Fighting style for Sais?

GakiAkuma · 01-25-2006, 07:03 AM

I know traditionally they used 3 sais(one behind back on belt after youve thrown one).

But I couldent find anything on a fighting style.

This is the MMA and Brazilian Jujutsu forum. Not to be an ass, I was new at one point as well, but I don't think you'll find an answer here. Try posting this question in the Japanese forum.

well I dident now where to put it so I put it in the Mixed Martial arts forum, I figured its kinda a place where everyone kinda comes to where the rest dosent fit.

but I shap put it there also.

This is the most popular thread, but mainly grappling and MMA competiton are discussed. Sais are very traditional.

Yeah I chose this board first as I dident know where I should post it in seing as I dident know what fighting style or where it origionated from.

Figured I could get a lead as to where to look.

Thanks you for your time.

Hello,

From what I understand sais were originally from Indonesia and were used as a weapon against longer weapons possibly against spears...one can probably utilize this weapon during close quarter to clinch maybe ground?

ninjaiboy22 · 01-25-2006, 06:43 PM

nope, not its a japanese traditional weapon, try the other forums

The Indonesian cabang (tjabang) or trisula, is quite similar to the OKINAWAN sai. The Chinese also have their own version of this weapon.

Yep. This isn't the right forum for this, but don't worry. If it's a problem, a moderator will bump it to another forum.

what do you guys mean? I always have several says in my pocket and one under my hat to defend against spears...

*Perfect anti-traditional comment.

PS: How did I mistake those little gain slicer things (sythe?) for SAIS, I am getting bad on my weapon knowledge, I should stop sniffing so much glue.
