Batons & Nightsticks |
|
A club, cudgel, baton, truncheon, night stick, or bludgeon is among the simplest of all weapons. A club is essentially a staff, crock or stick, usually made of wood, and wielded as a weapon. Typically, a club is small enough to be wielded in one hand. Various kinds of clubs are used in martial arts and other specialized fields, including the law enforcement baton. The wounds inflicted by a club are generally known as bludgeoning or blunt-force trauma injuries. |
