Book excerpt: In traditional budo, the Mini Stick as an effective means of self-defense is nothing new. There are comparable weapons in the different martial arts of a very wide range of countries, which have developed over the centuries. In Japan there is the kubotan; on the Philippines the closed balisong can be used in the same way as the Mini Stick, and today we use it as a key fob, but it is interchangeable with other short objects in practically all techniques. The author demonstrates the different ways in which the Mini Stick can be used. With 255 illustrations, the book takes the reader through maneuvers for getting free and possibilities of controlling your opponent to final techniques, with the aim of deciding dangerous situations clearly in favor of the defender. Two diagrams illustrating the pressure points show almost 50 possible attack targets on the human body with their labels.
