Smith & Wesson 21 inch Baton

What a nice stick. This steel baton is really sturdy and well built with a descent weight to it, and the handle almost sticks to your hand giving you a nice solid grip. During expansion, it snaps out soundly and locks securely into place. Getting the friction lock to let go was a task at first until I figured it out, and now I can pop it back in with little effort against a small piece of wood. A reliable defensive tool.

I was somewhat apprehensive about buying a baton. Years ago I had bought one and it fell apart straight out of the box. However, this time around I had the internet to do research. I didn't want to spend a lot but didn't want a piece of junk either. The S&W 21 in. heat treated baton had many more pros than cons. It came today and the quality is outstanding. I recommend this one. Being heat treated adds strength and that's what I got. Many other sites/stores do sell this at $60.00 and up. Almost feel as if I took advantage of BudK. Almost!

Great Baton. I carry it with me at work. Didnt like the holder it came with but everything else about it is great. Easy to handle in open or close spaces.

great baton. easily locks solid, hits hard. a great buy. thanks budk.

Just received my S&W Baton and it has a solid feel with some weight to it unlike some inexpensive models that are too lightweight to be effective. I like the way it easily locks into place once deployed. Also the rubber grip is comfortable and non-slip. I am pleased with purchasing this product.

Received product in timely fashion...good quality and easy to open. Seems to be of quality construction with a heafty weight.

A lot heavier than I thought. Easy to open. A good length easy to conceal. Difficult to close. My wife yelled at me for banging it closed on the floor. Should close using a hard concrete surface.
