Your favorite Kung fu weapon

[Kid Couteau]

Throwing weapons and butterfly knives I guess

I love hidden weapons and throwing weapons

As far as defense goes, before you say that if you throw a knife you throw your weapon away please consider that it is easy to carry many knives on you I ought to know I do it.

Butterfly knives I would like to learn how to work em.

they seem like you could carry them with no problem and are cool

BTW I am just speaking in a playful manner if this was considered for true defense I would carry my Ruger .40 with many clips and my Ruger 9mm as a backup

See ya

Hmmm... maybe, just maybe.......lol, a spade is a garden tool like a shovel man.

On the San Soo from Jimmy H. Woo...Thread

the books are no joke! you are the joke, wishing we guys could just come out and say what? Jimmy could kill anyone unless they had a **** machine gun . Shoalin is nothing in comparison. The people who wrote those books obviously weren't smart enough to code them. frankly I'd code my books, it's the smart thing to do.

Note :Shoalin is nothing in comparison

So what do you all think you this is shaolin NO comparison?
In my apinion Shoalin is far greater then san soo

The Monk Spade is cool but for the long weapons I like the spear !

don't you think there is some crossover of the whip chain to your belt (the one you wear with pants).

I suppose in a roundabout sort of way. I would make it more akin to any weighted object on the end of a strap or cord - like a purse, toaster, or cat.

lol, how many threads do you need for that silly argument? This is actually a pretty interesting topic (the weapon choices), maybe it should stay on course, you think?

Spear seems like a practical choice. All the benefits of the staff, plus the opportunity for impailment

Brent, I think the regular old belt is the best concealed weapon
to carry. Effective against knife, stick and empty hand weapon.

I've been taught 'sash' techniques that are chin na based
where you grip the sash about 3' apart and trap/lock with the
center section. I've also learned nunchaku chin na stuff as well
and translate both to the belt.

If the buckle is of sufficient weight you could also translate rope
dart or chain whip techniques. IMO


Now, cats are just amazing on the end of 6' of rope. You can
propel them towards the bad guy and once they connect they
do most of the work for you. I usually dips my cat's paws in
urine before just such a technique. I also have had one of my
cat's surgically modified with hollow claws and muscle activated
injectors in the legs so I can poisen my victims as well.

no, seriously ! Don't underestimate the power of a cat on a rope.

And these are just great for, err, whatever the circumstance....

Because ninjas are totally sweet!

[yenhoi]

Small, short pointy-sharp things (Knives.) Longer, sharp or not things (Sticks etc.) Various sized bendy-flexible things (nunchucks, belt, napkin, rope.)

Nunchaku are highly street use-able if your not an idiot. Flexible weapons are all over. Some FMA teach tabak-toyak (nunchaku) just like a butterfly knife that doesnt cut, and many use them in various sensitivity drills. At long range they work like sticks. They also come in all sorts of shapes and sizes - subdued-small-metal-crack-your-teeth, etc.

[Oso]

no, they aren't.

I see I have a mission.

[shaolin kungfu]

yes they are.

[ShaolinTiger00]

short - double daggers.
sword - double broadswords (jowga) although I have a "devil slayer" straightsword form that I love..
Long - spear or staff.

odd - horse bench.

[ZIM]

Gun, brass knuckles [have you tried these with kf?], knife, boots, a thick & well-kept brick...

Kung fu: Staff, spear

weapons: straight sword, rapier, broadsword, BSMHTs- gotta agree there...
