Tonfa was developed in a co-operation with specialists for training in a fight with the side-handle baton.
2. The tonfa also has a small heart-shape protector for the knuckles against injuries during defence and it simultaneously helps to distribute the power of the stroke to the whole area of the hand. This heart also stiffens the tonfa at the most critical place, therefore, making it very strong.
3. The button-shaped end of the lateral handle ensures a firm grip and rotation of the tonfa, a point at the end of the button makes it possible to use it as an effective hammer; for example, for smashing glass, etc.
4. The bottom part of the tonfa's body is flat so that the tonfa fits perfectly in hand (and does not slip out). At the same time, when the stroke is directed against the forearm, its power is distributed over a larger surface.
5. The material used is heavy-duty polypropylene.

Here the difference is clearly seen when the hand is protected using the Tonfa type TF - 24/59 compared to the classical type of Tonfa. The so-called "heart" deflects the blow and protects the hand joints. It also distributes the hitting power to a larger area of the hand edge.
