A tactical pen is nothing more than a high-quality pen that provides all the same attributes as a purpose-designed "fist load" weapon like a Kubotan or yawara stick, but in the form of an ordinary-looking pen that can be carried virtually anywhere. But what really makes a tactical pen "tactical" is your ability to power it with a sound set of physical skills.
In this groundbreaking video, acclaimed self-defense instructor Michael Janich gives you those skills and dispels the many myths that surround the use of pens in self-defense. His step-by-step program includes everything you need to know to actually use a pen as an effective personal-defense weapon, including: equipment selection, proper grip, carry options and draws, striking methods, and pressure-point tactics. More importantly, it teaches you how to integrate the pen into a complete set of combative mechanics, making it a force multiplier that works in concert with empty-hand parries and strikes, elbows, knees, kicks, and foot traps.
To isolate and develop the critical skills of the system, Janich teaches you a simple series of reflex training drills-partner drills that quickly instill the structure, timing, accuracy, and power necessary to fight effectively with a pen. Along the way, he puts every skill into context, demonstrating simple, practical, yet devastatingly effective counters to a
wide variety of street attacks. Once you've built a sound foundation, this video teaches you how to apply the concepts of the system beyond rote technique, dynamically combining its combative elements and scaling their intensity to fit the nature of the threats you face.
Without the skills and confidence to power it, a tactical pen is just a pen. This video will help you realize its true potential and teach you what you need to know to make it a viable defensive weapon.

When I saw the length of the video I thought it was going to be a lot of promotional talk. Boy was I wrong. This video was hands down one of the best most informative self defense from multiple attack angles I have seen in a while.
Finally...a legitimate,easily explained,effective instructional!!! Great job!!😊
"Well this is not anything new.. -Your welcome!" I just love these vids, keep up the good work!
"Well this is not anything new.. -Your welcome!" ... watched 4x at 0.25 speed and all is new and i can not reproduce it :D
@Carrilee Kindheart ""
Entertaining! Not 100% convinced about real life application though.
@@TheAtomicBear If you can't block a strike and retaliate with one of these simple techniques (what the video is all about) then I would highly recommend that you leave your tactical pen at home and run away from any threat ever.
This is one of the best self defense videos I have seen. Most show unrealistic ideas of strength and unrealistic scenarios. Your video was great and extremely informative, showing good examples of what can happen and what to expect from an attack. Thanks!
This is one of the most impressive and informative vids Ive seen on self defense. Thanks a lot.
Thanks Michael for great videos. I was introduced to your work in an edged weapons class. You were the expert interviewed in the videos we watched. Your videos and at home training were highly recommended.
I been keeping one of those pens in my pocket for years, thanks to you I can practice the exercises to train to use it effectively.
I like the clear training technique. Practical and focus. Videos are filmed at good angles so i could view clearly what Mike is trying to show me.
Best video on a tactical pen I've seen so far.
This is excellent series. Looking very much forward to viewing the entire program! Thank you...
Thank you I use the uzi pen with the glass breaker point. I have learned a lot from your videos. Thank you so much for helping to keep my family safer I hope I never have to use it in that form but I train every day just in case.
Excellent video! Great training ideas. And, Michael Janich is my favorite non-lethal instructor.
Outstanding! Thank you Sir.
Semper Fi
StaySafeMedia,thank you I could have used this teaching technique a couple of days ago,all the best,Merry Christmas
Great vid. Lots of great advice & tips. Many thanks. "Stay safe"
Very good advice on justification of use of lethal techniques.
Thanks Michael for the video I've been following you in various magazines since the mid 1980s... I still have my original Spyderco endura generation 1. But my daily carry life is my Spyderco delica.. mostly for opening packages and cutting things but definitely as a backup to my other self-defense methods my carry pistol and my pepper spray... I do carry a tactical pen with me.. and of course when I travel everything I have is carry on so I can't carry any weapons My tactical pen comes with me everywhere
excellent lesson! thank you!
looking at junkyard aikido, wow I am awed, these discs have so much useful info. I don't think I have enough life time left to learn all this but I'm taking it piece by piece and putting parts together to practice, refine, alter, or change to my comfort levels. I want to have a plan with several options that I slide into based on the situations development. Thank you for making these available and sharing so much.
Whoever think Tactical Pen is useless in real life situation, give some child a pen (10yrs old, not more) and let him hit you in any muscle you chose. Just once. Then let us know does it hurt and how much. My point is, every hit with TP, no matter in which part of body hurts like hell because of concentrated force. It is one of the best self defense tools you can wear. Training is always good, but with this tool you can get out of shit even without some serious training. If you attacked, just hit few times wherever you can and run. Great video btw. :)
Child or adult im not LETTING them do shit. Its notnuseful if you cant fight. Period
Exactly. Its funny how the average Joe sees a tactical pen and giggles. Like a little school girl. But if he evers gets hit by one, and not even by full force, I guarantee you he WILL cry like a little girl. I have the Böker Plus 45 cal. Titanium and feel sorry for the poor SOB who I will have to use it against. If he ever makes the mistake of endangering the saftey of my family or myself.
The ones with a glass breaker on the end would go right through someones head. The people who laugh at that are the same people who laugh at blackjacks and saps for being floppy. One strike to the head with that and you'll have a life of epilepsy ahead of you for sure!
Just want to say Thank you Sir for another demo and that these vids are another avenue to add to one's martial tool box. There's plenty of "What If's" that one can come up with. Most of the responses are based on personal experiences, what people hear or have seen etc etc. Sifu Janich is not trying to engage every scenerio & life situation. Take this info for what it is, if you like it and can use it ..good, if you dislike it, just don't use. Simple
Excellent. Various techniques. Outstanding. Semper Fi, Combat Marine
Excellent video and solid techniques.
This is really helpful! I'm 16 and a tactical pen is a great way to gain an advantage when attacked by someone larger than you. Also easy to hide so it's a nice feeling of security when that one creep follows you in the dark
Excellent, very informative video thank you!
Honestly I felt a little deterred by these videos but simply understanding how a person strikes at you is the most valuable info. Thanks gentlemen.
this is great advice thanks
Thank you very much for sharing this vídeo Sir. It is very useful and real. Greetings!
many thanks, i apriciated your answer.
Just ordered this video. Also volumes #2 & #3 to complete the 3 piece suit, of "Practical Unarmed Combatives", of which I already own volume #1. I find these very informative and helpful, See something more each time I watch it and am practicing blocking, cycling, and down on my back, with a heavy bag. Taking me much farther than my boxing training did, and, I've grown older with a different focus, more for street defense. Finally I found somebody showing the nitty/gritty stuff I wanted. Thank you. Damithurt silat is the balls, love the 'no offense but don't give a rats ass' approach, this stuff works for me.
I may be moving into an iffy neighborhood soon, and my tactical pen is on its way. This vid helps give me the confidence to defend myself. Thanks. :)
Great explaination! Tanx!
Michael Janich is the man!
Excellent video
Interesting & pedagogic vodeo. Thank you
Thanks for sharing, Sir. I have learned from your edged weapon training videos and appreciate this on the pen. BTW, love the "This is nothing new, you're welcome" comment! LoL!!!
Excelllent technique . Always practice multiple moves that start the same way. Learn 3-4 moves that start from the same position and i guarantee one of those moves will stick in your head better then the other ones did.
Hey guys! Valuable information again! You are pretty much in line with our philosophy! Keep up the good work :-)
Those tuff writer pens look really nice. I like that they have models that don't look like a weapon. It's also really nice that they come in purple, my favorite color. The downside is that they are a bit expensive. The purple pen is close to $100. It would really suck to lose a $100 pen. That said, I am a big fan of improvised weapons. So I may have to save up for a tuff writer to replace the united defense pen that broke.
This channel is awesome this guy is awesome I can't believe I found this bit of information for free online thank you very much sir true story 4 days after seeing first video I well me and my girlfriend were attacked or attempted to be attacked at a fair not going to say what went down due to this man's videos I was able to protect myself accordingly thank you very much sir I appreciate it keep up the good work
Thanks 4 the info.
thank you for teching. Sir.
I have been carrying one for at least ten years. Started with a stainless Parker pen. Later switched to a CRKT. It looks good writes well. Once was told I could not take it into court house after a week of jury duty where I took it each day except the last day a younger cop said it was a weapon and offered to keep it so I did not need to walk back to my car. He just wanted the pen, so I walked to my car and left it for the day.
Thank you so much!!
Respect!!! very good
Love the uneducated and ignorant comments. You're not necessarily killing someone for punching you. use discretion, choose a different area to attack.
also to those who mock this instructor and this weapon. I will give you $1000 if you let me defend myself against you with a rolled up magazine. And afterwards you do not have severely bruised if not broken wrists, ribs and more
Or a rolled-up, folded newspaper. It's like being struck with a baton.
deal. but you start with the magazine flat like you are reading it.
@@DCavalcade They do this over in place where there are futbol riots. They bring a pocket full of change and a newspaper to the game, then once they get past security they load up the newspaper with the coins, fold it up and they go around in groups fighting each other with these makeshift bats.
Pretty good video. Obviously very knowledgeable and well spoken. I got a few of these on the way for me and my wife but I suspect there is to much technique here rather that fight or flight stab for the face eyes and run.
Excellent stuff Guro Janich!! Are you offering any seminars in the near future? I truly enjoy you sharing your talents with us...God Bless Tony
Appreciated!
This was a great video Mr. Janich. I carry a knife and pistol everywhere except...work. I cannot carry as you said a purpose built weapon in my job, i am not allowed, there is alot of security where i work, and i am checked every day passing through and out. Needless to say i discovered a long time ago that a tactical pen is great for me, there are also a couple of friends of mine that carry them in work as well, these can be a devastating weapon if wielded correctly, thank you again.
Excellent !
I purchased the full video and I like it a lot. A very good add-on to aikido. I live in the EU and no guns are allowed here (fortunately); a tactical pen is the most obvious everyday weapon esp. for an office worker.
Yes, thanks for the opening and closing comments about non-permissive environments, underscoring the need to have a "backup to your backup"!
excellent material I assume this can be applied to other small length tubes as well
I put a lanyard on mine and made a kydex holster for easy deployment.
Finally some good info on use of Tactical Pens. A lot of companies selling these without the back up of training. Where I live you can't carry any form of weapon for self defence. So this makes perfect sense. Granted I do some years of martial arts experience, but anyone with some basic knowledge will have a great tool at the disposal. I'm not going to argue or agree with the comments on this page whether or not its right or wrong just get out of your armchair and train. Every one has different reasons to train what ever the style and granted you can do the same with a bic pen. The companies are just filling a market but i would rather have steel to plastic.
cool vid! thanks!
Very good
Janich is the real deal. Nice guy, too.
Most of these moves are Eskrima techniques.
Always remember reasonable use of force. I have done 6 months prison time over a fine line case which was judged excessive use of force in self defence. Such outcomes are a true possibility and reality that mustneeds be paid close attention to. Take a great deal of care when it comes to any kind of self defence weapon. Whatever level of damage that you do to an attacker must be relative to the threat. If they have no weapon, you would be better using your empty hands to defend yourself. Ending up in prison is not really a very successful self defence outcome, as you will likely be fighting more battles in there.
Ok. Please do tell me what happened?
Thanks
I would add a note (which was also mentioned by the trainer) to those watching this video, just because a person is throwing a punch at you doesn't (by itself) give you the legal or moral right to shove a tactical pen (equivalent of a knife) into their carotid artery or even use it at all. You have to evaluate the totality of circumstances and deem your attacker as a lethal threat and evaluate the situation. The tactical pen is LETHAL FORCE, period, and you need to justify it's use (again not just legally but morally). For example, some guy in a bar who want's to throw a punch because he's an asshole doesn't need a tactical pen to the skull. Now that same guy in the alley with two of his buddies saying, something like "we're gonna kill you" is different. That's only one example. But the totality of circumstances add up to lethal force in that situation.
Carrying a small palm sized can of pepper spray along with a knife or tactical pen or even a gun can be a great tool to add some buffer of defense between hands and lethal force. All i'm cautioning people about is use what is necessary to stop the threat, nothing more and nothing less than that.
I don't know what world your living in, but nowadays is killed or be killed
If someone is trying to kill me then yes, i will kill them. Other wise, I refuse to kill a man just because he wants to throw a punch in a bar or something. If i kill someone i want it to be justified in my own mind for the rest of my life, not always thinking about the man i killed who didn't want to kill me....
Tregeta A punch can kill you. If the guy throws the right punch, it will kill you. I've seen guys killed with one punch. I'm not taking no chances, I'm gonna do what I have to do to save myself.
"can kill you" while technically true you can't justify stabbing someone in the skull because of it because a punch is NOT considered lethal force by itself unless other factors play into it. Drive a good kick into his balls, break his nose, perform a good judo wrist lock and/or break his wrist.
If you can fight with this tactical pen the way that's shown in the video, then you're capable of doing those things. The only time that pen comes out is if you are faced with more than you can handle without the pen, when you actually think your life is in danger. I believe in self defense completely, but in your logic every bar fight would end up with at least one person dead, think about it.
Tregeta No you'd instead go for a place less lethal.
I prefer the coldsteel kubotan. Both sides are pointed, and where you hold it, it's specially designed to lay your finger in grooves for best grip. It's hard plastic so very light also. It's found on their site under training weapons.
I think you missed his point about "non permissible environments" go to 1:35 he explains it......But you better be prepared to justify your actions, as using a weapon could be turned on you, as assault with a deadly weapon comes to mind.
awesome
some tac pens are sharp on both ends, do you recommend those? (thumbs cannot support the sharp ends)
I really like the pen that he has here. What is the name of it?
look I know some of you think that this Is useless but the tactical pen comes from an acient weapon known as a kubaton used in ninjitsu and I think samuri also used it,now the kubaton was literally just a metal rod and it took down hundreds to thousands of people who use to use swords,and since all this is is an updated verion of the kubaton it is just as effective and could kill or hurt someone very easily,even with a crowbar swinging ,now you don't HAVE to take my word for it but I am a legal sensei and have been for quite some time so I do know what I am talking about
chopstick thrower the kubaton is not ancient. It was Invented by Takayuki Kubota in the late 70s.taught to police for none lethal control of suspects... it was based on a ancient weapon called the Yawara which is much larger.kubatons.com/kubatonhistory.html
I practice the blak artz...mo. is a stand ur ground state/castle doctrine...
I like the idea of a tactical pen, since you can carry it anywhere. Discreet and effective. I specifically chose a blunter tactical pen because I want to use it as an intermittent level of defense before my knife comes out.
Anyway, although I agree with the thumb on top of the pen for grip, if someone was attacking me with that grip I would go for their easily accessible thumb and lock it to their wrist causing them so much pain they would drop the pen. That being said, a defensive stance where the pen is not so available to your attacker (as in your pen hand back behind your other hand) would probably be better, at least in my opinion. Just my 2 cents.
I got two survival pens today! :D
Nice
Mike Janich is a god
So tactical pen vs 3 spike kubaton (apart from regional legality)
Havent hit anything with real force but 3 spike seems like it slip/slide/loose orientation with straight punch type strike.. any advice? (My city is wild af)
thanks alot sir :D at least i've learn something :D and great advise :D really2 appreciate it :D
hi i like your videos, i live in denmark and would like to know if anny ordenary, easy to obtain, pen could be used as a tactical/deffensiv, pen.
if you hav anny insigthe in this matter i would appriciated to hear about it.
regarts JT
The TSA apparently allows screw drivers or most hand tools that are of 7 inches or less. Would a 6 3/4 inch flat head screw driver not be more effective than a tactical pen? Understanding it may look out of place of course carried in open view.
I am here to become a Tactical Pen Master and am very serious about it complimenting my Nunchuk skills.
That’s going to leave a mark.
not sure if this was answered but my opinion is yes ..any Metal pen can work. tuffwrighter was a mod that is a clicky pen ver in this video looks like a real pen not a Benchmade weapon its the red pen at the end.. they can split a log search tuffwrighter here on YT or google it
Patty cake, patty cake, baker's man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can;
Roll it up, roll it up;
And throw it in a pan!
You can see these guys has had a lot of training.
Hey MO! Hey LARRY!
thank you for your advice. Today I was in a situation were I used my tactical pen for self defense using techniques this video.
As canetas tem quebra vidro em umas das pontas. Como apoiar ?
Yea its a very awesome weapon. And I have just made a video on how to make a kubaton with shaving razor. Anyone who wants to make it go and watch it. Its the easiest way to make yet effective😊😊 and personally I saved a life with my handmade kubaton once.
Which carhartt baggys are these exactly ?
You guys are awesome!
Your just jealous because your not making the video chump!
I have been training my whole life in the private and public service related aspects. I love Krav Maga and it works better than most martial art forms. This is my opinion, I'm sure everyone has their own favorite art form. I have used Krav Maga for many years and is proven on the battlefield. This program is just another tool for you to use. Yes I do believe in the pen is mighty than the sword if you ask me. Thanks for the great video.
Try me on huckleberry if you can. You obviously don't know close quarter's fighting. If you were one fists length away from me or in my face talking shit and you tried to make a move. I guarantee you that you wouldn't know what hit you. All you have to do is see me up close and try to fight me like you think you can. Because it doesn't appear that I have a weapon. You know come in close and all you have to do is touch me. And it's a wrap. You think I'm going to try and take on someone from a distance away. Of course if you had a crow bar you better make sure you take them out with one blow. Hate to disappoint you but you never mentioned it in the beginning. Try not to lead with a hypothetical or open ended questions next time?
Ryan Blake did you watch the video? THE CROWBAR ATTACK IS IN THE FUCKING VIDEO. You dumbfuck.
More Like ShittyMcheeseDickFace!!! I bet you watch the whole volume set. It just goes to show you don't know how to fight! ShittyMcheeseDickFace...
These are moves, albeit less refined, from Wing Chun. Check out 'Chi Sau' demonstrations.
what makes this pen different from a normal pen
Qual é o modelo da caneta branca ?
As I'm trying to mimic your arm motions it's a bit confusing between 'takes' when you're facing first L arm toward camera, then the next shot is R arm to camera. I'm having to re-orient myself to match and mimic. I understand you're trying to emphasize certain points, but it helps if you keep one or the other arm toward camera (i.e. downstage) the whole time as you move, slow motion, through the drill, like 5 or 6 stop points/freeze-frames through the motions. Like they say, 'Go slow, to Go fast".. Great videos, though, I've watched them over and over.
Sweeeettt! Semper Fi
Omg Great trainer.... At some mmt it's look like it hit on his face... Great demonstration...
By coincidance i got pulled out of all the passengers in the airport when i came back from vacation, i bought a knuckleduster but didnt realize it was an forbidden weapon in my country, the police searched my bags after i said i had that i'had it in my luggage (they've allready seen it on the scanner anyways, but they also found my coldsteel kobutan, i said it was also a defense tool and they said that was perfectly legal, so i always carry it everywhere without any worries :)
This is some serious Jason Bourne shit we got here.
Spider-Neo Mewtwo the Time Lord Terminator Guys who taught Matt know the same stuff mike does it's Philippine kali and Indonesian arts the foundations anyway..these are knife techniques Modded for PEN
I heard airlines now ban it? is it true? Thanks
-- Thank you very much for this instructive video. It's very important to have at least a basic knowledge of self-defense. There are very nice people in this World but there are several others that would eliminate you if they had their opportunity to do that, so we have to protect ourselves and to our love ones.
