Comment: I just might cut off the two forward prongs,
too much to carry
the ring is well attached, drilled through not screwed on like some.

Comment: I don't know what it has to do with ninjas, but this little hunk of steel is no joke and no toy. If you know how to hit a little bit but don't enjoy breaking your hand, you can put someone's lights out or worse with this thing. You can attack with a hammerfist or reverse hammerfist as with any pocket stick, or with the spiky projections, you can throw normal punches. Since they focus the entire force of the blow onto two small points made of unyielding steel, even mediocre punchers can inflict deep, paralyzing bruises, torn cartilage, and even broken bones.
Let's not kid around. This may be touted as a nonlethal weapon, and it may (or may not) look better for you if it turns up in a search or in court than, say, a knife or a gun, but the purpose of this or any effective weapon is to harm an attacker until he cannot attack anymore. It can injure, maim, or kill just as surely as a bullet-- just not so easily. So before you bonk someone's coconut with this little item, make sure you consider the moral, spiritual, and legal consequences. As for legal, I can't see why these are any more legal than brass knuckles, which is to say not at all, but I'm not a lawyer, and neither are you.
What I can say is that this thing is a force multiplier. It's not a magic wand, of course, and if you have no force to multiply, well then, X times zero is still zero. Also, I find it slower to deploy than plain pocket sticks, because I have to take a moment to work it into my fist just right. Once it's there, however, look out. I have used it to beat the living daylights out of a big, rolled up carpet. I was afraid at first that my small, untrained wrists would fold up on impact, but they don't. Even non-punchers become punchers with this thing.
I'd take off the keyring, which to me is just in the way. And make sure you're getting the steel version of this, and not the flimsy aluminum version. And be sure to try it out on a sturdy sheet of plywood so you'll see what it can do, and you'll know better than to ever use it on someone who's not trying to maim or rape or kill you.
