Firstly I will tell the materials used for this thing.... I call it Sange & Yasha



Materials and Tools

>> 1x Drill

>> 1x Some kind of grinding machine to sharpen bolts

>> 1x Metal drill bit (I will refer this as primary bit)

>> 1x Drill bit smaller than the "primary bit"

>> Cutting tool. Minimum is a hacksaw. Yes, it does work. Thats what I used

>> Blade. Minimum is a small kitchen knife

>> 2x Screws + nuts

>> ~2 1/2 feet of galvanized metal pipe





Now the introduction (yea I know its weird to put this second)



Around the web, Ive seen homemade PVC tongfa. Sure they are light, allowing for quick strikes. But still, a tongfa main asset is the ability to receive blows easily. Id estimate that a PVC tongfa would take ~10 hits from a machete until it breaks. H*ll, I even broke mine with a single missed strike which hits a concrete wall. But PVC is easy, not too hard to replace it though. 10 is actually way too many strikes, but its an estimate, cant say Im wrong ^_^. So I chose metal pipes for the strength.



Id suggest using one metal tongfa in one hand and a PVC one on another. The PVC is for quick strikes for either counter attacks, or distraction techniques. The metal one is mainly for absorbing attacks. But, with the blade attached to the metal one, it would do serious damage if used.





DISCLAIMER



I strongly warn that this project is a dangerous one. It involves metalwork, working with sharp things, and producing an obviously dangerous object.



DO NOT INJURE YOURSELF OR OTHER PEOPLE OR ANIMALS - respect other lifeforms, and yourself

However, Im quite sure that those who are able to do this will be able to use their common sense properly. So I will not be responsible if anyone is stupid enough to injure other people without a permit for self defense



Check laws for your location to see if this thing will violate any of them. And even if its legal, dont go walk around with these
