There are two books that can be download on web page http://chineseswords.freewebspace.com/favorite_links.html. In first book with some dao form is also stick form. Can anyone tell me something about this form? Which style is it?

Sorry, I didn't get it. Is Reimi Iajutsu name of the style or form? What is "Long-handled Pear Knife"? What is with movements 6, 7, 8, 9? Who is Seamus O'Heaney?
Now I am confused.
Here is page with, I believe, name of the form and style. Can anyone read it?

Looks like Fengmo gun. I didn't look at the pictures, but the characters certainly look like that. I know 3 fengmo forms. The Shaolin staff form, the Shaolin 2-person staff form, and the Pigua staff form. Since the Pigua form is the most famous, I'd have to wager that it's that one, but again, I did not see the pics.

Yup, that's definately the "Long Handled Pear Knife". Seamus O'Heaney currently teaches Remi Iajutsu's material in Seattle. I believe he still has a website up, if you Google it. If not, I'll put up a youtube video for you so you can evaluate it for yourself.

Have a nice day.:)
