Looks good. Funny how anything out of the ordinary seems to ruffle some peoples' feathers. Not everybody is interested in "cleaning up" the look of their ride with smooth, sleek lines and tiny lights and such. I personally like either look.

I guess it depends. Try being the recipient of whatever was in arm's reach.

If you like it and wanted it, I am glad you found what you wanted. I am not coordinated enough to ride and kick azz so i will just ride. Be my luck i would tie myself up like a hog with it. Nice braiding. Looks good.

The latest decision I could find (People VS Fannin, 2011) basically states that the Police / Prosecution have the burden to prove that you intended to use it as a weapon either through circumstantial evidence (whatever that would be) or direct evidence such as an admission that you carry it for that reason.

To sum up, a slungshot is a striking weapon consisting of a heavy weight attached to a flexible handle.   An ordinary object such as a bicycle lock configured like Fannin's, with the lock attached to one end of a chain, may be a slungshot.   The prosecution bears the burden of proving the defendant possessed such an object as a weapon. The prosecution may meet that burden with circumstantial evidence, or with the defendant's statements explaining why he carried the object.   On the other hand, the defendant may present evidence that he possessed the object innocently, for the purposes served by its legitimate design instead of those proscribed by Penal Code section 12020. - See more at: http://caselaw.findlaw.com/ca-court-....k4r6xms8.dpuf

So technically, no more illegal than a hairbrush.

I think they are kinda neat, easy on, easy off to fit your mood. But for me they must be leather, not para cord. They do tend to screw up cruise control.
