The Top 5 Karate Weapons

You all new that I was a ninja, did you not? So I was scrolling through 4chan earlier, if you don't know what 4chan is (here), and I came across an interesting image on random (aka /b/) that was a picture of a ninja holding a weapon that had intestines hanging from it. Well, I decided that I could somehow turn that into an awesome post about awesome weapons that can do awesome things.(rythm--it's basic stuff)So anyways, here is your top 5 karate weapons. Enjoy.


#5) The Tonfa

There is a lot of uses for these. I am 100% sure you have seen one of these at some point, in real life or on TV. This is because most likely your local cop carries one, if not definitely carries one. The first thing I think about whenever I see one of these things is how bad it would hurt to be hit right in the jugular with one of these things. However, generally speaking, I think that in karate these are used less violently. They are good for making someone fall to the ground by hitting them in the back of the knee.


#4) The Kubotan

There is a few things that come to mind when you start thinking of the Kubotan. It probably begins and ends with all of the painful things that you can do to your self or the person attacking you. The first thing I think of is a guy swinging these and hitting himself where the sun don't shine. There is many more painful things that you can do with these though, think about impaling someone in the side of the head with these things. Karate is dangerous, so I would recommend these for self defense only--never use these as a weapon, they are deadly.

#3) The Sais

With its awkward shape and its deadly sharp ends, the Sais is #3 on the list. Mostly a weapon that can be used in attacking, the sais is great for demos and competition. (As seen in the teenage mutant ninja turtles)Ok, I had to throw that in there. seriously though, I couldn't imagine shoving one of these things through someones earhole, that would be devastating. (I am sure you would win the competition)


#2) Escrima Sticks
Seriously though, I have no idea what these do. I suppose you could attempt to poke someone with them, but I don't believe that would be effective with ends that dull. So I really have no clue as to why you would want this, other than the fact that it is frikken amazing looking--hang it in your living room.


#1) Swords (all of them)

All swords are good. The end. There is too many things you can do with them, including push someone over and rip out their spleen. I especially like the katana, just because it is awesome. Swords can be used in just about any martial art form. Recommended mostly for experienced martialists though.

I hope you enjoyed the post.
