A lubric gel composition for personal defense includes a fatty acid at a concentration ranging from 5 wt % to 10 wt % of the composition, a thickening agent at a concentration ranging from 1.75 wt % to 8.75 wt % of the composition, a detergent at a concentration ranging from 1.03 wt % to 4.07 wt % of the composition, a surfactant at a concentration ranging from 2 wt % to 15 wt % of the composition, and water at a concentration ranging from 66 wt % to 90.21 wt % of the composition.

A cartridge for a non-lethal self-protection system is received by a launch platform and has a barrel, a compressed gas vessel movable from a retained position to a released position, a retainer selectively retaining the compressed gas vessel in the retained position, a projectile in front of the compressed gas vessel containing an irritant, a diffuser to spread out gas behind the projectile, a cannula with a sharp tip to pierce the compressed gas vessel in the released position, and an annular seal circumscribing the projectile and extending between the projectile and the housing to retain the projectile in the housing until the compressed gas is released from the compressed gas vessel.

A hand-operated self-defense device includes a first strap element for attachment to a palm, a second strap element for attachment to a wrist, a connecting element for connecting the first strap element to the second strap element, and a defense element connected to the connecting element or the first strap element. The defense element includes a support plate element including a plurality of tip element arranged on the support plate element so as to span a surface.

A self-defense system includes a first sleeve retainably securing a deterrent item. A second sleeve is laterally coupled to the first sleeve and houses a knife. The knife has a handle and a tip. A closed portion of the second sleeve houses the knife handle. An open portion of the second sleeve flexibly covers the knife tip. A hand strap is laterally adjacent to the second sleeve and coupled to at least one of: the first sleeve and the second sleeve. The hand strap is sized and shaped to secure the self-defense system about a hand of a user.

Disclosed herein is a system along with related devices and methods to detect the actuation of a personal defense mechanism, such as a pepper spray. Upon detection, embodiments of the system are configured to detect a location and generate a signal for delivery to parties other than the person that actuated the personal defense mechanism. The system along with its devices and methods may be used to automate the delivery of a notification to at least one pre-designated third party that the user of a personal defense device has actuated the device.

The disclosed self defense devices include devices configured to look like everyday clothing or accessories, but which allow a user to respond to potential danger or attack.
