May as well defend yourself against more than a little H-two-O.

+1 on this, my father-in-law got one for Christmas, so we decided to test it. We each held an end and my wife hung from the middle, and we carried her around the house. Took it outside and opened it, not a ding or a scratch, it opened perfectly. I suggest the wood handle.You don't get sturdier than this!

Why does he stand on the umbrella? What does that prove? What breaks or bends in umbrellas when there are strong winds is not the central bar, but these rods that hold the canopy.
For UK folk bear in mind the Prevention of Crime Act of 1953. This umbrella would be considered an offensive weapon and can land you two years in prison.You don't get sturdier than this!

You are right, sorry my post was a bit unclear. If you purchase the brolly with the intention of using it for self defence you are breaking the law.My brief review of that Act and interpretation thereof in response to your post leads me to suspect that this umbrella would not be deemed inappropriate unless it was carried with the intent to be used as an offensive weapon. If you know of caselaw or other in-depth legal analysis on this item I'd love to read it to learn more.
And of course, it's always a good idea for people to know the law regarding self defence wherever you live or visit.
