Here's how you'll look using it.

>>35192637
I watched some torture test videos and it seems pretty durable.

>>35192654
I'm not actually going to use it as a bo staff, i was planning on taping one end closed and using it as an extra large baton with a reserve in case those torture tests were just flukes.

>keeping a beating stick handy
>car

Why are you using ones that have moving parts to break? It's a car, you can stash a full size fixed bludgeon.

I would keep a bat in the car but for some reason thats actually more illegal than a baton.

Also a baton takes up much less space and i can keep it right between the seat and door or between the seat and center console.

Get a piece of steel pipe, 3 or so foot of it, and if questioned say it's a breaker bar for your tire iron.

>>35192770
"Why do you keep it by your seat when your tire iron is in the trunk?"

>>35192778
>Why do you keep it by your seat when your tire iron is in the trunk?
>Oh I forgot to put it back in the trunk when I was changing the brakes/rotating my tires a couple days ago.

>>35192778
>>35192795
>But officer, my truck doesn't have a trunk.

>>35192630
The design is silly because you can't use effectively the 5ft long reach, better get a generic 3ft long cudgel, it won't be as gimmicky, but that's actually not a bad thing.
Also
>bo staff
I know that anglophones have a hard time with this but "bo" means "staff" so that just paints you as ignorant.

UU! I know this!

it's a minbari fighting pike.
It's used by the rangers.

>>35192778
>not keeping your trunk full of bodies so you have an excuse to put stuff elsewhere

>>35193112
Can't speak for the US but in the UK everyone calls them a "bo staff" because "bo" is verbally identical to "bow" and people would get confused otherwise.

Seems like a retarded idea
In practical combat staves were not held in the middle like some sort of double-sided light-saber. You want to be able to maximise your reach by having your rear hand very far back. That sort of construction doesn't really allow for that

Just put a fucking wooden pole in the trunk if you really want to beat people with sticks in an emergency. You probably wouldn't need a long one anyway.

>>35193594
Why the fuck use some foreign word that is mildly confusing when we have an English word for it: Staff. Different lengths? Half-staff. Quarter-staff. Using some foreign word for a simple-ass piece of wood is just 80's martial arts weebism.

>>35193657
Because if you don't preface it with "bo" people won't know you're a disgusting weeaboo.

>>35193657
I think its like the difference between a violin and a fiddle, when you use it with a European fighting style its a regular staff and if you use it with an eastern fighting style its a bo

>The east will show no mercy today

>>35192740
carrying a bar is legal if you also have a ball and glove. just say that you keep meaning to get to the batting cage for practice but haven't made it there yet.

>>35193982
bat, not bar.

>>35192713
kek

>>35193889
A fiddle is physically different than a violin though. The bridge is filed down so you can hit three strings at once.

>>35193889
You wouldn't be able to use OP's abomination in the typical japanese way (which is most if not all the time like>>35193643 suggests), so why use a japanese word for it?
Staff is just fine.
