STYLISH JEWELRY
Our team’s primary focus was to create stylish jewelry that a person would actually wear. There are many self-defense rings that don't look nice and won't be worn. Our ring designs are modern, clean, and minimal. We didn’t want to create a cocktail or statement ring. We wanted to develop a simple ring that could be worn everyday for its aesthetic appeal.
-
INTERCHANGEABLE RING TOPS
Our goal is to have an ever-expanding variety of ring top designs that appeal to every demographic and person. Each month we'll release a new ring top design ranging from simple to more complex. All ring tops are interchangeable with each other and we'll sell ring tops individually. Swap one design for another to match your 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 leisurely jogging after work. The ring is small, light, and inconspicuous. It seamlessly blends into your exercise outfit, and fits comfortably on your finger so you don't need pockets. Wear the ring as a fashionable accessory, and you'll always have an extra self-defense tool if you ever need it.
-
FAST & EASY TRANSFORMATION
Defender Ring™ can transform from a stylish ring into a sharp self-defense blade weapon in just a few seconds by unscrewing the ring top. Other self-defense products like stun guns and pepper spray take much longer to retrieve and 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 always ready.
-
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 finger. Simply make a fist to securely mount the weapon to your hand and prevent it from being knocked off. You've now effectively added a sharp metal blade weapon to your fist that can stab and slice someone attacking you.

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 the Defender Ring™ legal to own and wear?
Knife laws vary from country to country, and from state to state in the United States. Defender Ring™ was created primarily as a piece of jewelry, and secondly as a self-defense weapon.

Defender Ring™ does not make any claims to the legality of this product. However, this product is intended to be used primarily as a piece of fashionable jewelry.

Yes, women, trans, non-binary, and men can purchase, wear, and use the Defender Ring™. The Defender Ring™ has been developed as a self-defense product for anyone who thinks it will help in a self-defense situation. Our wide range of ring sizing options allows for anyone 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 functional self-defense weapon, 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 pocket knives vs. Defender Ring™.
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.

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.
