Great video. I have always wanted to learn how to use this weapon, but the people I trained under didn't it. It's great to see you showing some of the more practical uses of it, and not just the forms. The different ways of wearing it was also a nice plus; people don't show this kind of knowledge.
Sifu, I'm convinced you are like an encyclopedia of weapon skills and history.

My late sifu really used this kind of weapon when he was a body guard by 1926.
