- Alpha Hornet The "Alpha Hornet" is the latest in the line of personal self-defense products by Alpha Innovations LLC. We have informally titled this a "kubaton on steroids." Designed in conjunction with Officer Myron Gaudet. Formerly, Myron was hired by the United Nations as the Head of Defensive Tactics, Kosovo Police Training School. He is well versed in Police defensive tactics as well as martial arts and his input was invaluable in arriving at the final design. This product was designed with law enforcement in mind. It can be used for thumb side strikes, hammer fist strikes and open hand strikes. It is not recommended for straight punches. The protrusions on the ends are for joint locks and pressure point compliance and the contoured bottom works very well for grappling techniques. With proper training, the hornet allows for full dexterity of the hands and fingers in multiple ranges of close combat. This allows for the simultaneous deployment of other equipment or options, helping to eliminate vulnerable transition time. This is an incredibly effective tool for Law Enforcement and civilians alike. The Hornet is made from the same incredibly rigid reinforced polymer as our other great products. Our Alpha Hornet measures 1/4" thick x 1-3/4" wide x 6-1/2" long and it has a textured matte finish that further aids in gripping. There are holes on either end for key rings or lanyards.
