As for chucks, yeah I think they're really just there to look cool. Some people can make them work, but it's because they've trained to make them work. I think that kind of learning curve is much greater with things like nunchucku than say a staff.

If you can find a competent teacher they are very easy to learn. There isn't too much to the nunchuku. Problem is that people want to look flashy while doing it, and effective nunchuku technique doesn't look as much flashy as it looks scary!

The problem with weapons in gereral I find is that people don't actually know what the intended striking surface is on most weapons.

Can anyone guess what part of the nunchuku you are actually striking with? OR the Bo for that matter?? Mind you, striking with the wrong part is still going to hurt like hell.
