The sai was incorrectly believed to be an Okinawan tool to measure stalks, or some even say as a pin to hold cart wheels in place, but is better and more correctly known as a weapon. Its basic form is that of an unsharpened dagger, but it also has two long, unsharpened projections (tsuba) attached to the handle.The sai's distinctive shape makes it a versatile weapon. With skill, it can be used effectively against a long sword by trapping the sword's blade between the sai's blade and the tsuba and breaking it with a twist of the hand. Also, it can be held so that the middle arm fits between the ring and middle fingers, and used as a longer variant of brass knuckles (this stance is only accepted in American styles).
Sai come in two traditional styles, one is just rounded arms, still no point at the tip; or what are called octagon sai, which have an octagonal shape on the middle arm.Traditionally, sai were carried in threes, two at the side, as primary weapons, and a third tucked behind, in case one was disarmed. An alternative use of the third sai is as a throwing weapon to disarm or distract an opponent before engaging in close combat. The sai was the only okinawan tool designed to be a weapon only, the rest were formed from farm tools.

The Ono, or battle axe, was a very powerful weapon used to smash through castle gates, knock opponents off their horses or totally destroy anyone attempting to fight with a lesser weapon. The Ono was generally 4 feet long with a heavy, oversized steel blade.
The weight of this weapon demanded great skill from the user in battle.
The Kyoketsu-shogei was a knife attached to one end of a long cord made of women's or horse hair, or sometimes chain. On the other end of the cord was a ring. The knife could be used in close quarters or swung around by holding on to the ring.
The Kakute were rings that the kunoichi wore that were dipped in poison. The rings could be made out of metals, and tempered wood. The ninja would quietly strangle enemies with the ring stuck in their neck. It was far less messy then using a sword, and left very little evidence on how the victim died.
This weapon is a 2 foot long straight stick, with a 2-1/2 chain attached to the top with a ball with spikes. This weapon is considered to be the japanese morning star. The chain could be fitted in side the stick like the Kusari-Gama/Kama, and used as a mace.
A bo 3 feet in length can be concealed as a cane. Can be used like a bokken. May also conceal things inside, like a sword blade or a chain.
