Beware the old fart in the green vest.

So what is the utility/purpose of your oddly shaped slapper/smasher/potato peeler? (I'm coming up withy all sorts of utilitarian ideas)

I'm curious if its design features have purposes that I hadn't thought of. Interesting looking object. Is it aluminum/steel/plastic? Can't tell from the photo.

That little jewel is "The Predator"

now labeled "the defender"

when you're a short, fat, bald old fart, you just can't be too prepared.

Seems like overkill to me but I live in a "nice" area where my 239 Sig is all I need. LOL

I have the same vest, TSA hates those vest with a passion. Every blue shirted asshole in every airport I stop in wants a piece of me.

I have 3 kids under 3 years of age. Usually have 5 or 6 passifiers in mine, and 3 or 4 baby bottles. Plus the family of 6 passports, wallet, credit cards keys and what not. Armed for bear.

I can hide a whole 12 inch kukri in the thing away from travelling. So I love it.

Very nice but you are underarmed. Love revolvers, often carry a M60 Smith, like cute knives as well, but if I was going to wear a vest, I'd also pack some serious firepower and a big knife, in addition to what you have.

You're good 90% of the time, but I'm getting old.

I like these vests and coats. TSA doesn't hate them as much. Just put them through the x-ray and go. They even have hats.

What's the knife for? You planning to field dress the perp after you cap him?
