Smart Self-Defense Rings for Women
Defender Ring™ is a first of its kind self defense ring developed for women who want style, comfort, and protection. The ring's design is clean, minimal, and can be worn everyday by moms, young professionals, joggers, and any woman seeking personal protection. The dual-purposed jewelry can be transformed into a sharp, hand-mounted self defense blade weapon in under 1 second.

DEVELOPED AS JEWELRY
Our team’s primary focus was to create nice looking jewelry. There are many self-defense products that are effective weapons, but do not look nice and therefore won't be worn. Our ring designs are small, clean, and minimal. We didn’t want to create a cocktail or statement ring. We wanted to craft a simple everyday ring that can be regularly worn by women for its aesthetic appeal.

NEW INTERCHANGEABLE TOPS
Our first ring top design is the Rose, which will be available in early 2019. We'll release a brand new ring top design for sale every month. All current and future ring tops will be interchangeable with each other. We offer the full set which includes the ring band and top, and just the ring top alone. Women will have the option to alternate ring top designs to match their outfit or the occasion.

SHARP HIDDEN BLADE WEAPON
Inside the ring encased by the ring top is a sharp hidden blade weapon that can be used for self-defense. The blade weapon is a knifelike 5 mm double-sided curved blade with a pointed tip. The blade weapon is 2 mm in width at the base and has a 1 mm thick spine. The protective weapon is capable of stabbing or slicing an assailant, drawing blood, and inflicting pain.

PRACTICAL JOGGER RING
Joggers and runners can wear Defender Ring™ while vigorously training for a marathon or on a leisurely evening jog. The ring is a convenient workout accessory as it’s small, light, blends into your exercise outfit, and fits comfortably on your finger so you don't need pockets. We hope you never have to use the self-defense blade weapon, and you simply wear it as a piece of jewelry.
-
FAST & EASY TRANSFORMATION
Defender Ring™ can transform from an ordinary ring into a sharp weapon in under 1 second by unscrewing the ring top. Other self-defence products like stun guns and pepper spray will take much longer to arm, which is valuable time you don’t have in a sudden and unpredictable attack. The ring is located on your hand so it's easily accessible and you’ll be able to unscrew the top without even looking at it.
-
SECURE HAND-MOUNTED WEAPON
Most weapons can be knocked out of a victim's hand during a struggle. It's nearly impossible to knock the Defender Ring™ out of a victim's hand since it's mounted on the wearer's body. Simply make a fist to securely mount the weapon to your hand and prevent it from being knocked off. The sharp metal self-defense blade is now an extension of your arm and can be used for protection.
FAQ
What are the blade measurements? The blade looks small so how will it deter an attacker?
The blade is 5 mm in length by 2 mm in width at the base, with a spine of 1 mm. It's a double-sided curved blade with thin, sharp edges and a pointed tip.
For comparison, the outer most layer of skin on humans known as the Epidermis is on average 1 mm thick and 20% of the length of the blade. The layer beneath it known as the Dermis contains both the blood vessels and nerves, and is on average 2 mm thick, which is 40% of the length of the blade. In a self-defense situation, the victim could strike the attacker wearing the Defender Ring™, draw blood, hit nerves, and still only have used 50% of the blade. Furthermore, if the user struck the attacker with the entire 5 mm length of blade, the blade can potentially hit muscles and bones of the body.
What is the Defender Ring™ made of?
Currently, the ring material is stainless steel. We are exploring the implementation of other jewelry materials like silver, brushed steel, and gold. We are also exploring adding other design elements such as diamonds, stones, pearls and gems to future ring tops.
How does it work? How do I unsheathe the self-defense blade?
The ring can be worn like an ordinary piece of jewelry on a woman's finger. Simply unscrew the ring top from the ring band in a counter-clockwise direction to unsheathe the self-defense blade.
Is Defender Ring™ a real ring?
We developed our product to be an everyday, aesthetic jewelry ring that women can wear regularly. Our designs are hand-crafted and our product comes in the most common ring sizes for women.
Is the Defender Ring™ legal to own and wear?
Please consult with an attorney regarding the legality of purchasing this product. Self-defense weapon laws vary from state to state and Defender Ring™ does not make any claims to the legality of this product. However, this product is intended to be used primarily as an ornamental ring piece of jewelry.

Can both women and men wear the Defender Ring™?
Yes, of course both men and women can purchase, wear, and use the Defender Ring™. The Defender Ring™ has been developed as a self-defense product for women, but our wide range of ring sizing options allows for both women and men to purchase and wear the ring comfortably.
Does the Defender Ring™ require any maintenance?
The Defender Ring™ requires minimal maintenance. As both a piece of jewelry and a blade, the Defender Ring™ must be intermittently cleaned and cared for to maintain its appearance.
Why is the Defender Ring™ better than a pocket knife?
All self-defense products have different advantages and disadvantages. We believe that carrying a bulky pocket knife in your bag is inconvenient and impractical, as well as threatening and possibly illegal. That's why we developed the Defender Ring™, so women can wear it regularly just as a piece of jewelry that doesn't need to be carried in your bag. Click here to read a longer post comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the Defender Ring™ vs. pocket knives.
Why is the Defender Ring™ better than pepper spray or stun guns?
The Defender Ring™ is very different from both a stun gun and pepper spray. While all three self-defense weapons are effective and can deter or disable an attacker, only the Defender Ring™ is immediately accessible and can be worn on your finger every day. Stun guns and pepper spray are bulky and must be carried in your bag, and retrieved from your bag in the presence of danger. We've written a detailed article comparing the Defender Ring™ vs. pepper spray self-defense weapons and stun guns here.
Why is the Defender Ring™ better than taking a self-defense or martial arts class?
Self-defense classes are a very special art that requires years of practice, patience, dedication, and skill. It's hard to compare the Defender Ring™ to taking self-defense classes as they are very different. In some respects, you can look at the Defender Ring™ as an effective quick fix to this problem, and self-defense classes as a long term solution. The best option would be to combine the two together, as self-defense classes utilize many finger, hand, fist, and arm motions, that when combined with the Defender Ring™ can be extremely effective. Please click here to read our detailed article about the Defender Ring™ and Self-Defense Classes.
