FAN

 

Fans, in the Chinese culture have been more than just

a tool or a decorations.

Made from iron and more recently steel,

the fan is a versatile weapon that can be used to block or

 hand held weapons, such as swords.

Bamboo weapons are also used for Tai chi forms, with the purpose

to help to develop the projection of chi.

 

 

 

MONK SPADE

Buddhist Monks often carried Spades (shovels) with them when travelling. This served two purposes: If they came upon a corpse on the road, they could properly bury it with Buddhist Rites, and the large implement could serve as a weapon for self defense against bandits. Over time, they were stylized into the Monk's Spade Weapon.
