Analysis of the weapon:

1. Emitter nozzle of some sort on the front end (Its a cut off cone shape)

2. The thermos grip is on the front part of the weapon close to the nozzle.

3. Centre part is only partially armored

4. Hand grips are at the very end of the stick

I don't think its going to be a very efficient bat at all, i think its definitely going to shoot something (flamethrower? a narrow cone shape nozzles implies a liquid,gas or a laser ) since the thermos grip can be gripped and used to aim when the thermos is parallel to the floor. However, i don't really see how it can be a very efficient melee weapon of any sorts :P Only think i can think of would be a piercing/poking weapon i guess?
