Okinawan Kobudo also known as (Ryukyu Kobujutsu, Koryu, or just as Kobudo) is a Japanese term that can be translated as "old martial way of Okinawa". It generally refers to the classical weapon traditions of Okinawan martial arts, most notably the rokushakubo (six foot staff, known as the "bo"), sai (short unsharpened dagger), tonfa (handled club), kama (sickle), and nunchaku (nunchucks). Less common Okinawan weapons include the Nunti (bo with a manji sai), tambo (short staff) and the eiku (boat oar of traditional Okinawan design).
