Hello everyone. I draw inspiration from the interest and curiosity of a friend on a forum to review the martial arts weapons that are being studied in our tradition.
大刀 - by dao - Sciabolone
Very large and heavy. From the ground to get to the chest of the practitioner. Unlike the sword used in taijiquan, too long, keeps the most common form of short sword styles of the north. The blade is very wide. The training involves two basic postures and 2 changes. There are 8 principles of technique, then applied in a sequence pair of 64 techniques. In addition to the technical specification of the weapon, training develops great strength in the wrist ... it is easy to imagine. In action, the Master Sui Yunjiang during the filming of an instructional video on the market in Japan.
风火轮 - feng huo Mon - rings wind / fire
They consist of a blade closed loop, which terminates at each end with two points and straight wavy, reminiscent of two tongues of flame in the wind, hence the name. They are used to trap and piercing with the tips, or cut with a blade that is located on the inside, on top of the ring. There are many variations, with peaks and crescents both inside and outside the ring, according to the imagination and the Ugly gusto che talvolta è proprio dei cinesi...
Si pensa che questo tipo di armi sia arrivato in Cina dalla Mongolia, durante la dinastia mongola degli Yuan (1271-1368).

鸡爪阴阳锐 - ji zhua yin yang rui - lame artiglio di gallo yin/yang
E' questa l'arma più caratteristica della nostra tradizione, non è utilizzata in nessun altro stile. E' costituita da una lama, con un uncino at one end, a bit over the other, a claw on the side, and part to protect the hand that wields it. There is no trace of the weapon before Dong Haichuan, then born with our style.

Save the image and rotate it 90 degrees in order to display it vertically like ..... what ?.... here is revealed the mystery of the complicated name, which caused some confusion even in China in the past .
Master Li again in action. These weapons are the crutches as a grab of some typical styles of the south, as well as the Japanese kobudo (tonfa). They are so picturesque as deadly weapon: parry, hook and trap, pierced back, clawing tearing ..... any movement can produce serious damage, so that the last of forumle that illustrate the principles calls for strike only when our lives were in danger. ..
Unfortunately I could not find pictures or interesting details on the latest features of weapons of Liang style Baguazhang, a sort of grappling hooks, which are also to be used in pairs. And they are the lesser weapon.
good workout.
