Matayoshi Kobudo weapons

[Dani_001]

Hey peeps. So in two week's time I will be starting Kobudo with Okinawa Kobudo Doushi Rensei Kai.

First weapon to learn is the Bo. What other weapons does this system have? I know wiki has answers but I wanna know from those who actually study the system.

Thanks in advance.

Generally it contains:

Bo

Nunchaku

Sai

Kama

Tonfa

Eku

Not necessarily in that order, a lot of Okinawan karate that practices kobudo as well contains these weapons. However, more specialized schools that I have run into have commonly contained:

Sansetsukon (three-section staff)

Nunti-bo (Spear)

Tinbei (Shield)

Surujin (Weighted rope)

Kuwa (Hoe)

Tekko (A variation on what we would recognize as a brass knuckle)

Again, not necessarily in that order. Usually never a katana or any type of sword.
