No, they are cast steel for maximum theft deterrence. Rhad feexe or no you can never be too careful. I also have a small blue police light that I can stick to the top of my helmet to make scoundrels think I'm the plod, which I think is quite effective but is probably not legal. like the bear mace and the telescopic baton I carry in my wicker basket I suppose, but better safe than sorry.
You just need to be careful that you don't mace anyone who really is lost and asking for directions-once he regained consciousness i had a hell of a time persuading a vicar not to call the police on me and that I wasn't trying to rob him. C'est la vie really.
