What are your favorite Weapons?

You seem to have something to say about all of the forum posts yet not of what you say makes sense.

Please explain......

I have never heard of a Tessen. Can you please explain what that is and if you have a kata for it?

Scott

You probably never heard of the weapon b4 because it is used very rarely
There is a kata for it in ninjitsu but i dono if it is used in any other
style other than ninjitsu

Thanks for joining.

Those are a few more that I have never heard off.

What is a wind and fire wheel??

Thanks for the link.
Is there a kata for those weapons?

1. Flat palm/wrist/fingers/bent tips (bent tips is perhaps a natural trait.) I'll post a picture of my hand in this style when I can. There are several variations to it. This strike is designed to hit pressure points and organs directly, the strike only slightly cushioned by muscle. I'll be honest and say that I am in no particular school, I have developed my own style (Yet to have a name, i've been searching for other topics related to this style, but no school I know of primarily uses this method of striking). My style incorporates everything I read about, online and in books, and have witnessed. If you wish, I can make a writeup of my method and how to train and apply it.
2. Fist (I have taken the idea from jiu jitsu in bone strengthening.)- I am able to dent (thin) steel (about the width that you'll find in a locker room) and punch through boards with a 1 inch width from 1 inch away. I believe this is power form taught in Jeet Kun Do - using your entire body in one attack (Fa Jing, Hidden Power. Designed to be a "No Inch Punch", I call it a push punch). Knowledge, hard work, and determination equals power. Remember, a natural reflex to an unexpected victim is to bend down once their stomache has been hit. My favorite combo is a flat hand strike to the solar plexus, punch to the frontal bone or nasalbridge | | or an uppercut to the chin, and a yin downward blow (if possible, some victims may be tall. avoid straight punches, you don't want to be charged with manslaughter. If you want to be safe, just choke them.) to the throat (Try not to hit any pressure points if you are striking). All of that combo is achieved in under a second.
3. No difficult style behind this (not other than the monkey finger technique), but it is a finger razor I've been developing. It would be for excessive defence tactics only. Immagine you live on a bad street. Now immagine that someone on that bad street decides to grab you. This razor, going along the medial plane of the index finger will allow you to place your finger anywhere on the opponent's arm and slice through their clothes and peel their skin. Such weapons would not be allowed anywhere.
4. Palm strike - It hurts the user the least, perhaps leaving a bit of numbness. Strong wrists recommended. - but it is an effective strike that can disorient anyone with a shot to the chest, possibly crushing a rib or two and causing shortness of breath (being winded); a Grand Master that trains in this technique could stop one's heart.
5. Leg - my longest weapon. Low kicks are a big no-no, as are middle kicks, snap kicks, and anything like this. A skilled person will grab your leg (ankle) and lift/twist it, causing you to fall over. Train yourself to trip people with your legs amd/or use both legs in one ranged attack (such as allowing your opponent to grab one leg, then you spin with your other.)

My favorite sparing partners - Jiu Jitsu or that Brazilian dancing style practicioners. Even if they manage to somehow get me in a lock, I can manage to get out of most of them. Why? Because I realise that the only reason why they are able to do those locks is because they restrain weak muscles from resisting a force. Here's an excercise for you readers. Hold someone's arms against a wall. Your partner's elbows are to be lateral (furthest away) to his or her torso. The hands, facing anatomical position, are to be held against the wall or ground with you on their chest. Tell them to try to overpower you. They can not, chances are they don't work out the muscles needed to get out of that. Now immagine that, but your hands are completely lateral to your body and someone is placing their foot on one of your wrists, hand on the other, their other leg on your chest, and punching you in the face/throat with their free hand. Chances are your opponent is a student of jiu jitsu.

Using "All You Got" is a skill. Many people hold back. As Master Lambert said somewhere on this forum (I'll make a variation to it), the difference between the throwing of a rock and it hitting it's target and you using the rock as an extension (magnifier) of your power is that the throwing is a chance, only with the holding are you guarenteed a powerful hit. All attacks must be fast and relentless. That is my way. (I can go into my style more. I incorporate "fake weaknesses" as a mind game to my opponent as well. In this post, I thank the makers of this website for furthur expanding my knowledge of Martial Arts, more specifically pressure point karate and the dead arm method.)

Also, there is no easy way to being the best. And when you say that you're the best, someone possibly better than you will come along and challenge you. Try not to have an ego the size of your skill. Be humble about your abilities, and challenge the champions - after you beat them, again, be humble about your abilities. It is a way to have people admire and respect you.

Well, I think I wrote a little too much there. Hope you enjoyed this little bit of information.

EXACTLY... i think of that every day. weapons are just a slight extension so you should learn with your body. who has a bo staff lying around in there room with a theif in the room next to you.

death is just a temporary symptom if you have the courage to fight it.
