I’ve had this by thing for five or so years and it’s great and I keep it full of quarters and I’m never completely broke lol, but the best thing about is if anyone wants my money and I don’t have anything else on me I can in-snap it off my belt and split someone’s skull open with it or just slap the excrement out of some tweeker . I’m into all kinds of weapons and always have been and I seldom leave here without coming back with something, and that’s why I don’t like to leave anymore because I don’t need the stuff anymore .

It’s sometimes called a Sap. I had one when I was a cop. Mine was filled a lead powder.
My duty pants had a small, but long pocket down the side of my right trouser leg that was designed for it.

Yea those were slap jacks or saps like you said and I had one that had a strip that your hand could go in and was full of lead but they are illegal for civilians to carry or have in ur vehicle but this “ change purse” isn’t because it has another function and the way it snaps on ur belt is great. I wish I could carry my Sipo or “ Asp” talk about a mysery dishing SOB when you wrap it around the back of someones neck the spring bends and takes skin with it lol When I worked at my bosses bar I snapped a guys collar bone with it and I left him on his knees crying like a baby .

I don’t know, of course the flashlight is but as far as the other Tommy Knockers go this ( W Va.) state has about the loosest weapons policies there is and I think they are illegal here. Makes no sense because you can carry concealed with no permit here but you get caught with a ASP or flip stick or a pair of knucks you’re in trouble.

Yeah I saw it. We used to make those when I was a teenager but filled them with lead fish weights which were permanently sewed in. We called them “Slap Happys”!

Man that’s great ! I’m gonna have to check it out but I always heard they was illegal but you can hear anything. Like I was saying they allow about anything that has to do with guns and knives to like no limit on the blade length so they should be ok, I mean just like a handgun you can’t use except in a severe situation

Yes. One of our friend’s dad was a leather tanner by hobby and he had a machine that could sew leather. He let his son keep scraps of leather and he(we) made those Slap Happys with it.

That sounds great, leather is good stuff and a lot of cool stuff can be done with it.
When I was young I worked at a Martha White flour mill that was here for many decades and was my first real job @ $ 5.80 an hour and that was pretty good money back then and about a dollar more than minimum wage but anyhow they bagged dog food in the basement and had a big sewing machine like the one your buddies dad had probably, it was a big thing to sew up big bags of dog food big burlap sacks and the needle on it looked more like a nail

I grabbed one of these leather stitching kits a decade ago. Very handy for making holsters for your axes, etc. I’ll check to see if OR has a law against the sap, er, I mean “change purse”.
