Ideally if you’re under attack, you have your favorite knife handy, perhaps a sidearm, or at the very least that novelty mini bat you got at the baseball stadium before they outlawed them. Sadly, you probably won’t be in danger when the circumstances are ideal, which means you’ll be stuck fighting off an attacker–possibly armed, dangerous, and desperate–with whatever you have on hand.

A little Context
Female brass knuckles aren’t new and self-defense keychains for women are growing in popularity. Between February 2020 and March 2021, searches on Google for the term “self-defense key chain” and brass knuckles for women are increasing in demand. As with all weapons, using self-defense tools should be a last resort. But statistically attacks on women are increasing and it’s just not practical—or fair— for them not to be able to protect themselves.
Self-defense protection is like the protection of car insurance. You don’t say, “I’m not going to get car insurance because I feel the other driver ought to know how to drive.” You get car insurance because you want to protect yourself in the case the other driver doesn’t know how to drive. A great advantage of brass knuckles is that you can wear them around your knuckles, and they are easy to carry.
Historically, brass knuckles were pieces of metal shaped to fit around the knuckles. Despite their name, today they are often made from other metals, plastics, or carbon fibers. Designed to preserve and concentrate a punch's force by directing it toward a harder and smaller contact area, they result in increased tissue disruption, including an increased likelihood of fracturing the intended target bones on impact.
The increasingly popularity of “self-defense cat key chains”—kitty-shaped pieces of plastic have proliferated. Women’s brass knuckles are adorable and often sparkly. They’re meant to be worn on your fingers and used to sharpen a punch.
But there’s a reason to see these cute self-defense key chains as more than just a cute trend. Research suggests that self-protective devices can cause an attacker to retreat, often avoiding a confrontation of a woman and her attacker.
