Now pioneering martial artist Sid Campbell presents an exhaustive illustrated guide to the traditional weapons of those mysterious shadow warriors. Exotic Weapons of the Ninja details the development and use of ninja sickles, staffs and canes, polearms, grapnels, maces, fistloads, spikes, swords, weighted chains, cleated weaponry, and firearms. This essential resource also closeley examines the four types of weapons-'invisible,' clawed, air-propelled, and pyrotechnic-that the ninja used so effectively to enhance their reputation as an elusive unpredictable, and even supernatural force.
A fascinating look into the world of these stealthy warriors though the tools they mastered so brilliantly, Exotic Weapons of the Ninja is a must-have for anyone interested in ninjutsu, martial arts weaponry, ancient Japanese history, or improvised weapons.
Karate pioneer Sid Campbell established his first school in Oakland, California, in 1967. He is a prolific author and accomplished film actor, stuntman, and fight choreographer.
