Okinawan Kobudo: Mastering the Nunti: This weapon is normally used with two “Manji Sai.” In this video, Master Nishiuchi shows the rare nunti kata, “Matayoshi-No-Nunti,” basics, and advanced techniques against an opponent who is attacking with a variety of weapons. This unique weapon was featured in the movie “Karate Kid II.” (approx. 60 mins) 10. Okinawan Kobudo: Mastering the Timbei (Shield & Sword): This is one of the Okinawan weapons which was influenced by the Chinese, since Okinawa is located close to mainland China. This set of weapons includes a shield and a sword or hand-held spear called a “Rochin.” “Matayoshi-No-Timbei” kata is shown in this video. It is enlightening and interesting to know how the ancient people fought with these weapons and then learn how to handle them yourself. (approx. 60 mins) 11. Okinawan Kobudo: Mastering the Suruchin (Whip Rope): The Okinawan fishermen simply tied two rocks together with a “Shuro” (hemp) rope and used this as a powerful self-defense weapon.

This weapon is especially fun and challenging. (approx. 60 mins) Terms of SaleIf you have questions about an item, please ask BEFORE bidding or purchasing.
