Anyone else carry one.
Each day I walk for an hour or so in a fairly large city near the edge of the Hot Zone which also bounds a large park and other walking areas.
Since the initial stage of many deadly and violent encounters are at contact distance the koppo seems like a great aux weapon which can be engaged with no delay while working toward a draw and retreat as appropriate. After practicing some relevant blade and striking techniques I was impressed and have carried one for a few years.
It’s carried IN the weak hand but can shoot with it (or dump it) – admittedly not as well or as quickly but my sense is the stick’s advantages outweigh the negatives.
Any thoughts?
