own! That's why it's alway better to have a gun and learn how to kill a person with a single shot. That way you can take someone out from distance without worrying about them sue you.
Reply:I would suggest the Irish Whiskey Dance, which is a style of Irish stick fighting that is pretty much like boxing while hanging on to a sturdy stick.





While it is a less than lethal style, it can style cause very severe injuries to an unprotected body.
Reply:Jodo is a small staff- maybe look in that direction
