Kamas

The kama (鎌 or かま) is a traditional Japanese farming implement similar to a sickle used for reaping crops and also employed as a weapon. It is often included in weapon training segments of martial arts.

Like so many of the successful Japanese peasant weapons, the Kama was developed on the Island of Okinawa to the South of the mainland. Its use VERY quickly spread throughout the Japanese islands after its inception as a weapon somewhere around 1300 AD.

 

The martial arts kama is a tradition weapon widely used in Okinawan Karate, Taekwondo, and Silat.
