Book Reviews of Tonfa: Karate Weapon of Self-Defense (Literary links to the Orient)
Book Review: Like this book
Summary: 5 Stars
Does good coverage of some basics which might often be missed in order to make something more marketable. The Tonfa is in reality a very practical and very easily manageable weapon, and doesn't require much to extend the basics from no-hands to extend the hands, but is more appropriate perhaps to more traditional forms of martial arts.
