Intro: Kusarigama

hi this is my  kusarigama that i made so The kusarigama (��?, "chain-sickle") is a traditional Japanese weapon that consists of a kama (the Japanese equivalent of a sickle) on a metal chain (kusari) with a heavy iron weight (fundo) at the end. The kusarigama is said to have developed during the Muromachi period.and The art of handling the kusarigama is called kusarigamajutsu... Attacking with the weapon usually entailed swinging the weighted chain in a large circle over one's head, and then whipping it forward to entangle an opponent's spear, sword, or other weapon, or immobilizing his arms or legs. This allows the kusarigama user to easily rush forward and strike with the sickle.
A kusarigama wielder might also strike with the spinning weighted end of the chain directly while still outside the range of an opponent's hand weapon. so i made this with some stuff that is siting at my home so for my it was free to make.

very detailed essay on the kusarigama. thumbs up!

Finally, someone who actually knows what a good kungfu weapon is, i hope to see more tutorials from you in the future!

I'm not sure you know what you're talking about. Kung Fu is from China , whereas the Kusarigama was invented by the Shinobi in medieval Japan.

Yes i know, i realised that just after i posted the comment lol. I have recently become interested in both japanese and chinese weapons, so i still get confused between them sometimes.
