ABSTRACT:
An embodiment of a baton apparatus may include a grip having an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner ring may have a handle. The outer ring may be mounted concentric to the inner ring and be movable/slidable with respect to the inner ring. A ratchet assembly that is positioned on the grip may also be provided for driving the outer ring in a predetermined direction. In addition, at least two arms may be provided that are mounted to, and extend radially outward from, the outer ring. In operation, the ratchet may function to permit the outer ring to remain substantially stationary as the inner ring is rotated in a first direction, and then function to permit the inner ring to drive the outer ring as the inner ring is rotated in a second opposite direction.
