The Kubotan Keychain, was initially created and developed by Grandmaster Takayuki Kubota as a tool for police officers to restrain suspects without permanent injury. It's popularity began in the mid-1970s when Grandmaster Kubota brought the weapon to the attention of the LAPD and began schooling female officers in its application. Because of its extreme effectiveness in breaking the will of unruly suspects with painful locks and pressure point strikes, the Kubotan is also dubbed the "Instrument of Attitude Adjustment". The Kubotan gradually expanded toward civilian self-defense application and is now one of the most popular and widely carried self-defense tools around.
The official Kubotan is a cylindrical stick, normally 5” long and constructed of aluminum alloy. The body of the Kubotan is marked with six circular grooves and there is a split ring and screw eye attached to one end for keys. It is often seen as an oversized key ring ornament.
The end of the Kubotan keychain may be used to punch with, or by grasping it by the key-ring portion it may be swung or flicked with some precision at an opponent. The kubotan is often carried instead of or as a complement to pepper spray.
The principal targets for use for self-defense are boney parts of the body, such as knuckles, forearms, bridge of the nose, or shins.
In addition to this, it is a very effective pressure point weapon that can attack any point a finger can, but with greater effectiveness. It’s techniques are greatly linked to 'empty handed' martial arts techniques and almost all its uses derive in some way from the art its included in. It’s one of the few weapons that adapts to an art, rather than having its own set of movements and uses.
