Tactical 4 way spinner??

[twisyblackmetal]

I was changing a tire on my truck the other day, and it got me wondering if anybody knew a manufacturer of a "tactical" (not crazy about that word, but don't know another way to describe it) 4 way spinner tool? just playing around with the idea. I mean, you have one in your trunk anyway right? Why not maximize it's potential as a defensive weapon? I surely cannot be the first one to think like this.....

uhh... its 2 18" long pieces of steel welded into an x-shape. They weigh about 4 lbs on average. They have socket heads welded on each end of the x.

what more do you need?

The "one way" tire iron was tacticool before that was even a word.

A 4-way looks a little unwieldy, but would be a HECK of a thrown weapon!

put some clip on points and it would be a super sized throwing star

Mercop did a pretty bad ass review on a 3 bladed ferris wheel of death! *DISCLAIMER*Be very careful, you are placed on a government watch list as soon as you watch the video.

I'm more thinking about a pry bar end, some sort of integral blade with protector, certainly forged steel. More of a demolition tool feel. I dont I'm thinking of a thrown weapon, even the shiruken were more of a distracting tool than a true "deadly weapon" from what I have read. Plus why would I let a perfectly good weapon out of my hands?
The last few 4 ways I have seen in autoparts stores have been relatively low quality round stock steel joined in the middle with a weld that looked like bird poop. Any body else snapped one while changing a tire? weeeeak.

Yes. I make one. It looks like a standard tire iron but each arm is wrapped with 550 paracord, making it a tactical tire iron. They are $80 each plus shipping.

With this thread title, I had such high hopes that we were going to be discussing a redheaded Scarlett Johansson lookalike.

Is there a waiting list??

I use a 1/2" drive breaker bar, with a short extension and an impact flip socket (3/4" on one end, 13/16" on the other).

It would make a great bludgeon. If I needed a bludgeon instead of a gun or knife.
