Tonfa {Nightstick}

World of Darkness - Armory
The Okinawan tonfa did not begin as a weapon. Once, the tonfa was nothing more than a handle used to turn a millstone. But peasants, unable to afford or keep weapons, were able to adopt these makeshift handles for defense. Over time, martial arts developed around the handles, and they became excellent handled batons for defense. Tonfa are the prototype for the modern police baton, the nightstick.
Most tonfa are made of wood or hard plastic. They’re not only functional as powerful clubs, but also provide strong and simple defense. Anyone using a tonfa in close combat gains a +1 modifier to her Defense. This Defense modifier is applied against Firearms attacks provided the shooter is within close range, as normal.
