Somewhere in America, a woman is raped every 2 minutes.*

 It is estimated that 503,485 women are stalked by an intimate partner each year in the United States. ^

Pick up any newspaper, turn on any local or national news station, or go to your favorite internet news page, and you will find a story of at least one woman who is the victim of a violent crime.

How many times have you heard about a women being attacked while running? Last year in Orlando a young female runner was attacked, sexually battered and killed. Several years ago, a male attempted to drag a women into the woods in the Rockledge. She was able to escape. She did a great job in defending herself.

I purchased your Talon several months ago and have carried it daily ever since.  I am currently attending law school and since the campus
is a "Gun Free Zone" (don't get me started) my CCW does me no good, however my talon is always there.
Here's my review thus far:

SUPER LIGHT-WEIGHT!!!
Love the design.  I have showed it to several people and they have no idea what it is or what it is used for.  This is nice for people like me who must
travel in environments that frown upon weapons. Very intuitive.  Talon falls perfectly into place upon retrieval with very little training.

Keep up the good work,

     How using the Talon - Close Quarters Impact Weapon can save your life 

Just wanted to say thanks for the Talon and the great service you give.
You fixed my problem without any question as to the clip and all works well. I purchased 2 Talons so I could give one to my daughter and she carries it and "knows" how to use it. She's "proud" of it. She grew up with a Marine dad and was taught from an early age (and constantly reminded) of what measures to take and to be actively aware - always. Now that she has her own child she is even more conscious of her surroundings and has her Talon in hand. Being small and petite she has learned (taught) the importance of "disable quickly" with fingers, knees, elbows etc....and now Talon. (She has no problem with going for the eyes, Ha).
So thanks again for the fine product and best to you.
