👉 A hitting weapon is any object or tool designed for striking, thrusting, or slashing purposes, commonly used in self-defense and combat scenarios. Examples include fists, knives, sticks, batons, and even baseball bats or hockey sticks. These weapons are chosen for their ability to deliver forceful blows effectively, often targeting vulnerable areas like the face, chest, or abdomen to incapacitate an attacker quickly and efficiently. Proper training in handling these weapons is crucial to maximize their effectiveness while minimizing the risk of injury.
