I love how you cut straight to the point and just called it "stick "
tape a knife to it
stick is stick
We live in the country and we have an old, huge bedframe leg I carry out to close up the animals at night. We call it "The Dissuader"
Stick is stick
Stick is stick chain
Proud to have never lost my 5 year old brain's fascination with finding sticks awesome
Every melee weapon has a stick equivalent so it puts sword training to use
Sticks are the best
Sticks are awesome
@@erikbalasubramanyam4851 Club? Find a bulky at one end stick. Sword? Find a stick that fits your sword style. Axe? Pretty sure I've split some wood that turned out like an axe shaped stick. Polearm? You're Literally wielding a stick with sharp end, Find longer stick. Lmfao
@Non Cajun Mud-man Definitely! Lol. I remember I had a stick I saved for like 3 months before I whittled it.

@@aeea3306Thanks buddy! That’s hilarious 😂, & not the thing I expected to see as the last comment! I love the good sense of humor man! 👍 Respect brother! And Shad is the kind of guy that makes being a nerd a compliment! 😂 If I could go to Australia I would want to see if he would let me visit to cut anything & everything with as many swords, and anything else, I could! 😂 I’d probably get kicked out & band in under 5 minutes! 😂 My only hope is because Shad’s such a nice guy. Anyway man, I just wanted to say, “Great comments bro!” Best wishes to you and your family. ✌️🇺🇸
As a 20 year old who just took up Kali, finding ways to properly wield a stick has my inner 5 year old grinning from ear to ear
I'm Filipino. It's amazing to me how there are so many similarities between Escrima and Cane fighting. Heck a lot of similar moves in quarterstaff too. Wielding a melee weapon while not having to worry about edge alignment really leads to a lot of commonalities and universal principles.
Wait til you’re 42, have 20 years experience in martial arts and start practicing cane techniques. It’s both hilarious that you wind up with a strong preference for a childhood ‘sword’ AND completely gross the number of ways in which you discover how you can seriously hurt someone with one 😂

Massive range extender for punches by holding it with the long end forward? Check
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT!!!!
In the end we are just humans with sticks.
women don't tho. they gotta get one elsewhere.
@@perhapsclem872 lmao wellll your not wroong
We began with humble sticks. Then we made bigger sticks and long sticks and stick with strings that shoots pointy sticks and sharp sticks and sticks that goes boom and then we made them go very fast and they go brrrt. Also we made sticks with power to destroy life as we know it.
@@josefptacek113 nuclear sticks, for nuclear-electrical power and for ending the human race.
Yeah, well, my stick breathes fire.
The best self-defence tool is situational awareness. The second best is a pair of good shoes and a half decent time on the 100meter sprint.
underrated comment. Sticks are cool but the dude with a hundred pounds on you and a knife is not going to give a fuck.
While you absolutely right about situational awareness, running is not always an option, you may have to defend someone you care for
@@thebanditokinghe will. There is a reason why spear and other polearms was a main weapon on a battlefield. Because of how much range they give compared to sword. Same thing here, you may be 150 pounds larger, but going against someone who is proficient with things like cane will be damn hard, having only knife.
Best and most realistic answer.
Not the place to say this, sorry. This video is specifically for what to use if running is not an option.
“Cane fighting”
Bingo night’s about to get real

That’s some big stick energy
use stick --> stick really good!

If you think I said sticks are better weapons than guns, then you missed the WHOLE point of the video

Make a pointy end, pick a larger stick, and you got the ultimate defence weapon: the spear.

BIG STICK ENERGYYYYYY

The Great girth stick
Every weapon is either a descendant of the stick or the rock. Period.
but what about the gu- oh thats kind of a descendant of the rock
@@baanaanaanathe yeet rock
@@baanaanaana Here is the progression
We had rocks. We made them pointy so that we could stab things.
We put the pointy on a stick to make it longer so that we could stab things without getting stabbed back some of the time.
We then realised we could throw the pointy stick to stab things much further away.
We then realised we could use bendy sticks to throw our pointy sticks even further. Thus emerged the bow.
This worked for a long time, until we realised that we could set fire to some stuff which would throw our pointy sticks so fast, we didn't even need the stick bit anymore. Our weapon of choice is now just the pointy, aka bullet.

I started self training in my interpretation of French Canne fighting in about 1990. In around 2000 I began to incorporate longsword techniques as I interpreted them. Now at 48 with bad knees & needing a stick to aid in walking I carry a custom hickory walking stick, rectangular in cross section. I have had it since 2001 or 2002. It was accidentally dropped 6 1/2 stories down an elevator shaft 2 1/2 years ago & only got 1 scratch & some scuffing.
I would certainly trust it with my life & feel confident enough 8n using it!
My previous stick I carried while walking in high school was much lighter. It literally saved my life when a guy came out of the shadows & tried to pull a large knife on me. It has a chunk out of it where I blocked the blade. He turned to run off when I hit him 8n the head after blocking his knife. Unfortunately despite me hitting the man in the back of head several times he got away so no arrest possible. But it's for that sticks inability to stop him that my current stick is much stouter. It is still light & nimble enough, just hits a lot harder. I accidentally knocked a friend unconscious with it when doing drills because my friend did not do what he was supposed to do in the drill. He was supposed to parry my attack g counter; instead he leaned in & tried to strike. I unfortunately connected with the side of his head. This was in the early 2000s & in the early days of what we now call HEMA before good safety equipment was around...so it shows why safety is important.
"Greetings, i'm Shad!"
No
Always love having a handy stick around, it is one of the most versatile tools and weapons!
As the saying goes, 'walk softly and carry a big stick'.
I mean, the big stick in question was a lot of men with guns, but I get your point.
sticks are like the benchmark weapons to which all other weapons have to hold up to be considered good. A gun is a boomstick. A spear is a pointy stick. A mace is a weighty stick. A sword is a cutting stick. A nunchuck is a disabled stick.
A man and his stick is an inseparable bond
"FEAR THE STICK!" - shadiversity 2020
Shad is unhinged nowadays and completely off the rails and is a joke in the HEMA community
Big stick energy for the win.
You just need 2 more peices of diamonds to make the greatest weapon of all time
In a Chinese weapons poem the staff(or stick,the word can mean either) is referred to as the origin of weapons. partly because it's thought to be the first weapon used by humans (I think it could've been the rock, but we will never truly know) and because it's the first weapon taught before you start handing students more expensive and specialized weapons.
**Shadiversity and Father Rafailo have entered the chat**
I couldn't help but think of the fight scene from Old Boy this whole time. One of the most iconic oner sequences in cinema and it is a bunch of people beating each other with sticks.
I suppose you mean the corridor fight filmed from the side. The Protagonist has a hammer in that scene.
I'd say canes are the most effective of sticks, you can sharpen the lower end to a piercing point and get a heavy knob for a mace-like effect while having style.
When life gets you down, the stick will always be there, and for every person til end of time
My old and reliable friend the stick. Timeless tool
Not even the strongest of weapons can break the stick. Quite a legendary weapon.
Technically if you do, they just have two sticks
Unless it’s a stick that’s dead and rained on, then it’s like paper and gets broken from trying to move it to fast
The Adamantium Staff only second to the Vibranium Staff.
Also dont forget, if yur in the woods.
A stick can also be shaved off, using the shavings as tinder to kindle a fire and the pointed edge is now a spear, and if you add a rope/string you can then add a metal object. Asians have the kursarigama and the europeans have the morning star or mace. (Americans use a different type of mace)
The Chinese referred to the staff as "the Grandfather of All Weapons" for a very good reason!
And it was the kingdom of spears, which are pointy sticks
Good ol' stick. I've got a pull-up bar screwed onto my bedroom doorframe, but the great thing about it is that the metal bar is easily lifted off on case you might need it on your way out ☺️
I love the simplicity of the stick and the many adaptations of it in make shift weapons and the moves that are many times adaptable to empty handed.
Take it one further, to an item you mentioned in this: Canes. The benefit of a stick, enhanced according to your tastes. Some canes are akin to small-head maces, some are hooked- you can even get ones that act as a stun-stick (Though that one would likely be IDd as a weapon easily.)
But they serve another benefit, too: Appearance. Most people have 0 reason to carry a stick around, but a cane? Many people need canes, so as long as you can justify it you can take it anywhere and nobody would bat an eye. At most people who know you, and then you can just say it's to give you something to lean on when you tire.
Yeah, but then I look like an actual pimp

Rocks: "hold my sediment."
Yo have to combo them. Throw the rock then charge with the stick
Rocks were the first _projectile_ weapon. Sticks were the first _melee_ weapon.
Glue a rock to a stick and you get a deadly combination.
@@WillRennarsticks and stones will both break bones any way you use them
While one can use a rock as a very effective melee weapon, it doesn't have all the advantages stick provides. Reach first and foremost. Also with stick there is less chance you will damage your fingers.
If you think about it, every single weapon we have is a descendant of the stick. A sword is just an edged wide stick, a spear is just a pointy stick, a gun just fires small chunky sticks, and a bow is a stick that launches more sticks
Another amazing self-defense tool are "Running Shoes" and I guarantee most people know how to use them
The most effective and dangerous weapon is the human mind. Absolutely everything can become a weapon if needed including the humble stick.
I hit a guy with my mind but it knocked us both out.

That’s really interesting. I didn’t know there were so many versions of stick fighting. Also when he showed the weapon for some reason I thought of nightwing from Batman.

And in the Arkham games he uses Escrima

Love to see the knowledge and passion you hold to all form of hand weapons and martial arts. Much respect brother!!!
Sticks, flashlights, and guns. Probably the holy trinity of self-defense. If you have only one, you should be fine. If you have two, you're in good shape. All three are golden. There's a reason police carry all three.
Stick and pointy stick are my favourite weapons.
Sharp stick and small flying stick also pretty good
Now that's some big stick energy!
I have many of those all around my house.
Easy to use in tighter areas.
Love kali!
Much respect.
Always thought the rock was our first weapons ever? Stick is still cool.
pretty sure Shadiversity would approve of this message.
I completely agree with this especially if you live in some place like California or New York where it's kind of hard to get a knife or gun or any other type of typical weapon
"First weapon we ever used"
Fist: "Am i a joke to you!?"
Used to study escrima. Dual wielding these sticks felt fantastic for crowd control. Leads me to my story.
Got set up in a multi-man melee during sparring. One of my “rechambering” motions would sling the stick over my shoulder and across my back. At one point when I did that, one of my opponents was cheekily creeping up behind me to whack me while two other fellows were distracting me from the front.
Their strike got BLOCKED because my stick had rechambered, guarding my back from the sneak attack right as they attempted to attack me. To them, it had looked like I had psychic powers.
But to be honest, I couldn’t tell which of us was more surprised that I’d blocked that. 😂 I had just been following my form.
Stick fighting is great. Definitely recommend.
I now have a reason to carry a cane everywhere I go
You'll need at least 2 hoes by your side so you can camo as pimp
A little bit of Shadiversity leaking here. XD
Nah, everyone likes sticks. Every martial arts RUclipsr is going to recommend them😁
@@SellswordArts Haha, true. I mean, it is best self defense weapon when you have nothing else, or is too regulated.
I had an acquaintance who trained using 2 sticks. He was absolutely terrifying! I sparred with him once. That was more than enough for me!
My preferred method of stick fighting is when the stick is a sabot and it's coming from an Abrams cannon. Alternatively if I must be reduced to basics; I will take a claymore; it's still technically a stick; Just a very fancy stick
I like how the first thought that cross my mind when he say stick, is shadiversity
Sir I was disappointed when you didn't say danda we have perfected this art
Imagine you pick up the stick, swing it once, and it snaps in half as you strike on the enemie’s head while he stands there unfazed
My go-to is a flash light, but usually a small one thats slightly bigger than my palm but not too thick. With a bit of background in boxing and bareknuckle, I like to use it as a blinding tool; and also can clutch it in my hand to deliver harder hammerfists.
People: this is called a stick.
Monks: "seriously offended"
The best is a torch, you blind your "enemy" and then you run away to safe, no joking
I've been practicing stick fighting in different ways every day for over five years now. I've made different sticks of different lengths and different woods for different styles. My first stick was literally a handle carved off a broom and sanded down.
"It's the first weapon that we used"
Rock: Am I a joke to you?
Also it probably wont be lethal unless you really try to kill them and getting away is better than killing because if you kill them you have to live with that for the rest of your life
Killing or even serious wounds could result in you seeing jail time, even if they were the aggressor. So, non lethal self defence is often the better option, unless you truly fear for your own life.
@ban banbi and that's why the USA has the highest murder rate out of all the developed countries lol
You know the rat was the first to answer the Buddha’s call. Something to that humbleness if you ask me.
"The stick was the first weapon that we used"
Rocks: "am i a joke to you?"
You can tell I not only watch IcyMike but also that I practice Kobudō. My answer was:
- custom self defense tactical flashlight that fits almost entirely in your palm
- 1000 lumens
- high throw
- jagged edge on the emissive side
- custom grip that serves as tekko (old brass knuckles). It would like a small version of lantern light (bigass carrying handle)
That way you could box with it like brass knuckles (without the uncomfortable knuckle/finger separation), hammerfist with the jagged end, and flash people in the eyes with a powerful light to temporarily blind them and force them to retreat a bit.
I had one custom made and I carry it everywhere. Small, effective, and easy to explain to people as the “handle” makes it versatile as a light anyway.
Stick is a great one though. Easy to get your hands on. Still think that Shane Fazen’s retractable tonfa is top 3 best self defense tools for modern day.
Big Stick Energy detected. Opinion approved.
On a more serious note, other massive advantages of sticks is that they are basically unregulated in that you can take them absolutely anywhere and no authority can take them from you, and if your stick is big enough to be a cane, you don’t need to conceal carry. You can walk around with it in your hands and thus you don’t need to draw it.
Guess what - everything hard works. "Bonk" against the head is super effective.
For example, the deadliest person in a house is often... grandma with a pan. Especially when angry.
We even still use upgraded versions of sticks in the form of batons
I would love to learn Kali. Great thing about it is whether you fight bare-handed, with a stick, or a machete as intended, you're using the same movements.
Stick is the tool that was "invented" to solve the age old question "How do I bonk harder without hurting my hand?"
Most practical self defence item : good running shoes
The humble stick is so good that it is instinctual to pick one up and we can "judge" them just by picking them up for a moment.
There is a way of combat that will never get old. The first one.
Throw a rock at the face of the enemy and charge with a hard stick.

Every cod player knows how effective these Kali sticks are
I once had a stick the size of an entire playground, I named him Chad ThunderStick… it was incredible. I even took the bark off by hand, making it nice and smooth. But sadly, my dad broke the stick, not knowing it’s importance to me. I don’t blame him though. He was just cleaning the yard, found it behind the trees I kept it behind, and broke it. Dude didn’t know any better. I was surprised that he was even able to brake it, the thing was think, sturdy, and huge.
This story has a happy ending though, when I came home from a walk, I saw the pile of sticks in front of the house, and saw Chad ThunderStick was in that pile… But, it was broken in the best way possible, it was snapped into three, Staff sized pieces. So really, it was kind of a good thing. Instead of one, massive stick, I now had three, normal sized sticks, perfect for walking with! But I still wish I had the original; thing was hilarious.
I named the three parts, Chad, Thunder, and Stick. Thunder’s the top of the stick, it’s the thinnest one, so it’s the fastest one to swing around. The middle part’s called Chad. It’s middle of the road one, for lack of a better term. Not to heavy, but not to light. Then there’s the bottom part, Stick. It’s the heaviest, and longest part, making it the most weapon like of the three. So it’s the funniest.
My dad apologized for breaking the stick when I told him about it. I wasn’t mad at all, I honestly found it funny, but I was lowkey bummed out a bit. He told me he was real confused when he just saw this stick behind his trees, that were bigger then the trees themselves lol.
So now, the three sticks, Thunder, Chad, and Stick. All live hidden safely in a 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙩 place. Always ready for the time I need something to lean on.
And that’s the legend, of Chad ThunderStick.
I found an old broken Louisville softball slugger bat decades ago and cut the broken top off and made myself a nice little cudgel with a lanyard. Still keep it by the bed to this day
"Bonk you on the head with a stick" is one of the simplest and earliest fighting styles.
Escrima uses the foam covered sticks because it would be unlikely to cause serious harm, but it's built to be a fighting style that can translate across weapons.
The power of the sticc corrupts my mind with the thoughts of bonk-
Take a stick, cut off a bit on both ends, and try to peel off the bark. Yes, like an orange. I've done it before, and it's super satisfying.
The stick is the ultimate weapon. Everything else is a stick with attachments.
Sword, sharp stick.
Spear, pointy stick.
Shield, flat stick.
Bow and arrow, stick that shoots other sticks.
Gun, see Bow and arrow.
