Bedside Table Beat-down

Ain't it funny what a country full of people who can't own guns comes up with for home defense? I've always liked the British; and now I've got a more substantial another reason besides Mary Poppins and Quention and Answer Time with the Prime Minister.

The Safe Bedside Table comes James McAdam and is essentially a club and shield stored as a night table.

The picture really explains it all, but just for the sake of being thorough moderately informative, here's the description from the product page:

It is reported that 50% of people in London are worried about security and sleep with some form of self-defence to hand, for use against intruders.

The 'Safe Bedside Table' has a removable leg that acts as a club and a top that doubles as a shield for self-defence. This is for people who are willing to take on an intruder, providing an extra sense of security whilst in bed.

Also, it's made of wood and metal. Specifically, cherrywood, and, non-specifically, metal.

Oddly, despite the mind-crippling magnitude of information offered on the product page, they don't seem to think peace of mind has any particular price. Imagine that?
