chain weapons


little kicker

Recommended Posts

my friend was pretending to threaten me with his chain saying that he could knock me out by wrapping it around his knuckles, and guess what i said, I said "thats not all you can do my friend"... so I took his chain and just like Bruce Lee, (he is my Nunchaku Teacher or was to some people), I did the Nunchaku tricks all all from left to right and my friend got scared and stopped... :D

That's nice :). I can imagine he stopped lol :lol:

Is there any style that uses the chain as a weapon? Not a rope or a thin chain with sth in the end, just a thick, ordinary chain which can be found almost anywhere.

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

Won't a 3-section-staff handle similar?

In the 70', chains and belts were a very popular weapons for street gangs and general tough guys.

I remember my older brother and his friends actually practicing techniques and sparing one another using knotted ropes to simulate a chain or belt. They would practice defending against a knife or baseball bat. I don't know what they were practicing for, they weren't a gang themselves. I was way to young to participate... but it did look like fun.

Back then, everyone wore belts with big heavy, gaudy buckles, and everyone rode bikes and used a chain to secure it... so in a way it was ingenious to learn to use these items as weapons.

Chains (flexible weapons) can be very effective, if used properly. Just imagine getting hit upside the head with a padlock on the end of a chain.

If I were up against someone with a chain, and I couldn't get away, I'd just cover the side which they were holding the chain (some thug is almost certianly going to swing from ouside to inside, not backfist it or whatever) and rush him. Once clinched, or even really close to that, a chain isn't so useful. Then it's headbutt time, or stabby time with my knife, or throat grabbing testical mashing time, well, you get the point.

Why's it called a signature if all I can do is type it?
