Bless him .... I hope I'm still that energetic at his age. It is a Kwan-Dao, it ws originally designed for taking out horses either via the legs or through decapitation. It later become a a horseback weapon then became a melee weapon after a little re-design, it's one of my favourites as the original training drills were very short and to the point, no fancy jumping around, just killing strokes

If you look at the video, this "weapon" is a wushu version of the real thing. That is not to take away any skill of someone using it, but this is the truth. That is not heavy. And seven lbs. is not that heavy either for a weapon like this, considering there are much heavier versions of this used, twenty lbs. and up.

Yet the weapon in the video does not weigh that much. It is much lighter. There is a big difference between using a practice tool like this in the video and using a much heavier version of it. But that does not take away from the performance here.
