(Used in Eskrima\u2026the Philippine martial art of stick fighting) APEX has a hard-thin spring steel edge\u2026the thin edge is rounded for police and civilian application.\u00a0 The kinetic energy from the APEX edge; is many-many more times more powerful than a strike from the wide round collapsible baton, or wide round rigid police baton, nightstick, or PR-24.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Compare the APEX Baton to a Collapsible Baton <\/strong><strong>&#8211; <\/strong>Although the APEX Middle Weight Baton may be lighter than some round police batons; the thin edge is faster, longer, and delivers much greater kinetic energy to target, and is the clear winner of this simple physics lesson. The APEX RazorBaton has a unique dual purpose.\n<ol>\n<li>First as a non-lethal impact tool; it will easily incapacitate, and\/or create compliance from a non-cooperating dangerous subject.<\/li>\n<li>Second, APEX can be transitioned into a formidable offensive weapon system (Against a lethal perpetrator). By using powerful Eskrima striking techniques; the kinetic energy from the ultra-fast edge of APEX\u2026will act similar to a sword\u2026without the razor-sharp cutting edge\u2026delivering massive kinetic energy even through heavy winter clothing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Less than Lethal Tool \u2013 Protecting Law Enforcement\u00a0<\/strong><strong>&#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>The Law Enforcement Baton &#8211; aka APEX Predator Series &#8211; APEX RazorBaton; is designed as a &#8220;less than lethal&#8221; tool for law enforcement and civilian protection.
