Well, we can't play baseball with our pistols,
but our pistols are much shorter than 54"!!

Seriously, if one carried one of these while
walking, is there any Texas statute which
prohibits the carrying of whips, which is what
I presume this would be classifed as?

I'm all for carrying a big stick and all, but I thought it was just a metaphor. You might stick out a little bit walking through the mall with a cane whip. :leaving

Would the Sjambok be classified as a club?

I actually have one of those, I used to order a lot of stuff from Cold Steel (mostly machetes, I was a surveyor at the time). Suffice it to say it's a mean little thing :shock:

Seems like it would be just the right thing for an attacking dog. (despite the reviewer that said it didn't work on a wolf pack...)

Watching the "experts" use it there, all I could think was "if he misses on the first swing, he's leaving a kidney wide open to a counterattack."

It fits the definition of club. Some say illegal to carry even with a CHL.
"Club" means an instrument that is specially designed, made, or adapted for the purpose of inflicting serious bodily injury or death by striking a person with the instrument, and includes but is not limited to the following:
(A) blackjack;
(B) nightstick;
(C) mace;
(D) tomahawk.

Carry a whip if you want to, but keep a handgun ready too, just in case an Arab swordsman attacks you ...
