Sansetsu Kon, properly called Chinese Shorin Temple Sansetsu Kon, is a historical weapon, which appears in the Chinese book “Sangokushi”. Its distinctive feature is three 70 cm sticks chained together making it much longer than a Bo. It can be used swinging around, or as a Bo, using one’s whole body space to fend off an attacker. This weapon was developed at the same time as the Nunchaku in China. There is also another type of Sansetsu Kon that is smaller, which was developed as a concealed weapon.
