Yoogo - Self Defense Keychain

When the package first arrived I took one look at it and went oh no. But having previously watwaed the videos on the yoogo website I decided to give it a go. Sure glad I did. Even with my oversized hands middle ring size finger 15, I was able to grip and effectively use against my sparrtng partner. Said partner having been punched a couple of times with the device decided to order one too. We were both quite shocked with the effectiveness of this tiny little device. It is very intuitive and simple to use. Great product I recommend you buy it.

This really is a great keychain design. For one, it is solidly built, yet not overbearingly large like a kubotan or even a stinger keychain. and Two, and this is huge, is that it doesn't look like a weapon. Other self defense keychains look like that's what they're for - beating someone either with your keys like a flail, or punching / stabbing them with. This keychain is covert. If I ever have to punch someone with it, I'll update the review with how it turned out.

I hope that I never have to use this. I am a 59 year young massage therapist, and the thought of hurting my hands in anyway due to a self defense incident makes me cringe. I don’t practice violence in anyway, but had a recent disturbance at work. In case of future episodes I bought the Yoogo. It fits nicely in my hand and very discreet, hopefully I won’t have to use it for it can easily break bone. I tried it on a wood door and cracked its panel. This is a serious tool and I do feel it can deliver a mind blowing injury. Be careful and thank you Yoogo

I wanted something i could carry around specifically through TSA that wouldn't get confiscated. This self defense keychain is the most inconspicuous one i have found. Feels very solid and good in your hand. I like it. Cost seems kinda high for it though.

I kinda bought this for the novelty, but I actually keep it on my keys because it works. I haven’t had to use it in a self defense situation, but it would definitely add damage to your punch. More importantly it helps protect your own fist from getting injured. I guess you can also use it as a lost key return service? That functionality didn’t influence my purchase, but it’s still cool to offer.

I typically carry a kubaton, though, it has a tendency of getting stuck in my pocket. You will not have this problem with the Yoogo. It is very unassuming and if you doubt what it can do, I highly recommend checking out the Yoogo demonstration on YouTube. I am ambidextrous and the Yoogo is very comfortable in either hand. If you purchase this item, make sure you have access to a long sturdy set of keys, like a po box key. When you watch the video, you will understand.

The tool and idea itself is awesome but the fingers leading to the round heads could have been 1/4”-3/8” longer to extend the round contact head a little further for better impact and the large key could be oblongated to almost a rectangle to firmly hold the tool better and firmer in the palm of the hand grip.

In dangerous situations as in Paris, best is to run. But sometimes trapped as I was in metro. Good to not be completely defenseless as this scares off the aggressive cowards without provoking a knife attack as in the 20 000 cases in England this year.
