In Australia a baton (excluding the twirling and or conducting type of baton) is generally listed as a prohibited weapon under state legislation.

As a prohibited weapon it requires certain criteria to be met before it is lawful for an individual to own/carry one.

The use of a baton it will only be legally acceptable if:

  • The possession of the baton is lawful
  • The baton is used in self defence
  • The use of the baton/force used is commensurate with the threat/force being defended against. Generally regarded as "reasonable force"
