These two Brand New "replica" Crescent Moon Knives are 14" by 8 1/4". They are designed for Martial Arts Practice & Decorative purposes. In order to comply with California Laws on Dangerous Weapons, these "knives" are neutered "dull" edges & tips therefore they are not actually "knives". They are not designed to be sharpened and will not carry a sharp point or edge. They are not "disguised dangerous weapons or brass knuckles" rather they are your opportunity to own an excellent facsimile of a famed Martial Arts Weapon that defeneded the safety of Ancient Ba Gua Masters. The Double Crescent Moon Knives are a very unique weapon originating from the Baguazhang (or perhaps more correctly Baguaquan) school of Chinese martial arts. Dong Hai Chuan the founder himself practiced these weapons. There are numerous stories of him defeating large groups of armed men who had attacked him. One such story tells that once while travelling outside the city, Master Dong was attacked by many men with weapons. He defeated them all "moving like a hurricane". As he did travel through rough country, it is likely that he would have defended himself from bandits using his Crescent Knives. They are designed for use against multiple attackers, or any type of weapon. There are techniques for use against the spear, staff, saber & especially the sword. It has been said the Deerhorn Knives are especially good at defeating the sword with their hooking & trapping techniques. The buyer will pay shipping and handling of $12.00 for USPS within the United States. |
