Nunchaku Nunchakus (also known as "nunchucks") were used because they could be adapted for many situations. Aside from being easy to carry, the nunchakus were used to defend against most any weapon from a bo to a sword. By trapping the blade of a sword with the chain between the two sticks, a Ninja could entangle and disarm a sword-weilding attacker. The same concept applies to almost every other weapon. The nunchakus were not just used for defense, they could also be effectively employed against an enemy in an offensive way. The Ninja could strangle an opponent or even execute joint locks with the chain or cord between the two sticks. Nunchaku - Originally this was a wooden flail used to crush rice and consisted of two unequal lengths of hardwood connected by a cord made of horse hair. The modern Nunchaku have octagonal (hakkakukei) or round (maru-gata) wooden handles of equal length connected by a length of rope or chain. A vine (kanda) can also be used as a longer connector, in order to bind an opponent's head and hands together in an "Okinawan Handcuff." Matayoshi Kobudo instruction includes nunchaku with one handle half the length of the other, both handles half the normal size, three-sectioned and four-sectioned. The han-kei nunchaku, with the circumference of the handles halved, is designed for easier carrying and concealment, as both handles fit together smoothly The Nunchaku can be wielded with tremendous velocity in striking and are also valuable in parrying attacks from other weapons. Nunchucks History: Warlords ruled in the ancient orient and after they
banned the use of such weapons as the gun, sword, and spear, the public
turned to Karate and Kobu-Do for protection. The use of Nunchaku also
grew. The art of stick fighting with Nunchakus, has lasted through centuries
and is today practiced by people throughout the world. No longer used
as a weapon substitute due to a lack of weapons, Nunchakus have stood
the test of time due to their effectiveness, lightweightness and affordability!
Nunchucks: Nunchakus have a unique and interesting background. They
were believed to have personalities emanating from the actual sticks
themselves. Oriental tradition says that after you have practiced long
enough and hard enough, the Nunchakus you use will take on some of your
spirit and character. Your nunchucks, it is believed, are becoming a
part of you. But this is not an overnight process! It takes countless
hours of practice and perfection to reach this point. Type of Nunchucks:
The designs and styles of Nunchaku are just as long and colorful as
their history! Used as self-defense weapons, and also for training and
learning, Nunchakus were first bought to the attention of the western
world when they were popularized by the immortal Bruce Lee. After Lee
helped to propel this simple weapon into the spotlight, it went on to
become a weapon of choice by many people, especially martial artists.
Various sizes, materials and colors can be found. Most Nunchakus are
made of metal, plastic or wood and are attached by a chain or a rope.
Surprisingly, as small and lightweight as this weapon is, it is a powerful
one.
