Nunti Basics

[shaolinkungfu666]

where would one go about getting nuntibo or manji sai? for that matter, where could i acquire a nice timbe-rochin pair?

@shaolinkungfu666 Shureido, out of Okinawa, or ShureidoUSA, their importers.

[hempev]

I'm happy for you. Were have you used one?

[OkamiNinja7]

Hempev, do you study Okinawan Kobudo too?

[hempev]

Yes, but I am not up to this level - nunti is an advanced weapon in our dojo.

[OkamiNinja7]

Sweet. I'm a lower rank too, I only know the first two bo katas, the first sai kata, and the first tonfa.

[hempev]

I only know one bo kata, 2 nunchaku kata, a weak grasp of Ni Cho Zai, and even less memory of Ni Cho Gama. I am the bunkai partner for my sempai, so I am "seeing" Cho Un No Kun, but not performing, and since I haven't learned it yet, I keep messing up on the attacks I am suppose to perform ("gedan here, kubi there, when do I do the jodan...?")

[OkamiNinja7]

I'm in Goju ryu karate do so we don't do that many weapons, we do sai, nunchaku, bo, nunti, kama, tonfa, and tekko. We have to train in a seminar with a hanshi to train in other weapons like the manji sai.

[jimbob17755]

you do 7 weapons,and you're saying you don't do many? god blessyou!

[OkamiNinja7]

I'm only allowed to train in bo, sai, nunchaku, and tonfa, and there's a lot more Kobudo weapons we could be doing, so yes, we don't really do that many.

[Thumper17]

That's like a Trident.

[hempev]

Similar: 2 forward points, one back, but both are used for fishing.
