Okay so we were in conversation at work and the subject of the correct stick to beat rioters with came up. We went through baseball bats, batons, samjboks etc. Then I remembered that I had seen some old South African video from before the cultural change that involved a long jointed stick. If I remember correctly, there were two pieces jointed in the middle about 8 feet long total. Does anyone know what it would be called? Now, I'm not planning on buying one but the guys want to know what it looked like and I can't seem to google up anything like "jointed beatin' stick" or "jointed riot control devices" and come up with any thing useful.
