Cold Steel Baseball Bat Brooklyn Crusher (92BSS), Black 29 inch

The Cold Steel Brooklyn Crusher is exactly what it claims to be: a rugged, no-nonsense bat. The solid polymer construction feels incredibly tough and well-balanced in hand. We purchased for home security and I feel more than safe knowing I have this heavy swinging bat with me. I was hesitant seeing it was polymer based and not metal nor wood, but I reassured this bat is STURDY! Would I buy again? Yes, sturdy bat at a good price

My wife and I wanted to feel more safe having a home-intruder defense option and as something to fend of aggressive animals while outside our house. While indifferent towards guns, we figured a bat would be a safer alternative with kids in the house. For traditional sport use, the 29" (33oz) Crusher is on the light-end for kids and folks with less of a build, while the 34" (39oz) Smasher covers the high end for large adults. But for a home scenario I choose the 29" regardless. By my estimation and test swings, having something longer would make it more unweidly in house corridors that would only be 3 to 4 feet wide in the first place. The weight of the smaller Crusher is relatively heavy for its size, which can be both good and bad. Remember you have to be able to swing this thing on command and with accuracy if awoken from dead sleep at 3am - no warmups or stretching allowed. It has an imitation wood grain to it and almost pitch black in color with the logo in white. The feel is unusual but not bad - just not like any bat I've held before. No grip surface - just molded material all around. As for durability, if you want to see it in action check out what appears to be a video from the manufacturer on YouTube: [...] I haven't had the desire to test it in the same way, but if the video is to be believed, they run over the thing with a truck against a curb and are still able to bend it back to normal. It does seem pretty durable just by feel and a few practice swings of my own. I can find nothing wrong with it for my use case at least. I'm sure baseball-playing reviewers can comment more on its abilities in that regard. While I hope to never have to update this review with how well it held up in a home-invasion defense story, it's at the very least, cheap and strong peace-of-mind for only $30.

Good hefty nice quality bat

It is WAY heavier than it looks. I bought it for my daughter as a home defense... I mean a softball bat. The grip is slick and grip tape is an essential $15 add-on. In hindsight, a shorter bat may have been more ideal, but it has a good reach and once it gets moving, it's going to break something... I mean hit one out of the park. The price is awesome even compared to aluminum and wood little league bats which are twice the cost. I tested it by taking a full swing at a freshly cut tree trunk. It left a huge dent without a mark on the bat and, amazingly, I didn't feel the vibration in my hands. A must for the dorm, apartment, or trunk. Remember to keep a glove and ball with it. Your lawyer will thank you.

This is a nice product overall. It's well made, it looks good, and there's no doubt it's super durable. For me though, it was just too heavy. I wanted it for home defense and I feel like it's just a bit too unwieldy for that purpose. This thing will absolutely obliterate any object that it connects with, that's for sure. But self defense weapons like this need to strike a balance or power, speed, and maneuverability and this one is just too far on the power side for my liking. I also tried the 24" version and found it to be too heavy for a one handed weapon and too small to be wielded with two hands. But that's just me. If you're okay with the weight, this will likely be a good choice for you.

Great weight, size and fit.

This product seems to be well made and swings good I think with some non slip tape on the grip portion of the bat it swings and handles much better and works really great with unruly people (just kidding) would recommend this product

This thing has some serious weight behind it. It definitely feels like it’ll do a ton of damage if swung at full force in terms of self defense. Now the main question is whether or not it’ll break. Just as a reminder - nothing is indestructible. Given enough force, it won’t surprise me if you could get it to break if you really wanted to but in terms of average person using it once or twice for self defense, you should be just fine. One solid swing to the head and it’ll definitely give someone a quick trip to the ER. I wouldn’t recommend this is a primary or even secondary self defense weapon but if you don’t like guns or are afraid of knives or mace (first I’d recommend you to rethink that), this really is your only other option and it’s a solid pick at that. Can’t go wrong, the price is solid for what you get. My only complaint is that the “grip” isn’t super grasp and maybe even just a tad slippery but the bat really shouldn’t go flying out of your hands. I’d say go for it.

This is nice baseball crusher from cold Steel. Strony sturdy and as mentioned in description.

I thought would be lighter than metal bats but it's heavier than I thought. I guess I have to use it for training my kids swing instead of actual game. Too heavy even for adults. But feels solid.

やっと見つけた！！ 以前は、普通の木製やら金属製のバットだとひん曲がったり、折れたりですぐダメになる…。 でもコレは折れない！本当さ！！！ いくら乱暴に叩きつけても表面がボロボロになるだけで折れる気配がない。 最近じゃ、叩いてる木の方が倒れそうww マジで最高の筋トレグッズだ！

Leí algunas reseñas diciendo que es muy pesado; su peso es apenas de 1 kg. La longitud es de 73 cm y esa puede ser la razón del porqué aparenta ser pesado, ya que debido a la forma, la mayoría del peso se encuentra en la parte superior y si no has usado un bate anteriormente, se te puede ir hasta de las manos. Recomiendo que le coloquen una cinta especial antiderrapante o un cordón en el mango ya que al ser de plástico y aunque esté texturizado, se puede resbalar fácilmente. Lo único que no me gustó fue que los logos no vienen serigrafiados sino son simples calcomanías de papel laminado que probablemente se terminen despegando, raspando o borrando. Fuera de eso, la calidad es increíble.
