cheesefrysamurai Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Whats your weapon of choice. What weapons are you studying? Nothing Worth Having Is Easily Obtained - ESPECIALLY RANK
Kanku65 Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 I have zero training in weapons, but the tonfa has always interested me. Seems to be quite a versatile weapon. I hope one day I'll take the time to learn, but for now I've got to get my shodan in shotokan, and get through college lol.

Harkon72 Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 My favourite Okinawan Weapons are a pair of Sai.I like blades, my favourite is my Anglo Arms tactical tanto.I train Fronteer Tomahawk and Bowi Knife because I find it interesting. Look to the far mountain and see all.
cheesefrysamurai Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 I just ordered a nice set of sai- very excited Nothing Worth Having Is Easily Obtained - ESPECIALLY RANK
tallgeese Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 PTK focuses on the ginunting. That's the weapon of choice. The knife portion of the system is built around the same geometry. For my EDC it's a spyderco police model with skateboard tape on the hilt for grip. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww
cheesefrysamurai Posted October 24, 2014 Author Posted October 24, 2014 Ohh I've been rotating my edc lately. Usually is a kershaw scallion but recently picked up a cold steel mini tuff lite- tough little knife Nothing Worth Having Is Easily Obtained - ESPECIALLY RANK
Zoodles Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 My favorite weapon is the spear. I also study European longsword, dagger and Korean Ssangsoodo
sensei8 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I've not meet a Okinawa Kobudo weapon that I didn't like!!I'm quite fond of any weapon in the Bo family...the Sai and Nunchaku family!! I do have to admit that I get a tickle from the Kama and Tonfa family as well!! Then there's the Tinbe-rochin [shield and Spear]. Oh, yeah, I've a relationship with Surujin [Weighted Chain].Man, I like them all!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
Wastelander Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Spears really interest me, but I haven't really delved into them too much, aside from learning a little nunti. The closest to "focusing on" a weapon I have gotten lately is refreshing my kama kata, and learning a little Italian longsword.

Zaine Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I really enjoy spears. My favorite has to be the long sword. Ever since I was a kid I loved European sword play. Martial arts training is 30% classroom training, 70% solo training.https://www.instagram.com/nordic_karate/
