Product detailed description
According to Kobudo tradition, like most of the weapons it uses, the tonfa was originally an agricultural tool, a handle to control a millstone, which farmers learned to fight after a decree banning the possession of weapons. It was used to defend against blows, being held by a long part of the body (yoka) to protect the forearm. Strikes were made with a short part of the body, with the opposite end or by rotating the weapon with a violent movement of the wrist.
Generally, it should protrude approximately 3 cm from the elbow when held.
The weapon is generally round, square or trapezoidal in cross-section.
Tonfa should be considered a weapon in all respects, because if used without adequate training and using ad hoc techniques, it can cause very serious injuries or broken bones.
Today, thanks to its versatility, the tonfa has become part of the equipment of some police forces.
