I was in the US Navy and spent two years as an MP in Yokosuka Japan . My sidearm was a Modnadnock PR 24 baton , a modern version of the tonfa. Many of the Japanese locals tought it was pretty cool that we carried a tonfa , as ut was considered a proper police weapon . We had shotguns in our patrol vehicles but rarely deployed them in the Japanese public . We deployed our shotguns on Japanese soil only once during my tour , and that was against an American merchant seaman who brandished a .38 Special revolver in a bar . The Japanse police refused to confront him as they don't regularly carry firearms . They reasoned that we were trained in firearms and had them at the ready . The merchant surrendered without any shots being fired .
Off the subject, but the PO Club had the best damn Porterhouse stake.
Cool story ;)
@@williamperkins9349 Hello , Shipmate !
@@victorwaddell6530 Ahoy. I remember the PO club, they had a fantastic Porterhouse.
Did they start to issue an ASP collapsible baton eventually?
My yellow belt test is today wish me luck boys
I PASSED (Now I am yellow belt..) HE LIKED MY COMMENT AGAIN AHHHHHHH
Omedetou!!!

The back of my head confirms that nunchaku is the deadliest weapon (for my own body)
bro trust me from experience nunchucks hurt alot when you whack ur self lol
My two front teeth confirm the same my brother! 😂
I once used a pair of acrylic ones that you would buy at a karate shop to fend off a dog. I was outside with my family and our collies started going nuts so I went over to see what was going on, I had them on me cause I was outside practicing with them and someone's dog had gotten loose and was sniffing round our females as they were starting to go into heat. It wasn't being aggressive at all so I reached out slowly to check his dog collar since I saw the tag so we could call and get the owners to come get their dog..then it lunged at my face, I hopped back and took a swing at the dog and that scared it off since the pair I had was decently hefty and made a nasty sound if you swung them fast enough and just instinct of "Don't wanna get hit" that most animals have.
Congratulations Jesse for your intelligent, precise, very well presented display of weaponry. You are very unassuming and modest in manner, and explain everything clearly. Your knowledge is remarkable, and you teach brilliantly. Thank you.
Thanks for your kind words 🙏
I wanna see the turtle shell and spear kata
Joel Quebec yes I watched that kanegawa no timbe and that’s interesting weapon and nice kata. This kata reminds me lot of the seishan and wanshu kata and chinto kata some moves have same similarities.
You mean naginata or the one at For Honor game?
@@sennengoroshi139 Nah, he wanna see karatekas fight like greek hoplites.
@@sennengoroshi139 No like turtle shell shields, and short spears. It's awesome.
The mistake about them being "farming tools" was intentional on the part of the Okinawans. Remember they were being ruled by people carrying swords that were not knowledgeable about the farming tools the peasants used. The tonfa you bought (Black Belt magazine?) look like the pair I bought probably from the same dealer.
So perhaps more a miss understanding of the truth? They didn't turn farming implements into weapons, but instead disguised weapons as farming implements? Sorry for replying to an old post, but I found this interesting.
The only one that I have been informed was kama my fav wepon
@@keirmurray7253 By what Jesse said, yeah, it's that way.
I have a training 3 section staff, I learned some basic techniques with it. It's a cool weapon, but I really like the Turtle Shell and Short Spear/ machete combo. When I saw that I instantly thought "Japanese Spartan."
What a brilliant, fact packed introduction to kobudo. You covered so much ground in a short time. A genuine expert.
I'd love to see a kata with the small three section nunchaku
Me too love that tiny mighty weapon 🔷🔷🔷 3 section
Me too

Jesse Enkamp yeah I would love to see you do your form with that Shield and Short spear
well done sir! very informative from beginning to end. peace!
Thank you Jessi san
I have to compliment you on your demonstration and speech how about these Okinawan weapons. I learned a lot and once again thank you
I learned some basic kobudo about 40 years ago . My teacher was Charlie Lenz ( aka hanshi charlie ) .
He would probably approve with most of what you said.
It's nice to see that kobudo is still ongoing.
Keep up the good work.
I like to see Demo of the little 3 piece nunchaku 🤩👍
Great video, I love kobudo and learning all about the history. I have been training Isshinryu karate for 33 years and love learning about the history of Okinawan martial arts. We use the bo, sai, and tuifa and I was very glad to hear you say the weapons were meant to be an extension of your body not just a tool to be held and used. Love your videos keep them coming.
Jesse, I would love to see you perform a kata of nunchaku
Me too. Especially that tiny 🔷 3 section weapon one @ 11:55 🔷
I'm sure Jesse is fabulous, but if you'd like to see a nice quick demo of nunchaku check out my dear friend Chris Yen here on youtube. She's Donnie's sister. A lot of talent - overlooked, bc she's beautiful too.
This is hands down the best general explanation of Kobudo I've seen. Very well done.
The best and most comprehensive and yet concise explanation on kobudo I've ever seen. Congrats!!!
I like the knowledge and bit of history you included for each weapon. Great job!
Yeah, more videos about Kobudo would be awesome..I love top practice kobudo and some new impression from you would be so great 😃
Thanks for sharing this with us 😍
That little nunchaku was cool that would be my second favorite weapon in karate
Great video Sensei Jesse!! One of the best videos I've seen about Kobudo with very good details about every weapons🥋👏💪👌👍
I appreciate that!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with these unique weapons. Really appreciate your content and have learned much from your videos.
Thanks I really enjoyed this video, very informative. I’d love to see the 3 sectional nunchuck kata
I subscribed!
I really enjoy your videos😊 This one is very informative.
It is so nice to see someone show the traditional side of Martial Arts in a functioal way and the passion you present with it Arigato Gozaimasu
Great video Jesse-san! Love all the background information you provide.
I would really like to see one video one each weapon showing a technique
Very very informative! Thank you very much!
Possibly one of your best historical al philosophical videos. There is so much in here! Thanks!
Terrific presentation! Always informative! Keep being Jesse!🇨🇦👍
Great history and knowledge of the weapons!
*Title of the Video* : *Deadly Weapons*
*Him* : *_Explains how the sai ISN’T deadly_*
Spot on! =D yet he is right. the point of a fight is not to kill your opponent, but to prevent him/her killing you.
To be fair, the Sai can be used in a deadly way, even the blunt ones. A perpendicular hit to the eye, the crotch area, the neck will cause major damage, that could severely injure and possibly kill the opponent.
@@jacobmercer3705 True enough, but the same could be said of most household tools and kitchen utensils. The proof of the puddinng is in the intent, I guess.
Class name by the way, Jacob (and it's derivative Jake) is one of the most enduring & popular biblical names in English-speaking territories - yet it still sounds classy to this day. Mercer comes from the cloth trade (as do Taylor, Weaver, Fuller to name three obvious ones off the top of my head), mercerised cotton used to be popular. Sorry for the randomness, these things just come to me sometimes. :-)
@@AnthonyIlstonJones Nah brother, never apologise for being knowledgeable. It's impressive. And yes, I'm glad you like my name. I'm the same way as you sometimes, I get weird intellectual brilliance when it comes to certain random things. Pleasure to meet/talk to you, even if it's via the Internet. Cheers brother. ✌✌✌
Thank you for the excellent descriptions and debunking of popular misconceptions
Very educational. Thank you for sharing.
Sensei Jesse, A great video as always! I would seriously love to see you do a Kata of the sais and the nunchaku. Also, do you know how I can protect myself against my own nunchaku? The bolts sometimes swing around and hit my poor back instead. :p, but great work! :D I loved your demonstrations with the spear and shield and the oar. The oar was definitely my favourite, absolutely legendary. Keep up the good work! :D
And YES WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE SOME KOBUDO KATAS OF THESE WEAPONS😍😍😍
There are some good karate channels on RUclips, but I definitely like yours the most. Thank you for all the work you put into it.
Thanks for sharing those essential informations about kobudo. Great video!
So much potential energy on that wall.
Can you please do a kata demonstration with the nunchucku ? I'm so glad I found this channel. Very interesting.
I learn something new today LOVE IT!!! Thank you!
love yr videos very informative and sometimes funny but absolutely great stuff.
My mum wouldn't allow "weapons in the house". I couldn't train at home and got so frustrated, that I quit Kobudo before I reached the brown belt.
I never lost my fascination for the art and your vid got me nostalgic in the best of ways.
I think it would be great to see some instructional videos using these various weapons
Thanks for another great video, Jesse Sensei! You really unpacked loads of information in such a small space of time, touching on the linguistics, origins and application, even, of kobudo weapons. You successfully smashed a lot of things I thought I knew. My association doesn't teach kobudo at the moment, but I'm studying privately with a view to eventually re-introduce kobudo to our dojos.
Thanks for your kind words 🙌 Good luck with your rediscovery 💪
Awesome, one of my favorite martial arts channels!!! 👊
Great video! I'd love to see the Tekko Kata
Hey Jesse, interesting video and some fun facts, I learnt a few things! Could you do a video demonstrating each of the weapons please? It would be interesting to see what you do!
Thank you! Very helpful and informative.
Many thanks for the excellent overview! I practise Martial Arts for over 25 Years and still pick up here some new infos .
Love this! The Kobudo Nerd in me freaked out when i got the notification for this video. Thank you Jesse-San!
Hi Jesse could you please demonstrate the three-section nunchaku. Thank you so much for your videos.
Jesse is the best! Videos are so awesome!
Great Video with awesome info! Love the attention to the history. I had the honor of training with Kiichi
Nakamoto a while back and learned so much regarding the history of Kobudo, still so much to learn!
Can we see the turtle shell and spear kata?! That would be so awesome!
I'd love to see the small three section nunchaku demonstrated, as-well-as the shield/short spear.
Awesome video. Thank you Jesse. .
Great educational offering. Thank you.
The holes prevent suction when attempting to remove the blade from the body. They also decrease the weight and increase the speed.
very informative ! could you pls demonstrate more techniques with the nunchaku and also this tiny 3 pieces nunchaku ?Most video on youtube are just flashy useless moves.thanks
thank you jesse I've learned a lot of kubodo
This is very helpful. I love training kobudo.
Hii Jesse.. I'd like to know more how do we use THE NUN CHAko weapon as you said that most of people don't use it as well as it should be ^^ It will be a pleasure if you make a video tutoriel just for giving some techniques the most useful and eficient and even those that copie the KAta 😍And thanxs Sensei I always enjoy each word you tell 😇
Spear and shield exists in so many cultures, but I honestly wasn't expecting it in Okinawa because mainland Japan ditched the shield pretty early on. Also the idea of using a turtle shell for that is awesome! It makes so much sense to use something from nature. You mentioned that there is bashing, but other than that, what are some of the techniques? Based on the size it seems like it might be used similarly to the European buckler, is that true?
Thank you for the mini kobudo seminar! 🤓
Absolutely fascinating!
Thank you, Jesse Sensei for again giving really interesting and scarce information! ☺ So the sai WAS a Ryukyu jutte... Did you know that most writers just wrote that they did not know where the weapon came from?
And now I know the Thai krabi krabong IS the ancestor of the tonfa!
The only weapon I do not see in Chinese martial arts is the eiku.
I just love this type of thing...
And yes- please! A Yuishinkai kata of any weapon would be awesome to share! I'll definitely watch it. 😁
Oh...btw- how does one actually hold a sai? 😶
Jesse san... could you please demonstrate a kata using the Nunchukus or Tonfas??? Great video by the way ..Ossu
Very informative, love your enthusiasm and the little personal touches. "^This is one I made when I was a kid!"
thank you very much for sharing your great kobudo weapon collection!!!
I will make my own version of the 3 small sticks tied together (dont remember the name), its an interesting idea to have something like that in pocket size. I will modify it tho, not sure how yet but it depends on the wood I use I think.
I've always said "bo staff" knowing what it meant, but that's because I also use a "jo staff," which is the short staff. Unless you're a martial arts nerd, nobody knows what you're talking about if you just say "bo" or "jo."
I use the term no staff to differentiate between the bow as in bow and arrow... I live in deep south.
thank you for sharing Jesse sensei always an inspiration.
Another great video as usual! Thank you for sharing your awesome weapons collection
Thank you! My “real” collection is private. These are training tools for my students :)
How common is the short 3 sectional nunchaku? I’ve seen the long ones before in old kung fu movies but never the short version. I can see how very portable it is. I don’t see much of the short version online either. I would like to see you do a demo of it, I know you would flail it differently then a regular ones
CODA Combatives: Jujitsu & Balintawak Eskrima Right? I'm gonna make one and see how it works. Worst part is I cant find much info on it so it's hard to measure :p. What is it like 5 inches per stick?
@@TaoistSwordsman late, but if we go by the name being literal, then the two sticks of a nunchaku would be 12 in. each or 10-11 + link length, then the 3 section one would be 8 in each, when you factor in the links they would probably be apx 6-7 in each based on link length
I didn't know about three of those..I'd heard of all the other ones..I didn't know about the three section nunchaku..never even seen one tbh, I didn't know about the Tekko being part of Kobudo, I've seen them and read about them but not known about them being Kobudo and I REALLY didn't know about the shield style. When one thinks Japanese martial arts (with or without weapons) one does not generally think about a shield of any type..never too old to learn something new.
Yes that THREE SECTION tiny weapon is amazing.
Love this. Thanks Jesse. Learned a lot 😎
thank you for this wonderful video sensei! more power!
I just wanted to clarify on the kung fu staff, Not all kung fu styles used one end of the staff to fight. That style is mostly portrayed in wing chun long pole. Most kung fu styles that use weapons, used both sides of the staff like shaolin. But overall i love the video jesse enkamp, keep up the work.
Yes, there are many Kung Fu staffs. We call the long pole dragon pole and a combat staff is shorter and you use both ends.
Samuel Raymond yes, but dragon pole could also be reffered as a long pole. I just call it long pole
@@manningngo2926I just added that so people would know that a dragon pole is also used the same way. (I think dragon pole is actually more a specific type of long pole)
Samuel Raymond yeah i know. Its just sometimes people dont know that a weapon can have other types of names. I just thought this was one of the situations. But thank you for calrifying more. And I appreciate it.
Can you demonstrate the weapons practical application..not all but some of them. I saw the kata but I wanna see how u use the weapon in a real life brawl.. peace
Thx a lot for this video Jesse-san, it was very interesting and I’ve learned a lot of things
Im really impressed! I love all martial arts, but more than practicing, i love to learn the story and the lore. Im going to be paying close attention to you my friend. Thank you for this video, really. 🙏
Really interesting stuff Jesse, I just missed the kusarigama (my favourite along with the kamas) but I guess it's not a traditional okinawan weapon either, am I right?
PusabumCanuck many Koryu styles use Kusarigama, it is not really connected to ninja.
I would love to learn how to use the san-setsu-nunchaku. I even built one by myself but ain't sure how to use it.
Great video Jesse, would love a video demonstrating how to use each weapon if possible! Thanks 🥋👊
Very interesting and enjoyable. Thank you Jesse
I do Aikido and weapons are just an extension of the body. We use The Jo,Bokken, and Tanto (I think that is how you spell it)
That's the right spelling senpai! No need to worry about spelling! Osu senpai!
Ps. I also do aikido
@@francisgregorio7487 cool what style?
Aikikai. You?
@@francisgregorio7487 A mix of mainly tenshin and other stuff. I study the philosophy on my own
@@owenc2314 oh OK! It's nice to hear from another aikidoka studying the philosophy as well as the technical aspect! Keep up the practice! 😊👍 Osu!
I feel like it is easy to forget that Okinawa was once separate front Japan so something won't transfer over
Your presentation is really great nd thanks for sharing a valuable information about Kobudo…..
Great video Sensei!! thanks for sharing, and definitely would be great see you performing Katas with (all?) weapons :D
Staff stafff 😂😂😂
It can give you a bo bo.
The OAR (Classic)- The Greatest DUELING SWORD FIGHTER Samurai ever, Musashi Miyamoto, dueled (against a sword wielding samurai) and WON using an OAR he crafted using a pocket knife on his way to the duel. Musashi's favorite skill set was based on using two swords simultaneously in combat, he was the greatest single sword, double sword, and OAR fighter in Japan's (if not the world) history....
Yea and another master defeated him with a toothpick he carved while going to eat lunch. Where's the proof?
My understanding was that he used two swords of different length, a katana and a wakizashi
He crafted a wooden sword (bokken) from an oar
Great stuff 😊 thanks J. 🍸👊
沖縄古武道の素晴らしさをわかりやすい説明でしてくれて感謝です！
Iv always had the understanding that Okinawa was banned from haveing weapons by the Japanese so thay wer forced to improvise farm tools as well as condition parts of thare body sutch as the fist feet or forarm. the sai wer a wagon weel hub and tonfa wer takein from a bucket/laundry hanger but my experience in japanese budo is in Modern Toyama Ryu Iaido and Ailkido so what do i know happy training man
oh jesse I got the black belt I was orange belt 😆
Excellent video. I learned from it. Thanks.
Jesse you do a great job on your videos. Thank you for teaching. You are helping me understand more.
Awesome, thank you!
Swastika is a Hindu symbol originally. Later adopted in Buddhism. Because Buddhism also started in India.
No one believes me when I say Okinawa kobudo weapons were meant to be weapons and no gardening tools! great video, one of my favorites :)
Thanks! 😄👊👍
However, I would like to point out that the KAMA is in fact used as a gardening / farming tool. It is possible that the misconseption about all KOBUDO weapons comes from this.
Excellent discussion Jesse
This is awesome. Love weapons. Testing for Tonfa at the moment. Already passed my Bo, Escrima and Katana tests. Great video!
