At my friends house, they got a cardboard box with some really old stuff that his grandpa had. We were digging through it and we found a blackjack. We thought it was the funniest thing, until we tested it out on ourselves. That silly looking leather bat hits with the power of a thousand freight trains! You'd have to be from another planet to be crazy enough to mess with someone who had a blackjack in their hand.
Thanks for this video. I never was clear on what these weapons were. I wasn't sure if a club was essentially the same as these, but you've set me straight. Much appreciated.
Cool vid. I`m a collector of blunt weapons and used to own a flat sap. You didn`t mention the fact that you can strike with the edge of the sap(it`s like iron) for a more concentrated,devastating and focused trauma site (i.e. deadly). Thanks for uploading.
Decades ago, my next door neighbors went to the states and bought back a tan hide black sap a tiny little thing, only 8inches long. But quite heavy towards the tip, with a mean wallop. I’ve always wanted one for self defense. There awesome.
When I was a Child they were very commen.4-8 oz,6-8in long.Made to stun/ Stagger .The ones carried by Police were 9-14ins.Long.10-20oz weight.One Shot Stops.You Defended Your Self With the Blackjack.You subdue suspects and Take Them into Custody with Your Baton.That was the Theory..
I'm here because I read US military veteran Isaac Woodard was blinded in both eyes in 1946 South Carolina by police chief Shull because of lethal combination of racism & police brutality.
My dad told me about the blackjack. He carried one back in the day in his home country. Mind you this was WWII & self defense was a must. So like you said this go way back. Also as you said they are lethal! Not to be handled by kids. People listen to this fellow he's not joking how dangerous they are. Maybe watch the video again. Peace.
I have a blackjack that I found in my a box of things that was my grandpa's. I have a friend that keeps asking me if I will sell it to him. No, is what I keep telling him. I live in Arizona but don't know if they are illegal to carry here. Right now it hangs on the wall as a conversation piece but per your suggestion it may end up next to my seat in my car. I live in a small town that is pretty quiet and slow not a big city but you never know. We have road rage here too. It is well used but still in very great shape and the pattern and two-tone color of the leather is nice. I think it is a Bucheimer from pictures I have been looking up on the internet. Thank you for your video and the information. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
Hail fellow Arizonian! Everything is legal in our great state including that blackjack. Knives, guns, blackjacks, saps, brass knuckles they are all legal here in Arizona to carry open or concealed. Just make sure if you have to use it you use reasonable force. With a blackjack never strike someone in the head with it unless you are in a situation where you would be justified in shooting them. That blackjack will crush a skull easy peasy. Happy trails sister
subscribed. was playing battlefield hardline and got killed by someone who got me with a black jack. never heard of it and looked it up. my search brought me here. very informative. thank you blade t s master !
Pretty awesome video . black jacks seem like no joke. id love to keep one in my truck too incase someone tries to reach in . Just to have one in the car for protection really. Anyone know how to purchase one of these?
Nice vid Sir. Regarding Sam Gearhart's observations... be nice, at least the kid did a vid on this subject, I haven't seen a much better vid yet. A few thoughts.... 1. I'm told, by some "Ol Timers" that back in the day it was an insult for a true "Black Jack Artist" to hit a guy more than once to kill him or...if desired...knock him out. 2. The "Slap-Jack" was designed (I'm told) to be gentilier than a Black Jack. Psst... but if you turn it sidewaze, you can cut a guys ears or nose off!!! 3. I carried a slap-jack on duty and I still carry a black-jack now everyday. I like options in my state of Pennsylvania, I'm also a concealed carry permit holder. Check with the laws in your state! But, carrying a "Jack" gives you an option instead of just shooting someone.
I looked up but could only find light weight Blackjacks for less than $50. Where do I find some great quality, new condition, heavy duty Blackjacks??? How to buy the one which lasts forever and which is also heavy enough. Please let me know, anyone? Thanks in advance!
Boston leather makes a pretty.good quality mass market version in several designs and thicknesses, cheaper than the custom jobs, get a Texan 4-ply if you want heavy. I like the 4-ply Denver with loop handle myself
In a lot of us states certain weapons are legal to possess in the home or in a private vehicle (and to use in dire circumstances, but illegal to carry on the person.
I am always amused with "thats illegal"comments. The usa is a big country. What is illegal in one place might be legal up the road. Some states dont restrict "impact weapons", some do. The "usual offender" states outlaw dam near anything for a citizen (cali, NY, NJ , maryland. ILL., mass., hawaii..................When people says "thats not legal where i live" Then I say why do you live in police states? Places where only police can protect themselves are police states.......dont like the truth, then keep pretending you arent a serf...............
@@thearchives446 That's a state law smooth-brain, not federal, and if you'd had a concealed carry permit. It would've been legal in Florida, not to mention even without the permit you would've been let go if you'd called it a fish bat.
A blackjack or termed by some as a Sap is perhaps the best self defense weapon ever devised. They are illegal to carry in almost every state. You can carry a gun legally, but you can't carry a blackjack legally. If you swing one of these at a threat you will be put in prison. Oddly a Blackjack is considered a deadly weapon. Which if applied below the head is not fatal. Never hit anyone in the head with one. It will kill them. I carry one when on the street no matter the legality. And have only needed to use it a couple times. And hitting someone in the elbow for example puts the threat down. This tool is not legal. So beware of the consequences if you use one.
Hoodoo Man .... If you swing one of these you will magically be put in prison, you say. You also say you have used one, so you are saying you get arrested every time you have used a blackjack. Maybe you should be smarter than the cops.
WOW! Thought I would never see a slap-jack again or see someone who actually knows what one is. My grandfather had one a loooooong time ago that the chief of police gave him along with a Colt 38 Dective Special because of all of the civil rights stuff and riots going on. Still have the Colt but lost the slap-jack.
It's still deadly, it works perfect and will break their knee but I've never used it. It's got a lot of wear but looks perfect. If you were getting jumped that thing won't do a thing for you. Mostly likely trying to use that will get you hurt even worse.
Practice with anything you carry, I train a few times a week and can draw and fire from concealment in about half a second, a third of a second is all it takes to deploy my knife or blackjack. I'm not particularly fast just practice my draws + draw+strikes after getting dressed in the morning, start slow, achieve smoothness, then speed will come.

Oh, and a Black Jack is faster, quicker, quieter and less bloodly than a knife.
Also, they're illegal in my state (PA.) :-(
How much do you chareg to make them?

I know this has nothing to do with the video, but Garret from Thief has a blackjack right?
TheXtreme106 He does.
I made my own. I'm making a new one.
Hey man i have one but its tan thanks for explaining it to me
Is the slap one illegal to cary
Its only illegal if you give a shit about paternalist laws. If you have a real conscience, don't worry about it.
Just curious if you say it is illegal why do you carry it in your truck? Is it only illegal in certain states?

Great vid
I see a few online, but nothing that looks quite like that... anyone got a lead?
i got the 8oz one so its not as deadly i think.
His grandfather got both from from police officers? Even though the slapjack was almost brand new 🤔
The slapjack was probably purchased as a gift from a police supply house in the days before being able to buy stuff online.
i carry my blackjack witch i got from a cop and by the way i carry my 380 also...killed 3 pits that were attacking people IM A HERO
It's an ambush weapon but thanks. I wanted to make one.
Did you eventually make one?
Shattering Bones :)
hit hard enough to knock out. not to kill.
WOW! Thought I would never see a slap-jack again or see someone who actually knows what one is. My grandfather had one a loooooong time ago that the chief of police gave him along with a Colt 38 Dective Special because of all of the civil rights stuff and riots going on. Still have the Colt but lost the slap-jack.
You better use your wand and "expelliarmus" spell for your deffence, Harry.
