Features & Benefits
The KEY To Our Success:
All other expandable baton manufacturers start with small tubes then "form and flare" the joint. This process stretches the steel from a small diameter tube to a larger flared tube which creates a thin and weak tube wall.
The RCB is the only expandable baton with "Machined" Strike tubes.
At Peacekeeper, we start with a larger diameter strike tube, then “machine or mill” the entire length of the primary strike tube on a computerized lathe. This process allows us to maintain the same wall thickness from the tip of the tube, all the way through the joint of each baton. This and other trade secrets also allow officers to perform jabbing techniques with out fear of the baton collapsing.

Facts vs. Myths
MYTH: Some people think that the Peacekeeper Baton is big and heavy.
FACT: We did not make a heavy baton. We merely slid the weight from the handle to the striking portion of the baton. (Where do YOU want the weight?)
MYTH: Since the handle is bigger, the weight is forward, and the tip is bigger than other expandable batons, it must be heavy.
FACT: If you hold your current baton by the tip or striking area, and a Peacekeeper Baton by the handle, you would not be able to tell which one is heavier. This is done at hundreds of trade shows around the country, and officer's admit they cannot tell the difference. Therefore when holstered, you cannot tell the difference. However, when used on a violent threat, YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE. The Peacekeeper is dubbed "The ONE and DONE Baton" in many states.
