When Val Rogers comes to the station to talk with Sheriff Calder, he stands in front of the Sheriff's desk and idly picks up an item from the desk and handles it while talking. The item is a leather "sap" or "blackjack" which is a leather pouch, 8-12 inches long, filled with lead and sometimes a flexible steel rod. It's a bludgeoning weapon like a baton, but it's small enough to be concealed in a pocket. Although they are now prohibited by most police departments, some police uniforms still have special pockets for carrying them.
