There's a line in a song that goes, "Every tool is a weapon if you hold it right"—and that goes double when your smartphone case has an extra edge. Like, say, a stun gun.

I wasn't kidding.

This…makes quite the impression. It isn't unique, either—iPhone cases have been weaponized in multiple ways, gaining everything from DIY studs to a pistol shape to pepper-spray add-ons. There's even an armored iPhone case that will stop .50 caliber bullets (which is probably realistic only if you're the Professional Russian).

Just for funsies, I spent some time with three standouts: the brass-knuckle-shaped Knucklecase, the SmartGuard pepper-spray case, and the Yellow Jacket stun-gun case.

I'm sure you have questions already. Don't worry—the legal aspects of each product are outlined below, as well as what they were like to use for a week, and whether they're worth their respective prices.
