Weapons We Use

Unlike other martial arts styles, Kung Fu has a long tradition of weapon fighting and use. The weapons changed from one dynasty to the next, and from a multitude of weapons, 18 were chosen for their various characteristics. Often, the adept scholar would choose one weapon with which to become proficient and "master", and then only use that 1 weapon thereafter. A true martial artist needs to reach a level of proficiency with all 18 weapons to understand the 18 kinds of martial techniques. These weapons include:
  • Staff
  • Broadsword
  • Gim (straight sword)
  • Spear
  • Double daggers
  • Double broadswords
  • 3-section staff
  • Hook swords
  • Chain whip, and others.
