It was designed by a Filipino Stick and Dagger Fighting Master and hand made from exotic hardwood from Thailand, by his wife Nok, for whom the self-defense tool is named.  The Nok is only 6 inches in length but it is a truly impressive self-defense tool.  While the design is relatively simple, the Nok has many different uses in a self defense situation. The Nok carries comfortably in the hand where it is ready for use, and the best part is, to be effective it does not require any strength.  You will be able to bring the Nok instantly into play during a surprise attack and it will allow you perform a self defense maneuver and clear space between you and your attacker so that you can access a live blade, firearm, or run away, escaping danger.  We also sell a training model of the Nok, which has a dull, rounded impact point to maximize one's safety while practicing and learning the applicable self defense techniques of the Nok.
