See what other say about our Unbreakable Umbrella

“During the Hapkido Cane DVD shoot with Paladin Press last month, I used an Unbreakable Umbrella to perform some of the techniques. This umbrella is an attractive functional umbrella, but also serves as a formidable weapon if needed. I beat on a heavy bag with it, and used it to perform cane techniques that incorporated striking and joint locking.”
—Alain Burrese, Missoula, Montana

http://www.burrese.com/attackbackblog.html .

“I was asked to test the Unbreakable Umbrella and did so with every intention of destroying it. It stood up to every kind of usage I could devise. My testing leads me to believe the Unbreakable Umbrella lives up to its name, and is indeed Unbreakable.”
—Dave McNeill, Soke

“Just a quick note to say thanks for the umbrella. I received it last week and I'm very happy with it.

“Perhaps unlike many of your customers I didn't buy your umbrella with self-defence in mind. I have bought something like twenty umbrellas over the last twenty years or so and each one has been disappointing in that they just seem to fall apart after an unacceptably short time - and I've never subjected any umbrella to more than light use. As a result I've been on the hunt for an umbrella that would stand more wear and tear so when I saw the Unbreakable Umbrella I figured that was the umbrella for me.

“Now I feel confident that my Unbreakable Umbrella will stand up to everything an umbrella should. Not only that, but the style of the umbrella is everything I could have wanted - it looks and feels right and it has a heft and a look that speak of a well-constructed quality product.”
—Ian Cooper, Wakefield, Massachusetts

“When I first saw this `Unbreakable Umbrella' I thought, `Is this guy
for real?' Now that I've thoroughly studied this product, I'm pretty
sure he is NOT screwing around. This is just a GREAT idea. I can't wait
to lay into my heavy bag with one of these!”
—Tim Schmidt, U.S. Concealed Carry—The Ultimate Resource for the Armed Citizen

“I would like to take a moment to tell you how happy I am with my new umbrella. Having been a martial artist for over 30 years I have always wished to find a umbrella that could stand the strain of being used in a true self-defense situation. Your umbrella has answered that call and more! Thank you very much.”
—Sifu Curtis Hendricks, Springfield, Missouri

“Our FMA training teaches us to be able to use items from everyday life. An umbrella obviously resembles a stick, but the simple fact is that all the umbrellas we've seen are too flimsy for most serious purposes. THIS ONE MEASURES UP. To confirm the claims made at http://www.self-defense.info/umbrella1.html I have put it through full power two-handed baseball bat swings at a heavy bag (I didn't bother to stand on mine though). The impact generated was impressive and the umbrella still readily opened with the push of a buttton. We think this umbrella measures up as a worthy self-defense tool--and as an umbrella too. Woof!”
—Crafty Dog (Marc Denny), Hermosa Beach, California

“As a Defensive Tactics Instructor and one who works with law enforcement and military personnel, I am usually quite critical of `self-defense fads.' However, I don't feel this product falls into that category. I think it would make for a very viable self-defense adjunct in someone's arsenal. It is a very innocuous utilitarian object that most people would not look twice at. That is, until they felt it's capabilities first hand.”
—Mike McGuire, Edmonton, Alberta

“The umbrella is great! I love the way that it opens up (very smooth) and it's very light yet feels solid. I feel the umbrella would be good in an encounter with more than one attacker or possible protection against a knife, hopefully never have to use it for that! I haven't tried it in the rain. I certainly feel safe walking around with it.”
—Guy Guneri, London, United Kingdom

“Well that was fast! My umbrella has arrived, and I'm very pleased with it. Just as advertised, it looks and carries just like a regular umbrella, but
the owner can feel the entire thing is unusually stout. In fact, the high quality, polished wooden handle is almost too solid! You can really do
damage with this umbrella, one solid blow to the head could easily drop a very large person.

“Thanks for the quick delivery and quality craftsmanship.

“By the way, do you plan on putting any of your videos on DVD? Here in Asia they jumped from a clumsy CD-Video format right to DVD, so there aren't any VHS machines around anywhere. I'd really like to order some of your fighting tapes on DVD, especially the Eastern European expert in street fighting techniques.”
—Mr. Pefers to Remain Anonymous, Tai Jung, Taiwan

“I just recieved my new Unbreakable Umbrella and am very happy wth the quality of construction. The crook end has a nice weight feel to it and I'm sure it will give me years of great service.”
—Doug Hayden, Seymour, Connecticut

“Just received the umbrella that I ordered. All is well and I am pleasantly surprised with the unit. Now I will walk not only with confidence but with
style as well, thank you again.”
—Milan Kloubek, Australia

“This is a totally different and ingenuous concept. The Unbreakable Umbrella. It is tremendously strong, is able to deliver a devastating strike, a powerful block and – above all – is an article which any young, middle- or old-aged person can carry perfectly legitimately. A (none aggressive) young man (who has no martial arts skills) cannot easily walk around with a walking stick or staff to protect himself. But an umbrella is a totally different matter. Even on a fine day an umbrella would not be viewed with suspicion by the general public or (hopefully) by the police. The Unbreakable Umbrella looks like an ordinary ‘breakable’ one!

“You will find full details at: http://www.self-defense.info/umbrella.html.

“I prefer the straight-ended version rather than the curved handle ‘normal’ type. I like to be able to deliver a direct butt smash to the face, but I suppose the curved handle type looks more ‘innocent’. A matter of personal preference really. All types are effective for practical personal protection.”
—John Roberts-James, Darlington, United Kingdom

“What excellent build quality, an excellent umbrella that looks like it will
last years and years of use. The curved handle version I bought makes it
fine as a walking stick for me, and it feels good to have it around when I
am out and about late at night. I am going to order another for my family,
this really is a solid, impressive piece of kit.

“You can quote me on that too if you wish (please hide my email).”
—Lynsay, Rochdale, United Kingdom

“I have two of your umbrellas and truly like them.”
—Dr. Silvernail Smith, Chicago, Illinois

“Just a quick note to say again how happy I am with your umbrella, which
I've now owned for about a year. It's still going strong and giving great
service when other umbrellas would probably have already started to fall
apart. In fact my wife bought an umbrella (not one of yours) at about the
same time and it's already in the trash - the handle came loose so she had
to buy another one. The shaft on your umbrella is so strong that, apart
from the umbrella's potential as a weapon of self defence, it works really
well as an all-in-one umbrella/walking stick.”
—Ian Cooper, Wakefield, Massachussets
