if you are in the united states yes but keep it away , if you are in Canada you may not have one at all , allthough somtimes you can still buy them they are illegal to carry.

In Canada, there is no specific law that prohibits batons; except for spring loaded batons, which are defined as a prohibited weapon under a regulation entitled Regulations Prescribing Certain Firearms and other Weapons, Components and Parts of Weapons, Accessories, Cartridge Magazines, Ammunition and Projectiles as Prohibited or Restricted (also capable of being referred to by its registration number: SOR 98-462). However, it is a crime under section 90 of the Criminal Code of Canada to carry any weapon, including a baton, in a concealed fashion. So as long as your baton is not spring loaded and you carry the baton in plain sight you're good to go!

In most states, possession of a police baton by anyone other than a police officer or a security officer with the proper license is a felony in itself. So. no.
